As open innovation is being completed and developed by ASEAN countries to attract potential investment and talented human resources, Vietnamese enterprises that want to reach out to the international markets must change their thinking and connect with each other, said Quat.
Taking Singapore as an example, he said that when COVID-19 broke out, Singapore attracted more than 50 major corporations and over 100 universities around the world to help solve this global challenge.
Therefore, the NATEC director expressed his hope that at the Open Innovation Day 2023, the sharing of international experts from Singapore, Tunisia, Finland, and technology directors of large corporations will be valuable experience so that Vietnam can take more effective steps in promoting open innovation.
Vietnam’s first open innovation event - Open Innovation Day – TechTraverse 2023 - draws the participation of more than 100 leading domestic and foreign experts in this field.
