Following the global trend, the Vietnamese Government aims to turn AI into a driving force of development and make it a top priority in growth policies.
Ministry of Planning and Investment had set up a digital ecosystem for innovation and start-ups. The ministry had proposed to the Prime Minister a national innovation center, which supports technological breakthroughs and creative ideas of Vietnamese entrepreneurs.
The Ministry of Planning and Investment and Ministry of Science and Technology would accompany the AI community to help them address challenges in the process of studying and developing AI in Vietnam.
The Ministry of Planning and Investment had created favorable conditions to attract domestic and international investment in AI. At the Vietnam Venture Summit in June this year, 18 local and foreign investment funds committed investment of US$425 million for Vietnamese start-ups in the next three years.
Putting human resource development at the core of the AI industry, the Vietnamese innovation network had attracted technological experts.
The Ministry planned to expand the network of Vietnamese AI experts in other countries and establish a global fund to train high-quality human resources for the industry.
According to a head of Information Technology Institute of Hanoi University of Science and Technology the Vietnamese AI community is young and has potential to grow quickly. Three years ago, overseas Vietnamese who were experts in the technology sector started to come back to Vietnam to develop AI and help the local community interact more with international counterparts.
The Vietnamese AI community so far involves foreign investors, associations, connecting specialists with State agencies and the market.
An alliance of AI communities in Vietnam debuted last month, including the Digital Transformation community, Machine Learning community, Google Developer community and Business Intelligence community.
