In the trend of scientific and technological development, the shift from research activities to technology development and innovation plays an increasingly important role in national development.
Despite many advances in scientific research and initiatives to convert research results into practical products, our country still faces many challenges in creating an effective innovation ecosystem, from mechanisms, policies, infrastructure, human resources and cooperation between research institutes, universities and enterprises.
In that context, Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW dated December 22, 2024 of the Politburo on breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation and national digital transformation with breakthrough perspectives, is assessed by scientists as laying an important foundation for creating a complete ecosystem, so that scientific research does not only stop at creating knowledge but is also transformed into technology, applied in practice, promoting innovation.
Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW mentioned solutions to promote applied research; increase investment in research and development; reform the management method of science and technology tasks; develop research institutes and universities into strong research entities; closely combine research, application and training; encourage public-private cooperation in technology development...
According to experts, many countries have succeeded in building an innovation ecosystem, putting scientific research into practice and promoting the process of technological development. For example, countries such as the US, Japan, South Korea, etc. have policies to encourage close cooperation between universities, research institutes and businesses; the innovation system is not only supported by the Government but also has the active participation of the private sector, with venture capital funds and businesses always looking for opportunities to transform scientific inventions into commercial products, etc.
Vietnam has achieved some success in the transition from scientific research to technology development. Some large enterprises have pioneered in applying research results into practice such as Vingroup, FPT, BKAV...
These successes not only help enhance Vietnam's position in the international market but also create motivation for other businesses to pursue innovation.
To promote this shift, many opinions say that it is necessary to build a clear and transparent legal framework for commercializing research results, protecting the rights of researchers and creating opportunities for businesses to access new technologies without worrying about legal risks as is the case today.
In addition, there should be financial support policies and tax incentives for enterprises' research and development activities to promote enterprises' investment in technology development.
Currently, businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, still face many difficulties in accessing capital sources for research and development. Many businesses suggest that resources should be focused on technology research projects that play a fundamental and comprehensive role.
One of the most important factors to promote the process of technological development is close cooperation between research institutes, universities and enterprises to effectively bring research results from the laboratory to the market. Therefore, there should be policies to encourage cooperation, such as joint research funding and tax reduction for enterprises participating in joint research projects.
On the part of scientists, it is necessary to see the social issues that are needed to develop research topics for technology development. Novelty in research must refer to the factor that can be applied in practice, for example, being able to bring new products and services to the market or new production processes into production.
Key laboratories should be opened for shared use by businesses to leverage resources, promote business participation in research, and accelerate the emergence of breakthrough technologies for national development.
The budget for research and development activities must be resolutely implemented according to the fund mechanism, through science and technology development funds, to meet the timeliness of research activities and promptly have technologies to serve socio-economic development.
Enterprises need to strengthen public-private partnerships to support the implementation of programs, projects and research orders for research institutes and universities. Large enterprises need to pioneer in research, application of science and technology and innovation to become leading enterprises. To promote the development of breakthrough technology, technology enterprises will need to cooperate with leading technology companies in the world, so there needs to be regulations guiding this cooperation to guide enterprises towards long-term benefits.
