The Vietnam – ASOCIO Smart City Summit 2021 will be held next month by the Vietnam Software Association and the Asian-Oceanian Computing Industry Organisation (ASOCIO).

Themed “Smart City,” the event will be held from November 2 – 6 via video conference to discuss latest technology trends in smart city. It is expected to be attended by about 10,000 delegates from Vietnam and overseas.

The event provides a platform for experts to share information and practices in developing smart cities and improving living standards of urban citizens through 14 discussions across five topics – Digital Government, Smart Real Estate, Smart Industrial Parks, Products/Solutions for Smart City, and Startup with Smart City.

It also features a virtual exhibition of e-Government solutions, services and platforms in multiple areas.

The government approved a project for sustainable development of smart cities in Vietnam from 2018 – 2025, with a vision towards 2030, in August 2018. Since then, some 40 cities and provinces in the country have developed and adopted their own smart city plans./.
