The awards are hosted by the Vietnam Digital Communications Association (VDCA) under the auspices of the Ministry of Information and Communications.

The awards will be presented across four categories, namely outstanding products, services and solutions in the field of ICT; enterprises with successes in digital transformation; government agencies with remarkable levels of digital transformation, and products and solutions that serve the disadvantaged.

VDCA Chairman Nguyen Minh Hong said the awards are organised annually to look for notable Vietnamese-made digital products and promote them in both the domestic and international markets.

They are also designed to encourage government agencies and enterprises to invest more in technologies to help achieve successes in the nation’s overall digital transformation.

Speaking at the launch ceremony on April 6, Da Nang Vice Chairman Le Quang Nam said the city has determined digital transformation as the key to dealing with existing bottlenecks and transform Da Nang into a modern, smart and liveable city.

Entries for the awards can be submitted until July, after which a jury panel will select the best individuals and groups, who will be honoured at an awards ceremony scheduled for October.
