Hai Phong People's Committee Chairman holds talks with VNPT leaders
Chairman of the Hai Phong People's Committee Do Thanh Trung has called for substantive cooperation with VNPT, focusing on addressing digital transformation challenges and delivering tangible products.
Do Thanh Trung, Deputy Secretary of the Hai Phong Party Committee and Chairman of the City People's Committee, met with leaders of the Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group (VNPT) on the afternoon of October 30 to discuss cooperation orientations and the implementation of digital transformation solutions across the city.
According to VNPT's proposal, the focus of cooperation between Hai Phong and VNPT is to continue upgrading and improving existing digital transformation platforms, particularly the Smart Hai Phong application and the Intelligent Operations Center (IOC).
VNPT proposed developing a digital transformation ecosystem across 114 communes, wards and special zones, applying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and artificial intelligence (AI) in urban management, promoting digital transformation in healthcare and education, and developing the Hai Phong AI Factory.
VNPT pledged to support the city with human resources, technology and infrastructure, mobilize technical experts and provide solutions involving AI, 5G, Cloud and the Internet of Things (IoT).
At the meeting, Chairman of the City People's Committee Do Thanh Trung emphasized that cooperation must deliver practical results, with clearly defined priorities, specific challenges to address and tangible outputs. As an immediate step, it is necessary to review ongoing digital transformation platforms and tasks, clearly assess what has been completed, what is underway and what obstacles remain to identify upgrading and improvement solutions to ensure consistency and effectiveness.
The chairman also suggested studying options for mobilizing resources, pursuing investment partnerships and making effective use of infrastructure and digital platforms, with a view to developing valuable products and services that generate revenue while ensuring a balance of interests among the State, the enterprise and residents.
