      Highlights and Discussions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Opening Remarks and Vision<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      In his opening remarks, Prof. Dr. S\u1eed \u0110\u00ecnh Th\u00e0nh emphasized that Resolution 57 has profound significance for education. He pointed out that universities must balance two roles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Training high-quality human resources on par with international standards;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Leading in scientific research, innovation, and adoption of advanced technologies.
        He described NQ-TW 57 as ushering in a new chapter for Vietnamese higher education\u2014rich in opportunities yet fraught with challenges.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        He further stated that synergy among higher education institutions, industry, and community, coupled with continuous innovation, positions universities to play a pivotal role in advancing science, technology, innovation (STI) and digital transformation nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        At UEH, innovation and entrepreneurship activities span beyond students\u2014extending to secondary and high schools, startups in Vietnam and Southeast Asia\u2014via training programs, competitions like BizTech Hackathon, Sandbox initiatives, incubation and accelerator programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        To date, UEH has supported and incubated over 150 startup projects, with approximately 40% having formed legal entities, and seed-stage investment support reaching nearly USD 700,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        These accomplishments reflect UEH\u2019s ongoing commitment to building a sustainable innovation startup ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
