In Nghe An, the technology supply-demand connection point and the Technology Exchange were established and put into operation. However, the implementation of technology connection activities is still limited due to limited technology database, equipment, and staff.
Besides, scientific research projects are still academic and have not been widely applied in production practices. Many annual topics have not been implemented, and a market for science and technology has not been built.
Therefore, a new model needs to be created to act as a "bridge", or a market connecting the needs of scientists and businesses with universities - the place that directly trains human resources for society.
