Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Pham Dai Duong said that Vietnam determines to transform from a consumer to a provider of future technologies and services, ready to stay at the front door of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0).
Duong made the remarks at the Plenary Session of the 2017 Vietnam-Japan Scientific Exchange Meeting (VJSE2017), themed “Connecting people: Shaping the future”, held at the Shibaura Institute of Technology in Tokyo recently.

He stressed the important role of overseas Vietnamese researchers in contributing to the development of Vietnam’s science and technology sector and reiterated the ministry’s support to activities connecting research communities as the VJSE has done.
