Overview

About STCI

The Science, Technology and Commerce Institute (STCI) is an application-oriented science and technology organization that operates by connecting scientific research, technology development, human resource training, technology transfer, commercialization and international cooperation.

STCI aims to transform knowledge and scientific and technological results into practical, applicable solutions, while building an environment that connects scientists, experts, training institutions, businesses, workers, investors, markets and domestic and international partners.

STCI does not treat research, training, transfer and international cooperation as separate activities. They are connected into one ecosystem that brings knowledge closer to real needs and creates socio-economic value.

Brand statement

Science creates knowledge. Technology creates solutions. Training creates capability. People create impact. Commercialization creates value. STCI connects them all.

STCI sees science and technology not only as research results, but as the ability to turn knowledge into solutions, solutions into applications, and applications into value for people, businesses and society.

Positioning chain: KNOWLEDGE → TECHNOLOGY → PEOPLE → MARKET → IMPACT

Why STCI?

Effective mechanisms are still needed to connect scientific research with the practical needs of businesses. Technology only creates impact when it is chosen correctly, transferred correctly and operated by capable people. Likewise, training is only truly meaningful when tied to professional competence, employment and the development needs of society.

STCI is positioned as a connecting platform that helps close four gaps: Knowledge ↔ Technology; Technology ↔ Business; Training ↔ Employment; Vietnam ↔ The World.
