Binh made the statement during a working breakfast, jointly organized by the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and FPT Corporation in Davos, Switzerland on Wednesday as part of the World Economic Forum (WEF).

A high-ranking Vietnamese delegation also participated in the discussion with global pharmaceutical companies on the future of Vietnamese pharmaceuticals in the digital age, focusing on innovation and technology during the event.

Opening the discussion, Binh emphasized that the pharmaceutical industry would be one of the leading sectors applying AI, particularly in the development of vaccines and medications.

“With over 10 years of experience in AI research and development and collaborations with top global organizations and experts, we are witnessing numerous new AI-driven ideas emerging across various industries,” Binh remarked.

Meanwhile, representatives from major pharmaceutical companies, including AstraZeneca, Roche, Sanofi, Novartis, MSD, Pfizer, Merck, Sumitomo Pharma, and others, praised recent legal improvements in Vietnam’s Pharmacy Law.

They agreed that the revised law would enhance patient access to new drugs and vaccines.

These companies also welcomed Vietnam’s commitment to advancing new technologies, as reflected in Resolution 57-NQ/TW, which promotes breakthroughs in science, innovation, and national digital transformation.

Politburo member and secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee Nguyen Van Nen also spoke at the seminar, highlighting the critical role of technology, especially AI and data, in the healthcare sector.

He stressed that these innovations would improve lives by increasing longevity and overall well-being.

“Ho Chi Minh City will introduce pilot mechanisms for pharmaceutical companies to implement their proposals transparently, paving the way for nationwide adoption,” Nen stated.
