The Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee has approved the Innovation Partnership and Technology Transfer Portal (Techport) project.
The project aims to develop a hybrid model, combining physical and online platforms, to serve as a key intermediary connecting technology supply and demand, while promoting commerce and innovation.
Accordingly, the Techport will operate as a dual-platform system consisting of a physical exchange and a digital platform.
Furthermore, the Techport will provide comprehensive support services for technology and intellectual property (IP) transactions. These services include processing requirements, buy-sell offerings, consulting, brokerage, appraisal, valuation, negotiation, contract signing, and post-transfer monitoring.
A core objective of the project is to strengthen the links between research institutes, universities, and science and technology organizations with businesses and investors. It also aims to help enterprises access appropriate technological solutions, reduce research and development (R&D) costs, and enhance productivity and competitiveness. The commercialization of research results will be facilitated through the standardization of technology profiles, Technology Readiness Level (TRL) assessments, IP consulting, and independent valuation.
By 2030, the Techport aims to connect technology supply and demand for at least 1,500 businesses and individuals annually. It also targets the signing of at least 50 technology transfer or equipment purchase contracts per year and aims to ensure that over 70% of listed technologies have clear IP documentation and independent valuations.
The Techport's headquarters is located at 79 Truong Dinh Street, Ben Thanh Ward.
