Both sides have been implementing the Scientific and Technological Agreement inked in 2013 with a focus on information exchange, technology transfer and training, Nghi said. 
He also spoke highly of the contribution of the scientists to the country’s socio-economic development over the years. 
During the seminar, scientists in various fields shared ideas on several matters, including technology transfer in Vietnam, the implementation of joint research projects with counterparts in the home country, and the training of young Vietnamese scientists. 
They also gave feedback on policies towards overseas Vietnamese scientists, practical application of research projects and how to establish a network between domestic and overseas scientists.
