Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc and delegates cut the ribbon to open the Industry 4.0 Summit and Expo 2018 co-hosted by the Vietnamese Government and the Party Central Committee's Economic Commission in Hanoi on July 13, 2018 |
He addressed the Industry 4.0 Summit and Exhibition 2018 entitled “Vision and Development Strategy in the 4th Industrial Revolution”, in Hanoi on Friday: "What should we do to leverage the 4th Industrial Revolution? What policies and laws should be adopted? Another issue is human resource development. In Vietnam, 40% of the workforce is involved in agriculture with low productivity. That’s why the education sector should provide knowledge and skills to workers.”
At the event, Sophia, the world's first AI-powered robot talked to delegates about the 4th Industrial Revolution, automation and the developmental challenges. Sophia is the first non-human Innovation Champion for UNDP in Asia and the Pacific.
