Hai Phong (VNA) - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh attended the opening ceremony of the National Innovative Entrepreneurship Day (Techfest Vietnam 2024) themed “Joining hands to develop Vietnam's innovative startup ecosystem” in the northern port city of Hai Phong on November 27.

In his remarks, the PM stressed that the Party and the State always pay special attention to science, technology, and innovation, considering them one of the top national policies for rapid and sustainable development.

Innovative startups are seen as a new motivation for growth, creating new productive forces for development in the new era, he noted.

Highlighting the contents of resolutions, strategies for socio-economic development, and laws and decrees related to innovation and startups, Chinh stated that under the decisive leadership of the Government and the Prime Minister, sectors and localities have implemented synchronously, decisively, and effectively tasks and solutions, achieving important results in developing the national innovative startup ecosystem.

He underlined the importance of time, intelligence, and decisiveness in order to catch up, move forward, and make breakthroughs in this scheme. He praised the efforts and important initial results that sectors, localities, and the Vietnamese startup community have achieved in recent times.

He held that Vietnam faces a great opportunity but also many challenges in science, technology, and innovation, and that the key requirement for developing the national innovative startup ecosystem is to attract resources from national and international corporations; and nurture and develop more tech unicorns in emerging technology fields.

He stressed that innovative startups require the collective effort, consensus and unity of the entire political system, the community, citizens, and businesses, noting that it is necessary to place people, especially youths; and businesses at the centre - as both subjects and the ultimate goal - serving as the driving force and the most valuable resource for development.

Innovative startups require change in mindset, and new awareness and approaches, he said, pointing out that this must be bold in thinking, taking action, and pioneering; accepting risks, and stepping up to challenge themselves, for the benefit and a brighter future for the nation.

He requested solutions to develop Vietnam's innovative startup ecosystem. These focus on perfecting legal framework for innovation and entrepreneurship; identifying priority areas to create new production forces and strategic sectors such as green economy, digital economy, and cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, semiconductors, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things; outlining orientations for innovative startups; ensuring financial resources and facilities; developing high-quality human resources and fostering creative entrepreneurship movements; and boosting international integration related to innovative startups.

He called on the business community, investors, and people to actively participate in creative startup activities, helping Vietnam to quickly catch up with other countries in the region and around the world.

The Government will create all favourable conditions to support and promote the development of innovative startup ecosystems, with the spirit of protecting the legitimate rights and interests of businesses, investors, and citizens, he said.

The networks bring together universities, research institutes and domestic and foreign businesses. Members will work closely in training, research, and technology transfer by sharing curricula, improving faculty capacity, providing access to laboratories and research facilities, and jointly implementing science and technology projects.

Vietnam is actively yet cautiously preparing for the construction of its first nuclear power plant in Ninh Thuan (now the south-central coastal province of Khanh Hoa). The resumption of the programme after years of suspension carries considerable significance for the nation’s development in a new era as it strives to gradually reduce and ultimately phase out coal-fired power to realise the Government’s commitment to Net Zero by 2050.
