In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI, has exploded and become the focus of global technological innovation.

Vietnam is no exception to this trend, with more than 70% of domestic technology enterprises interested in investing in AI research and testing. The Government also aims to make Vietnam the leading AI innovation center in ASEAN by 2030.

The event is organized by the Institute of Generative New Intelligence Technology and Education (IGNITE), the National Data Association (NDA), Hanoi Radio & Television and organizing partners.

However, the key issue is not just keeping up with new technology, but finding the answer to the big question: what is the appropriate AI development strategy for Vietnam - a country with unique local data, distinct language and different socio -economic needs?

These issues will be discussed at the workshop “AI Strategy and National Data Architecture, Organizations and Enterprises” (ASDA 1), taking place on September 10, at Fansipan Hall, JW Marriott Hotel Hanoi.

The workshop gathered more than 100 delegates, including leaders of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Assembly's Committee on Science, Technology and Environment, directors of 10 leading research institutes on AI and data, along with technology experts and business leaders.

The event was held in the context of artificial intelligence and data becoming two central pillars of national digital transformation. With the aim of shaping policies and directions for applying new technologies, the workshop focused on two key contents: AI strategy at the national level as well as in each organization and enterprise; and data architecture as a sustainable foundation for the development and application of artificial intelligence.

The highlight of the workshop was the participation of many leading experts and scientists such as Prof. Ho Tu Bao - National Advisory Council; Dr. Ho Duc Thang - Director of the Institute of Digital Technology and Digital Transformation; Prof. Dr. Nguyen Truong Thang - Director of the Institute of Information Technology, Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology; Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Ai Viet - Director of IGNITE, member of the National Advisory Council; Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Xuan Hoai - Director of AI Academy; and MSc. Doan Huu Hau - Director of FPT Digital Transformation Center, member of IGNITE. In addition, the opening ceremony was also attended by Major General Nguyen Ngoc Cuong, Director of the National Data Center.

With the participation of leaders of ministries, legislative agencies, research institutes and technology enterprises, ASDA 1 is expected to become an important forum, contributing to promoting the shaping of AI strategy, building national data architecture and creating a foundation for preparing to promulgate the Vietnam Data Law and AI Law in the near future.
