Thua Thien Hue province is considered one of the top localities nationwide in digital transformation. In 2021, it ranked No.2 out of 63 areas in local digital transformation on all three pillars of digital economy - digital society - digital government. After three years of implementation, the Hue-S application has nearly 900,000 accounts, 17 million visits, and almost reaching most citizens. By 2025, the province aims to achieve 100% of the criteria for developing the digital government, more than 90% of public services to level 4, 15-20% GRDP contributed by the digital economy, 100% of cloud deployment agencies, and more than 300 digital technology enterprises.
As a national digital transformation pioneer, FPT participated in critical activities, including Seminars, Forums, and Exhibitions at the Digital Transformation Week - Hue 2022 with the theme "Digital transformation to create momentum to accelerate socio-economic development."
Moderating the Seminar "Developing digital technology enterprises and consulting on digital transformation solutions for industries and localities in Thua Thien Hue province", Mr. Nguyen Van Khoa, Chairman of VINASA and CEO of FPT, emphasized that VINASA and businesses would accompany the provincial government to develop the most effective digital transformation strategy and implementation plan. Furthermore, the Corporation was committed to investing heavily to promote R&D activities in digital technology and sending staff to support the province in the digital transformation process. In particular, VINASA would consult on digital transformation for the province's cultural heritage to facilitate the digital economy and digital society.
Sharing at the Forum "Digital transformation creates momentum to accelerate socio-economic development" on the topic of 'Data - The key foundation to promote digital transformation of Hue," Mr. Nguyen Van Khoa said that without a data sharing scheme, it would lead to significant difficulties for the digital transformation process to build a digital nation. Vietnam has 10.6 thousand open data sets, equal to 10% of Australia and 0.75% of Europe. According to VINASA's analysis, Thua Thien Hue is one of the pioneering data-sharing localities. However, unstructured data cannot be exploited effectively without a planning strategy. Therefore, he proposed that the province develop a plan for constructing, influencing, and sharing data so as to enrich and standardize effective data exploitation, serving the province's socio-economic development activities.
