Accordingly, the centre will provide support, in terms of working venues and ICT cooperation programmes, for the RoK’s ICT businesses investing in six areas, namely e-government, smart training, smart city, smart healthcare, smart business and smart traffic.
In addition, the RoK Government will develop special assistance programmes in the time ahead to contribute to the development of Vietnam’s IT industry and the building of the startup environment in the ICT sector./.
