New mechanisms and policies, especially the Law on Science, Technology and Innovation and the Law on Digital Technology Industry, are expected to create an environment to truly attract, retain, and maximise the potential of talented individuals, thereby bringing strategic breakthroughs to Viet Nam’s spearhead technological sectors.

The Law on Digital Technology Industry, which will officially take effect from January 1, 2026, marks a significant turning point for Viet Nam as it strives to rise in the digital era. It establishes a solid legal framework to guide the development of Viet Nam’s digital technology industry, semiconductor, artificial intelligence (AI), and digital asset.

The 15th National Assembly passed the Law on Digital Technology Industry and the revised Law on Chemicals during its ongoing ninth session on June 14.
