Vinh Long economic and digital development
Overview
Vinh Long province has demonstrated significant economic growth through increased trade, industrial production, and tourism. During the first eight months of 2026, the province recorded a trade surplus of approximately 1.37 billion USD, driven by a 17.07% increase in exports.
To sustain this momentum and enhance regional competitiveness, provincial authorities are prioritizing digital transformation and the development of high-quality human resources. Efforts include investments in digital infrastructure at Cuu Long University and the introduction of new academic programs in Artificial Intelligence, the Digital Economy, semiconductor industry, and biotechnology.
Local leaders have noted that while infrastructure is the economy’s ‘hardware,’ high-quality human resources serve as the ‘software’ necessary for long-term value. Current initiatives aim to address a shortage of experts in automation and high-tech agriculture to mitigate brain drain to larger economic centers.
