Australian Dr Lucy Cameron, lead author of the report “Vietnam’s Future Digital Economy Towards 2030 and 2045”, said the country should carefully navigate a number of risks while undertaking digital transformation. But to sustain high growth, Vietnam will need to overcome substantial challenges, Cameron said. “Strong leadership and institutions will be key in Vietnam’s development across all economic sectors, including the private sector,” he said. Australia has worked with Vietnam to identify seven mega-trends affecting its future digital economy. Mega-trends informed the report’s development of four potential future scenarios, which provide a blueprint for decision-makers to plan for Vietnam’s future digital economy.
