Focus on research, development and application of strategic technology
Speaking at the Congress of the Party Committee of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung acknowledged that under the close leadership of the Party Committee of the Academy, the solidarity, unanimity, and continuous efforts of all cadres, party members, civil servants, public employees, and workers, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology has achieved many outstanding achievements, making important contributions to the development of science and technology in the country. On behalf of the Government Party Committee, the Deputy Prime Minister commended and congratulated the achievements of the Party Committee of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.

Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung emphasized that the regional and world situation continues to witness unprecedented profound changes, the fourth industrial revolution is taking place strongly, science and technology are identified by the Party and State as the top national policy, the driving force and foundation for the country's rapid and sustainable development. Recently, the Politburo has issued the "four pillars", in which Resolution 57/NQ-TW has strategic significance, guiding the development of science and technology of the country in the new era of strong, civilized and prosperous development of the nation.
At the same time, the Resolution is like a strong call, creating a new vitality and promoting the comprehensive development of the intellectuals and scientists of the whole country in general and of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology in particular. The Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology has a particularly important position, being a leading multidisciplinary and multi-field scientific and technological research organization of the country.

To continue promoting this pioneering role, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Chi Dung suggested that during the 2025-2030 term, the Party Committee of the Academy of Science and Technology should focus on a number of key tasks.
Firstly, focus on doing well the work of Party building and improving the leadership capacity and fighting strength of the entire Party. Continuously pay attention to building a clean and strong Party organization in terms of ideology, politics, organization, inspection and mass mobilization, considering this a key task to ensure the victory of the renovation cause; at the same time, regularly monitor and grasp the situation and ideological developments of the contingent of cadres, Party members and workers to have timely and effective measures to handle arising issues; strengthen internal solidarity, expand democracy along with raising the sense of organizational discipline; pay attention to the work of Party development associated with improving the quality of the contingent of Party members; strengthen the work of inspection and supervision of Party organizations and Party members.
Second, continue to focus on improving scientific and technological research capacity; invest in developing basic research and expanding new research directions, anticipating world technology trends; develop core technology and source technology, strategic technology to create a knowledge foundation, promote applied research, closely link research with the practical needs of society, industries, localities, and enterprises, prioritize research fields that are breakthrough and capable of creating high-tech and valuable products.
In particular, attention should be paid to the research, development and application of 11 strategic technology groups and strategic technology product groups recently issued by the Prime Minister. The Academy needs to invest synchronously and modernly in facilities and equipment for research, aiming for laboratories that meet international standards, turning laboratories into technology "incubators".
According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the Academy of Science and Technology must innovate its approach, meet new trends and requirements set by the Party and State; form strong research groups, invest in good facilities. From there, strive to do new things, difficult things, big things, important things.
Third, focus on building and developing high-quality human resources; strengthen training and fostering leading scientific staff and talented young scientists; create mechanisms and policies to attract and promote talents, especially Vietnamese scientists abroad; build a professional and dynamic working environment, encourage creativity and innovation.
Fourth, continue to promote international cooperation and integration in science and technology; proactively participate in international research networks and major scientific programs in the world. Along with that, strengthen cooperation with leading research institutes and universities in the world to exchange experiences, transfer technology and train human resources; promote the role of a bridge in bringing advanced science and technology to Vietnam and introducing Vietnam's scientific achievements to the world.
Fifth, participate in contributing opinions to the documents of the 14th National Party Congress, contribute opinions to the documents and elect the delegation to attend the 1st National Party Congress. On the basis of the Draft documents, each delegate promotes democracy and intelligence, focuses on discussing, analyzing, and contributing opinions to the Draft documents so that the Party's documents are highly actionable, contributing to deciding important issues of the country.
The Deputy Prime Minister believes that, with the spirit of solidarity and high determination, the Party Committee of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology will lead the Institute to successfully complete the goals and tasks set by the Congress, continue to reap more successes, and be worthy of being the "cradle" of Vietnamese science and technology.
