Hanoi (VNA) – Ho Chi Minh City is set to launch a pilot version of its digital investment promotion platform on July 9, offering a live demonstration of its data system, support tools and core functions to state management agencies, businesses, investors, industry associations and international organisations.

The debut affirms the city’s push to overhaul investment promotion towards a more modern, transparent and technology-led model that uses digital tools and artificial intelligence to deliver sharper support for investors.

The platform is engineered to enforce a standardised project pipeline through a unified data architecture. It digitises the way investment requests are received and coordinated, assigns clear responsibilities to each agency and unit, keeps traceability records to harden accountability and generates real-time data dashboards for management and decision-making.

The move feeds into a wider campaign to unlock sci-tech and innovation breakthroughs, making digital transformation a key driver of double-digit economic growth and sharpening local competitiveness in the new growth phase./.
