Digital economic development is an inevitable trend around the world, and Vietnam is also not out of this disposition. Vietnam’s digital economy goal is to reach about 20% of GDP by 2025. It is forecasted that by 2030, the digital economy will enhance Vietnam’s GDP by 7 – 16%, equivalent to roughly 28 – 62 billion USD. The government has launched several guidelines, policies, and solutions to promote the country’s digital economy, in which people are one of the key factors. New human resources with digital thinking and digital skills will be the main force to deploy, realize, and decide the development of the digital economy.

From a business perspective, the demand for searching, building, and developing digital talents is increasing significantly as it plays a role in successfully transforming into a digital enterprise. According to the FPT Digital survey, businesses with a more mature digital workforce will bring in 12% to 20% higher revenue and profit than ones with less mature digital staff. At the same time, employee engagement and retention have increased by more than 20% at businesses that promote a digital workforce. These enterprises are also two to three times more likely to improve their recruitment efforts and talent management processes.
