During the session, Deputy Prime Minister Ho Quoc Dung and the delegation toured the company’s card case and AI camera production lines. MK Vision’s leadership proposed that the Government and relevant ministries finalize a legal framework and establish national standards for AI camera systems—covering connectivity, hardware security, and data encryption—to ensure information safety in large-scale surveillance. They also advocated for a “State-University-Enterprise” collaboration mechanism to master core technologies such as processing chips and optical lenses, while requesting policies to prioritize “Make in Vietnam” technology in public procurement projects.

Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Huy Ngoc addresses the working session.

Vice Chairman Nguyen Huy Ngoc emphasized that having high-tech facilities like MK Vision serves as a vital catalyst for Phu Tho to become a leading hub for AI camera research and manufacturing. He committed that the province would synchronize inter-regional infrastructure, implement tailored incentives for innovative firms, and act as a “Pioneer Market” for testing security authentication platforms in smart city governance. He also directed specialized agencies to assist MK Vision in finalizing its application for “High-Tech Enterprise” status.

Commending MK Vision’s technological autonomy, Deputy Prime Minister Ho Quoc Dung noted that mastering the entire value chain—from mechanics and electronics to AI operating systems—is a vivid testament to the spirit of innovation. He stated that a core mission of the Government’s new term is to remove institutional bottlenecks and create breakthrough policies for “locomotive” technology firms.

Mr. Nguyen Trung Kien, CEO of MK Vision Joint Stock Company, reports on the company’s development status.

In his concluding remarks, the Deputy Prime Minister tasked the Ministry of Science and Technology with drafting evaluation criteria for leading technology enterprises and establishing national standards for hardware encryption. He further urged Phu Tho Province to develop specific local policies to attract high-tech investment, ensuring that science and technology become the decisive pillars of national competitiveness and stature in the new era.
