Chairman Mai said as Ho Chi Minh City is in the process of becoming a hub of innovation and creativity, which requires preparation for an ecosystem regarding institutions, infrastructure and human resources, he hoped to receive advice and support from Rosler in this field to create an environment conductive for innovation.
He revealed that the city is fine-tuning legal frameworks for the establishment of a national-scale innovation and creativity centre there. Therefore, joint work to set up a physical centre in the Saigon Hi-Tech Park (SHTP) could be launched immediately.
Speaking highly of Honorary Consul of Vietnam Rosler’s positive activities such as joining the Start-up Award programme to honour start-ups in the city, Mai sought the guest’s assistance in building the city's brand, attracting foreign investors and overseas Vietnamese to the city's development, firstly in the SHTP.
For his part, Honorary Consul of Vietnam Rosler expressed readiness to help the city with hi-quality workforce development.
He said building an innovation and creativity centre in the city is a sound direction and he is willing to introduce major investors to the city, including partners from Germany and Switzerland to share experience and cooperate in this field.
According to him, foreign investors are interested in the city's potential and wish that the city would continue improving infrastructure, digitalisation and sustainable development in the near future.
