European National Innovation Systems: Trends, Policies and Challenges - Lesson Learned for Vietnam

International Conference co-organised by Konrad Adenauer Stiftung and Institute of European Studies

In the context of a rapidly developing knowledge economy, National Innovation Systems (NIS) can play a crucial role in the economic growth of countries. European countries have paid special attention to promoting scientific and technological innovation, enhancing the combination of scientific and technological innovation with economic growth. At the same time, they proposed strategies and policies to promote the development of NIS. Vietnam’s NIS is in the process of being finalized, so there are still many limitations such as: the policies to promote technology development in Vietnam have not been given high priority, and they have not yet been integrated into the country’s industrial, investment and trade policies. Vietnam's industrial policy pays little attention to developing domestic technological capabilities as an indispensable factor in the industrialization process. The process of commercializing innovative products is not really effective, reducing the motivation for NIS development. Thus, in the framework of research cooperation, the Institute for European Studies together with KAS organizes the conference entitled "European National Innovation Systems: Trends, policies, and challenges - Lessons learned for Vietnam”
