Speaking at the congress, General Secretary To Lam said: “We are entering the dawn of the digital age, a period when data has become an important resource and means of production, becoming new energy, even the blood of the digital economy .”
Data-centric digital transformation is fundamentally changing the way we live, work and thrive. The opportunities and challenges of the digital age are on par with us. There are many opportunities and many challenges.
“Our task, especially the comrades and friends sitting here, of the National Data Association at this time is to find a way to shift the current balance, reduce challenges, lean towards opportunities, and increase opportunities,” said the General Secretary .
