In an interview recently granted to a Vietnam News Agency correspondent, Dr. Anh said founded on November 4, 2011, the VINEU gathers experts and intellectuals not only in Europe but also around the world to contribute to Vietnam’s development.
They offered reports at events related to circular economy, digital transformation and support for start-ups that were held by the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee and Hue Innovation Hub. The VINEU also held trips to Vietnam for European businesspeople to connect with their Vietnamese partners.
In the near future, the network will partner with the Vietnamese Youth and Student Federation and the Union of Vietnamese People Associations in Europe, and the network of Vietnamese intellectuals and innovative start-ups globally to develop membership and hold thematic discussions to share experience and expertise, as well as propel technological transfer to Vietnam, he said.
According to him, with its important role in ASEAN, Vietnam will play an instrumental part in lifting ASEAN-EU ties to a greater height.
He also hailed Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh’s visits to Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Belgium as an opportunity to strengthen Vietnam's trust and relations with the three nations and Europe in general.
In order to take advantage of the shifting of global supply chains to Southeast Asian nations following the pandemic, he called on the Vietnamese firms to improve their competitiveness by adopting technological advances, digital transformation and diversifying supply chains.
The Vietnamese Government should ensure energy safety and environment protection to achieve sustainable economic development, he said.
