Organized
annually since 2020, the “Make in Viet Nam” Digital Product Awards program aims to implement Prime Ministerial Directive No.
01/CT-TTg on promoting the development of Vietnamese digital technology
enterprises.
The
program honors Vietnamese intellect by showcasing digital products researched,
designed, created, and manufactured in Vietnam that address key national
challenges and expand into global markets. Beyond recognition, it supports commercial promotion, investment attraction, and market expansion for
domestic tech firms.
Marking
its seventh edition in 2026, the program continues to celebrate exceptional
digital products that embody Vietnamese ingenuity, drive comprehensive digital
transformation, and foster the adoption of AI and smart manufacturing across
economic sectors.
The
initiative supports Vietnam’s goal of mastering core, foundational, and
strategic technologies, thereby boosting productivity, operational quality, and
national economic competitiveness.
The
2026 edition features eight categories, including five sector-specific
application groups spanning industry and construction, agriculture and natural
resources, transport and logistics, education and healthcare, and finance,
banking, and trade.
Special
categories continue to recognize products going global, while the newly
introduced AI category underscores Vietnam’s focus on strategic
emerging technologies.
Online submissions opened on August 28 at https://giaithuongmakeinvietnam.mst.gov.vn and will run through October 15, with the official award ceremony scheduled for December 2026.
During six editions from 2020 to 2025, the awards attracted nearly 1,500 entries, with
the Organizing Committee honoring 299 outstanding digital products.
Many
award-winning innovations have been widely applied in practice, solving
practical development issues, scaling across domestic and international
markets, and contributing significantly to the national digital transformation
strategy.
