The week-long National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam has kicked off in Hanoi, bringing together delegates to chart the country's economic roadmap through 2030. With a clear emphasis on tech-driven growth and productivity, the congress is expected to define key priorities for the next decade.
China has already extended its congratulations on the event, highlighting the close ties between the two nations. As Vietnam looks to integrate emerging technologies into its development plans, observers see opportunities for deeper regional collaboration and foreign investment.
In an exclusive discussion on CGTN, anchor Hou Na interviewed Dylan Le from Vietnam Today News about what lies ahead. “The congress will likely focus on digital infrastructure, innovation ecosystems, and workforce upskilling,” Le said. “Delegates are talking about harnessing AI, blockchain, and green tech to boost productivity across sectors by 2030.”
Young entrepreneurs and tech enthusiasts will be watching for policies that support startups, expand broadband access, and foster partnerships with global tech firms. Meanwhile, thought leaders point to the importance of sustainable growth models that balance digital transformation with social equity and environmental stewardship.
As the congress progresses, digital nomads and travelers will be curious to see how improved connectivity and smart-city initiatives shape the future of urban life in Vietnam. The outcomes of this meeting could set the tone for Southeast Asia's tech landscape in the years to come.
