Enhancing digital transformation in Phú Thọ was discussed at a recent forum held by the provincial Department of Information and Communication.
Chairman of Phú Thọ Province Bùi Văn Quang said that his province considers digital transformation as a critical and long-term task that encompasses both the political and economic systems. This indicates that the province recognises the profound impact of digital transformation on various aspects of society.
Quang said digital transformation is a breakthrough solution to achieving socio-economic development goals. By embracing digital technologies and practices, businesses and the government can drive innovation, optimise processes, and enhance productivity, ultimately contributing to the overall development of the province.
Quang has asked the Department of Information and Communications to work with relevant bodies and agencies in the province to implement digital transformation solutions. The coordination aims to provide resources, guidance, and incentives to support businesses in their digital transformation efforts in the period 2023-2025. In addition, digital transformation awards should be given to inspire and encourage other businesses to embark on their digital transformation journeys.
Under the solutions, businesses will be selected to participate in the province's digital transformation support program annually. In 2023, Phú Thọ Province aims to have approximately 150 businesses from diverse sectors participate in pilot programs for digital technology platforms. The selection of these businesses will prioritise those that are prepared to undergo digital transformation and fulfill their financial obligations to the State.
Director of Phú Thọ Department of Information and Communications Trinh Hùng Sơn said the forum aimed to guide and assist businesses in digital transformation, innovate production and methods, optimise resources, reduce costs, and improve productivity and quality while enhancing competitiveness.
This was also an opportunity for service providers to meet, exchange, discuss, share experiences and introduce solutions, while connecting supply and demand with businesses. In addition, it also helped management agencies to grasp the difficulties and problems facing businesses when implementing digital transformation, thereby providing practical and effective solutions.
