The world has gone deeply into the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and Resolution No.57-NQ/TW on making breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation is a positive signal showing that Vietnam is already embracing and engaging in change.

Unlike countries bound by historical traditions that are very difficult to change, Vietnam, as a developing country, has advantages in developing science, technology, and innovation. This view was shared by Dr Simon Best, senior lecturer in Management and Innovation at Middlesex University.

According to Dr Best, looking at the technological changes that are happening now, the world has gone deeply into the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Resolution No.57-NQ/TW on making breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation is a positive signal showing that Vietnam is already embracing and engaging in change.

He pointed out that Vietnam has enough enterprising and entrepreneurial people that don’t need as much input from other countries in promoting innovation, recommending the country may start by looking carefully at its own resources.

Speaking about the UK’s experiences in developing human resources for science and technology, Dr Best said Vietnam can learn from problems facing UK universities in this process, pointing to a massive transition in terms of how universities can compete against other sources of information.

He said that since the creation of the internet, universities are no longer the creators, holders and disseminators of information. The internet has taken that away while higher education institutions have yet to adjust to this, and this applies to the UK and Vietnam.

He cited an example of AI, which has been around for at least five or six years, many universities in the UK don’t have programmes or modules teaching students, including STEM students, the behavioural aspects of understanding AI, machine learning, automation and so on.

In order to address this, universities cannot just teach the technical aspects, Dr Best said, stressing that STEM programmes need to make sure that students have the understanding of how to apply technical knowledge as well as get additional training in things like entrepreneurship and innovation.

He also stressed the importance of cross-discipline collaboration to develop better human resources to go into industry, businesses and organisations, saying this cross-collaboration across different faculties or different expertise is crucial.

The scholar said STEM has and will underpin all development, but STEM alone is not enough, pointing out the industrial revolution was led by practitioners (engineers and business people), not researchers or academics. Therefore, ways should be found to cut across the silos in industry and academia and create cross-discipline programmes from the pre-university level to university level.

Dr Best pointed out survey after survey of all employers show that the ability to solve complex problems collaboratively are the key skills they need. In this sense, STEM students need to learn soft skills to enable them to develop critical thinking and collaboration skills to work with people from very different backgrounds.

In his opinion, to promote the development of science, technology and innovation, there should be small local hubs that bring together all different-sized businesses to explore and share IT resources and innovations while the distillation of technology from large businesses to smaller businesses (AI, machine learning, automation) should be sped up as well as incentives for smaller businesses to adopt technology should be provided.

In addition, a local-level business ecosystem map that shows how different sectors can support each other should also be built.

To promote efficient collaboration between the state, scientists and entrepreneurs, he suggested Vietnam invest in Erasmus Plus-style projects that bring together industry (both small and large) universities, and educational institutes to develop changes in the educational system.

In this mechanism, the government can invite businesses to identify issues and problems they have around developing human resources, particularly from STEM students, and also how they can collaborate more on ideas and projects. The businesses then bring their ideas to the government which then publishes them and invites universities and other companies to join the project and provide certain funds to cover the cost of running the project.

Speaking about how Vietnamese intellectuals overseas can contribute to their country, Dr Best said millions of ethnic Vietnamese all over the world are an incredible, rich, and valuable resource. He recommended the country adopt mechanisms to build relationship between the country and the overseas Vietnamese intellectual community, encouraging them to come back and engage more with the country.

Vietnam has chosen the right path by prioritizing science and technology development, along with innovation, as key drivers of socio-economic growth, according to Dr. Grigory Trubnikov, an Academician of the Russian Academy of Science and Director of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) in Dubna, commonly known as the Dubna Institute.

In a recent interview , Trubnikov discussed the significance of the Politburo’s Resolution No. 57, which aims to accelerate breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation. He emphasized that this resolution is a crucial step toward unlocking Vietnam’s technological potential.

Trubnikov highlighted Vietnam’s strong economic growth, favorable geographical location, and advantageous climatic conditions as key factors supporting its advancement in scientific, technological, and educational sectors. He also underscored the importance of international cooperation in fostering national scientific development.

According to him, international collaboration offers both economic and intellectual benefits, as each participating country contributes expertise and resources. The collective intellectual potential generated through such partnerships is invaluable. He noted that the JINR openly shares its scientific publications, inventions, and technologies with the global research community, benefiting Vietnam and other member nations.

The Russian expert also praised the growing scientific cooperation between Vietnam and Russia, citing new momentum gained following the Vietnamese government’s approval of a policy to establish a nuclear technology center. The Dubna Institute has played an active role in this initiative, contributing to the design of sophisticated equipment for various fields, including medicine, biology, fundamental research, and advanced materials.

Reflecting on recent years of delegation exchanges, Trubnikov emphasized that these collaborations are paving the way for long-term scientific development in Vietnam. He noted that the nuclear technology center will significantly influence Vietnam’s scientific landscape for the next 30 to 40 years.

Although the project is still in its design phase, Vietnamese scientists at Dubna are actively preparing by enhancing their skills to meet the project’s demands. Trubnikov expressed hope that the center will be established within the next one to two years, with support from Russia’s Rosatom State Atomic Energy Corporation. By then, 20 to 30 Vietnamese scientists trained at Dubna, equipped with practical experience and expertise, will be ready to contribute to their homeland’s scientific progress.

Vietnam, like other first-time nuclear power developers, needs to fully participate in international treaties on nuclear development, experts said.

Relevant authorities are working hard to finalise the amended Law on Atomic Energy and promote international cooperation on nuclear safety, security, and safeguards, making it ready for developing the Centre for Nuclear Energy Science & Technology (CNEST) and nuclear power plant projects.

Actively joining international nuclear conventions

Developing nuclear power is almost the only technology that must fully comply with international supervision and cooperation regulations, particularly in nuclear safety, security, and safeguards – an effective mechanism to ensure the safe, secure, and responsible operation of nuclear power plants and their integration into the national grid.

Therefore, Vietnam, like other first-time nuclear power developers, needs to fully participate in international treaties on nuclear development, experts said.

According to Prof. Pham Duy Hien, an atomic energy expert and former Deputy Director of the Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute (VAEI) under the Ministry of Science and Technology, Vietnam has been actively participating in international conventions under the sponsorship of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). As an official IAEA member since 1957, Vietnam has focused on nuclear safety and security, and the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons.

Vietnam also joined the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), one of the fundamental international legal instruments of the global non-proliferation regime, which holds significant importance for almost all nations, including both nuclear-weapon and non-nuclear-weapon states.

Through its participation in the NPT, Vietnam has received support from the IAEA in maintaining the Da Lat Nuclear Reactor and implementing many important nuclear applications in industry, agriculture, healthcare, and radiation safety.

Most recently, at the regular session of the IAEA Board of Governors in Vienna, Austria, in early March 2025, Vietnam signed bilateral agreements on civil nuclear cooperation with several countries to support the construction of nuclear power plants.

In the process of nuclear power development, nuclear inspection and compensation are key aspects that must be implemented in accordance with international regulations and commitments.

Regarding this issue, Vuong Huu Tan, former Director General of the Vietnam Agency for Radiation and Nuclear Safety (VARNS) under the Ministry of Science and Technology, stated that Vietnam has not yet joined the Convention on Supplementary Compensation for Nuclear Damage. Therefore, a national policy declaration on nuclear compensation is necessary to create a basis for negotiating and signing intergovernmental agreements on the construction of new nuclear power plants and research reactors related to nuclear compensation.

Tan also underlined the need to have detailed regulations on compensation for nuclear damages in the amended Law on Atomic Energy, ensuring alignment with international practices so that it can be applied in intergovernmental agreements on building new nuclear power plants and new research reactors between Vietnam and its partners.

Legal framework for nuclear power development

Regarding the legal framework for nuclear power development, Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Le Xuan Dinh urged VARNS and relevant agencies to re-assess national infrastructure as Vietnam resumes its nuclear power programme. He stressed the need to build a comprehensive plan serving nuclear power development.

It is also important to implement the Politburo’s resolution on science, technology, and digital transformation, and the National Assembly’s resolution on special mechanisms for the Ninh Thuan Nuclear Power Project, he said.

Director of VARNS Nguyen Tuan Khai said that in 2025, the agency will complete the revision of the Law on Atomic Energy. It would enhance and ensure the quality of licensing assessments, and finalise the nuclear radiation safety inspection plan. There would also be a focus on international cooperation activities to strengthen technical capacity and expand projects and partnerships in nuclear safety, security, and safeguards.

The agency will also promote its role as the national focal point for relevant international conventions and treaties to ensure the implementation of national obligations in line with regulations and commitments with international partners.
