Entrepreneurs’ role in the great national unity

Vietnamese entrepreneurs are now more than just economic actors. They are

The Vietnam Fatherland Front bloc – a symbol of national unity, the aspirations, and the strength of all strata of the people – marched at the 80th anniversary of the successful August Revolution and National Day on September 2nd.

On the global scene, each entrepreneur represents Vietnam's brilliance, resilience, and reputation. As a result, the entrepreneurial workforce's maturity becomes a crucial measure of the competitiveness of the country.

Strike force

In a socialist-oriented market economy, entrepreneurs perform their civic and social obligations in addition to pursuing profit. This is especially crucial when the economy moves into an era of intense competition that demands innovation, productivity, technology, and commercial ethics. Because they produce income, contribute to the state budget, open up new markets, create jobs, develop human resources, support digital transformation, and play a crucial role in national development.

The flexibility of Vietnamese enterprises is becoming more and more apparent in a world with erratic swings, disjointed supply chains, and growing protectionism. They aggressively reorganized production, made investments in automation, green technology, and smart governance, steadfastly adhered to the "quality and reputation as the foundation," and used trade agreements to open up new markets.

An important bridge in integration

Many enterprises have not only persisted with traditional export activities, but they have also made aggressive investments abroad, helping to establish Vietnam as a bright point in the global production network. Some domestic technology companies have set up research centers in developed markets, contributing to the global innovation chain. These are strategically important milestones that confirm entrepreneurs' involvement in increasing growth space while also presenting Vietnamese intellectuals to the globe.

Furthermore, the Vietnamese business community abroad, comprising more than 5 million individuals across 130 countries and territories, is increasingly contributing positively to Vietnam through technology transfer, policy consulting support, market connections, investment in Vietnam, and promotion of Vietnamese culture and goods. A particularly significant "soft power," bolstering the strength of national unity in the international arena, is created by the mutual support of domestic and foreign Vietnamese enterprises.

The pillar of great unity

More significantly, great unity is founded on enduring moral standards and shared ideals rather than just numbers. Strong corporate cultures and standards of business ethics must be established by business leaders. Transparency, integrity, and community duty are under growing pressure due to the fast growth of the digital economy, advanced technology, and international commerce.

ESG has piqued the interest of several Vietnamese companies. By balancing corporate objectives with social advantages, they have had a beneficial effect. They have contributed to community funds, supported social security, and made investments in healthcare, education, and green transformation.

Additionally, business ethics are essential for entrepreneurs to become a force that works together with the country to combat corruption, negativity, and waste as well as to establish a transparent and healthy corporate environment.

Intellectual resources in policymaking and national innovation

The role of entrepreneurs in policymaking has grown more evident in the age of innovative leadership methods, growth model innovation, and the establishment of a socialist rule-of-law state. Startup clubs, business associations, and other groups have grown in importance as a source of policy input, assisting the government in understanding market demands and listening to real-world circumstances.

Business cooperation has helped to promote infrastructure development, investor attractiveness, and an innovation environment at the local level. Through contemporary industrialization, marine economic policies, and industry development initiatives, entrepreneurs help advance the nation's long-term goal at the national level. This is the fusion of national management and entrepreneurial knowledge, which is crucial to the next era's enormous unity.

Social responsibility of entrepreneurs

A contributing factor to the favorable perception of Vietnamese entrepreneurs is their commitment to social responsibility. Through charitable work and community efforts, entrepreneurs are fostering the power of great unity in a variety of domains, including creating great unity residences, assisting hard-to-reach places, supporting farmers, conserving culture, and advancing education.

The sense of social responsibility stems from both civic consciousness and compassion: corporate interests are inextricably tied to national interests, and firms can only grow sustainably when the nation does as well. Entrepreneurs have proactively integrated community benefits into their company's business strategy in a number of different business models. The attitude of supporting the nation is seen in renewable energy initiatives, the development of green environments, the assistance of young companies, and the digital transformation of agriculture.

Consolidating the great national unity

Social trust is now essential to preserving social stability and consensus in the context of multifaceted information and the quick growth of social media. Because of their power and influence, entrepreneurs are crucial in fostering such trust. Every excellent product, every open business practice, and every wise choice promotes community trust.

In addition to resolutions and legal documents, great national unity is demonstrated in day-to-day interactions, such as mutual trust, support for one another, and cooperative problem-solving. Workers, the government, the market, and the global community are all connected by entrepreneurs. They help to increase the vitality, coherence, and substance of the great national unity.

Vietnamese entrepreneurs’ aspirations in the new era

Vietnamese entrepreneurs are an essential component of the great national unity and a particularly valuable resource for constructing its future. They contribute to international integration, generate income, and carry social responsibility. The strength of national unity throughout the remodeling phase is gauged by the growth of the entrepreneurial team.

Unprecedented opportunities are offered by the new era, but entrepreneurs must also continuously innovate, develop corporate culture, enhance business ethics, and foster a desire to contribute. Vietnam will grow sustainably if entrepreneurs follow the correct path; the country's great national unity will grow stronger if entrepreneurs accompany the nation; and Vietnam will have sufficient strength to rise powerfully in the twenty-first century if great national unity is encouraged.
