Updated: 20:38, 14/11/2026

BAC NINH - Dao Thanh Truong, member of the Bac Ninh Party Committee’s Standing Board and Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee, held a meeting with a delegation from France’s University of Limoges to discuss expanding cooperation in science, technology, engineering and applied research.

The delegation was led by Vincent Jolivet, Associate Professor of Information Technology and President of the University of Limoges.

Vice Chairman of municipal People’s Committee Dao Thanh Truong speaks at the meeting.

The University of Limoges is a multidisciplinary public university in France, combining education, scientific research, technology transfer and cooperation with local authorities and businesses.

With an extensive international partnership network and specialised research institutes, the university has strengths aligned with Bac Ninh’s goals of developing human resources, high-tech industries and sustainable growth.

Welcoming the delegation on November 13, Vice Chairman Truong spoke highly of the university’s interest in Bac Ninh, particularly its desire to learn about the city’s training and scientific research models, technology transfer activities, practical needs and potential cooperation programmes in the coming years.

The University of Limoges delegation meets with Bac Ninh city officials.

He said Bac Ninh held an important position in the capital region, with convenient transport links to Hanoi, Noi Bai International Airport and major economic centres. The city has maintained high economic growth, with industry continuing to serve as its main growth driver.

Alongside industrial development, Bac Ninh is seeking to promote high-tech sectors, including the semiconductor industry, artificial intelligence (AI), digital transformation, logistics, research and development (R&D), and innovation, while gradually improving growth quality and workforce capabilities, he said.

The municipal leader called on both sides to step up discussions on cooperation in education and human resource development in science, technology and engineering, as well as explore joint research, application and technology transfer programmes in selected fields.

He also proposed that the University of Limoges share its experience in building an innovation ecosystem and connecting universities, research institutes, businesses and local authorities, while supporting innovative start-ups.

Vice Chairman of municipal People’s Committee Dao Thanh Truong presents a commemorative gift to the University of Limoges delegation.

He further called for student, postgraduate, doctoral candidate, lecturer and expert exchange programmes between the French university and universities and colleges in Bac Ninh.

On behalf of the delegation, Vincent Jolivet thanked Bac Ninh's leaders for receiving the delegation and facilitating discussions on international cooperation, academic research and sustainable development in the city.

He said the meeting provided an important foundation for Bac Ninh and the University of Limoges to promote cooperation in education and training, scientific research, educational links, innovation, technology transfer and sustainable development.

Jolivet expressed hope that the discussions and cooperation would soon deliver positive results and create new opportunities for closer ties between the city and the university.
