The three-day forum, jointly held by the Association of Vietnamese Scientists and Experts (AVSE Global) and the Vietnam Community Liaison Committee in Singapore (VNAS), centres on the theme “Connect – Converge – Create: Empowering the Future with Technology”. Discussions focus on three strategic issues of semiconductors, AI, and financial technology.

Prof. Nguyen Duc Khuong, AVSE Chairman, described the forum as an important event, helping connect Vietnamese intellectual networks globally to find ways to make breakthroughs in emerging technology sectors.

Vietnamese Ambassador to Singapore Tran Phuoc Anh emphasised the forum's timing, as bilateral relations between Vietnam and Singapore are set to reach a new high, noting innovation would create the foundation for Vietnam's socio-economic development in the new era as outlined by Party General Secretary To Lam.

There are some 6 million overseas Vietnamese, a huge resource for national development, he underscored.

Professor Vu Minh Khuong from the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy shared insights into Singapore's remarkable transformation from a third world to a first world nation, suggesting valuable lessons for Vietnam's development path. He highlighted Singapore is interested in Vietnam's development ambitions and anticipates Party chief To Lam's upcoming visit to the country.
