Especially the implementation of some good models and practices in Binh Duong in smart city construction, typically applying the triple helix model (Government; Enterprises; Universities – Research Institutes) or building a typical 5-layer model in the Binh Duong Innovation Region Project from planning urban infrastructure, technical infrastructure, and traffic to building a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship; comprehensively developing and balancing the economy; digital transformation, development of digital economy and digital society; developing and attracting human resources.

Chairman of the PPC Vo Van Minh speaks in response

Speaking in response, Mr. Vo Van Minh - Chairman of Binh Duong PPC said that since 2016, Binh Duong has developed the Binh Duong Smart City Project to create a mechanism for knowledge transfer in society between the state, universities and enterprises, thereby stimulating creativity in the economy, creating changes that affect all social classes, gradually transforming from labor-intensive to knowledge-intensive, technology-intensive, helping investors solve their problems and Binh Duong to solve their own. In order to learn, strengthen and realize those perceptions, Binh Duong actively participates in extensive connections with the international community to seek out communities with similar development views to share and learn from each other, that's why Binh Duong has become a member of ICF.

Joining ICF helps Binh Duong connect and learn many things from other members in the world, thereby affirming and continuing to persevere with the direction that Binh Duong authorities, people and enterprises have chosen. Being honored by ICF 4 times in a row in TOP 21 and in 2021 being honored in TOP 7 cities with typical smart city development strategies affirms that the choice of approach of Binh Duong Smart City Project is in line with the general trend of the world.

Within the framework of the Opening Ceremony of the event to honor TOP7 Intelligent Communities, a Forum with the theme "Post-pandemic recovery, how digital innovation drives growth in our community" took place, for each community to voice their views on the development of smart cities, smart communities, and share common vision and values.
