Based on the guidance of Party General Secretary To Lam and the tasks outlined in Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo and Resolution No. 03/NQ-CP of the Government, VAST is positioned to become Vietnam's leading science and technology hub.

Regarding the organizational structure, the Deputy PM emphasized the need for further study, viewing this as an opportunity to restructure the organization of the Academy.
He highlighted the importance of selecting visionary individuals and research group leaders capable of conducting scientific research of contemporary value, aligned with regional and global development trends.
VAST is also expected to uphold its leading role in science and technology research, serving as one of the State's top advisory bodies for policy-making, science and technology development strategies, and national socio-economic development.
To achieve these objectives, VAST is tasked with enhancing its research capacity through the training and development of high-quality human resources, promoting the transfer and commercialization of research outcomes, upgrading infrastructure, diversifying financial resources, increasing autonomy, boosting international cooperation, and elevating its scientific influence.
The Deputy PM urged VAST to foster a spirit of "dare to think, dare to do, dare to try, dare to pioneer" in basic research and strategic technology development. He called on the academy to overcome obstacles and achieve breakthroughs, contributing to Vietnam's steady progress toward becoming a developed, high-income, prosperous, and strong nation by 2045.
