The 55.6 million USD project, supported by the World Bank is being carried out nationwide from 2013 to 2018.
The “Innovation Targeting People on Low Incomes in Vietnam” project aims to create opportunities for Vietnamese businesses to access to loans and capitals so that they can enhance their proficiency in implementing innovations through applying, perfecting and expanding their operations, as well as commercialising technology to improve living standards for low-income people.
Developing traditional medicine, information technology and communication, agriculture and aquiculture are at the heart of the project.
