After a process of researching and analyzing the products, the Preliminary Round Jury worked intensively, offering comments, evaluations, and engaging in intense and lively debates to select the 18 authors and author groups with the most outstanding products for the Final Round.

Despite being affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, the competition still saw significant efforts in organization and judging, and brought together a Preliminary Jury with many leading experts in the IT field, with the Chairman of the Preliminary Jury being Mr. Nguyen Long – Secretary General of the Vietnam Informatics Association.

The products that made it to the final round of the Vietnamese Talent Awards 2020 all embody the “spirit” of the National Digital Transformation program, which has been strongly implemented by the Government since 2020. This was the assessment of a member of the award’s preliminary judging panel.

As one of the 8 successful IT products, 1Office is an all-in-one business management platform software that provides users with an online working environment by digitizing the entire enterprise into unified blocks, from HR, Customers, Work, and Business to Internal Communications. To date, 1Office has been chosen and trusted by over 120,000 users from more than 2,500 Vietnamese businesses.

Speaking at the press conference, Mr. Le Viet Thang, founder of 1Office and a member of one of the author groups that reached the Final Round, expressed his joy at having the opportunity to demonstrate the product’s capabilities and potentially become a winning team at this year’s Vietnamese Talent Awards.

Starting as a competition in the Information Technology field in 2005, the Vietnamese Talent Awards has now become a prestigious award in the fields of Information Technology, Science and Technology, Medicine and Pharmacy, Environment, and Talent Promotion. 

The award has excellently fulfilled its mission to “Honor talent, encourage creativity,” set from its very first days, bringing values of society, by society, and for society. It continues to grow strongly to bring Vietnamese talents to the global stage, keeping pace with the era’s technological development trends, as well as closely following the directives of the Party and State on scientific and technological development.
