A prestigious event for the control and automation community, VCCA-2026, was officially held under the main theme "Intelligent Automation - Strategic Technology of the Digital Era." This forum is designed as a crucial meeting point for academics, industry players, and policy makers to discuss future technology roadmaps, ranging from robotics to green transformation.
During the international scientific conference series, experts highlighted current trends in "robot self-intelligence." This approach is no longer limited to algorithms alone, but integrates the synergy between sensors, controllers, robot physical structures, and operational environmental dynamics. The research focus has also expanded to cover practical applications in crucial sectors such as biomedicine, public health, and agricultural modernization.
The business sector received special attention through a forum featuring dozens of presentations from global experts. Discussions focused on strengthening the local robotics and drone ecosystem, renewable energy transition, and human resource development in the Central and Central Highlands regions. This initiative is expected to trigger more intensive technology transfer and strengthen the position of local businesses in global supply chains.
Complementing the academic and business aspects, the AT Expo will feature dozens of exhibition booths showcasing cutting-edge technological solutions resulting from collaborations between research institutions and industry players. The exhibition also serves as a space for regional products to gain wider recognition in national and international markets.
As a forum held biennially since 2011, VCCA-2026 is committed to continuing to bridge the gap between laboratory research and mass production needs. The organizing committee emphasized that it will maintain post-event partnerships to ensure that technological innovations originating from this forum make a tangible contribution to socio-economic development across Vietnam.
