The concept of strategic technologies has been introduced for the first time in Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW, which identified institutions, human resources, infrastructure, and data as the core pillars for encouraging innovation.

The government must assign tasks to enterprises according to the national strategy with ambitious goals, and must create challenges, allowing State-owned enterprises to assume a leadership role in green development, digital development, governance and technology, self-reliance and international integration and especially in digital transformation.
Digital transformation is the 4th industrial revolution. The technologies of the 4th industrial revolution are mainly digital technologies to support digital transformation.
Digital transformation is the economics of knowledge. Digital transformation creates a digital economy, which relies on information and data as its resources and is based on algorithms, while algorithms and information in turn are knowledge.
Digital transformation is the convergence of science and technology, of the knowledge economy, of the 4th industrial revolution and of innovation. Digital transformation is the driving force for development that can transform Vietnam into a prosperous and developed country.
Digital transformation is a comprehensive revolution that involves everyone. Only when all people use digital platforms and digital applications for their business and everyday purposes will digital transformation be considered successful.
