In response to the National Digital Transformation Day (October 10) and implementing VTV's 2024 Digital Transformation Plan, on October 9, Vietnam Television (VTV) organized several activities, including a technology exhibition themed "Applying New Technology to Drive Digital Transformation in Television," the launch ceremony of the National Online Digital Television Platform VTVGo, and a technology seminar titled "Building Infrastructure and Applying Technology in Digital Transformation at Vietnam Television."
Notably, the technology and technical exhibition was a new feature compared to previous years' events. Held from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on October 9 at the lobby of the Vietnam Television Center building, the exhibition featured six booths from domestic and international solution providers.
In addition to exploring and discovering new technologies, participants were able to experience the latest version of the VTVGo app, which is pre-installed on smart TVs. They also got to use remote controls with an integrated VTVGo button. Visitors to the exhibition also received tech-related gifts from various partners.
The highlight of the event series was the launch ceremony of the National Online Digital Television Platform, VTVGo. During the event, the audience reflected on VTVGo’s 10-year development journey.
