This is a program approved by the Prime Minister in 2013, in order to focus on developing synchronously the infrastructure system, human resources and intermediary institutions of the science and technology market in order to improve operational efficiency. application and technology transfer; promote supply and demand relationships for science and technology products and services. Mr. Pham Duc Nghiem – Deputy Director of the Department of Market Development and Science and Technology Enterprises (Ministry of Science and Technology), in charge of Program 2075 – visited the exhibition booth of the research team including Pharmacist Phan Ke Son and Assoc. Dr. Ha Phuong Thu (Institute of Materials Science). This commercialization project is chaired and implemented by the Institute of Materials Science, in collaboration with CVI Cosmetics Pharmaceutical Joint Stock Company with funding from the State Budget and reciprocal funding from enterprises – companies. CVI company for raw materials, machinery and equipment. The close cooperation between scientists and enterprises not only helps the successful research of the project but also transfers the research results into commercial products to the market. However, during the implementation of the project, the Department of Market Development and Science and Technology Enterprises of the Ministry of Science and Technology – the focal unit to implement the 2075 Program – played an important bridging role. , while actively following the project’s tasks, completing the legal environment, improving the efficiency of state management of the S&T market; promote S&T market service activities as well as technology demand and improve technology transfer capacity. Through the 2075 program, with the support of the Department of Market Development and science and technology enterprises, the project has completed the technological process of manufacturing functional foods from three-size nanomaterials and commercializing them. successful technological process as well as functional food products. In addition, the 2075 Program has helped promote the connection between state agencies and agencies, science and technology enterprises, innovative start-ups and intermediaries and thereby improve effective commercialization of technology, contributing to attracting stakeholders to the S&T market.

In April 2021, the Prime Minister issued a document assigning the Ministry of Science and Technology to assume the prime responsibility for, and coordinate with the Ministry of Industry and Trade in, soon finalizing and promulgating national technical regulations on gasoline, diesel fuel, and biofuel corresponding to emission standards at level 5. The Ministry of Industry and Trade is responsible for directing petrol and oil suppliers to have a plan to supply gasoline and diesel at level 5 to ensure that they meet demand for use and are in sync with the application roadmap. emission standards level 5. According to the Vietnam Register, with this regulation, the Euro 5 emission standard only applies to new cars when the vehicle type approval certificate is issued. The emission test method for new vehicles is carried out in a dedicated laboratory. Euro 5 emissions do not apply when periodically checking with cars in circulation. For cars in circulation, the emission standards are applied according to the rapid test method at the registration facilities according to the Prime Minister’s Decision No. 16 on the roadmap for applying emission standards of cars participating in traffic and automobiles. Imported used. This standard stipulates that cars with gasoline and diesel engines manufactured after 2008 will apply the level 2 emission standard from January 1, 2020. Thus, raising the automobile emission standard from level 4 (in 2017) to level 5 in January 2022, Vietnam becomes one of the top countries in ASEAN in terms of controlling emissions that have an impact on the environment. In addition, the improvement of automobile emission standards will reduce the cost of disaster recovery due to the greenhouse effect and the cost of medical examination and treatment for the community.
