The VNExpress newspaper talks about us and what unites us!

The VNExpress media outlet, one of the most‑read newspapers in Vietnam, revisits the speech of our President Alexandre Zapolsky at the Vietnam–European Digital Cooperation Forum 2025, organized as part of Vietnam International Digital Week.

An event that brought together digital decision‑makers from both continents to discuss AI governance, technological cooperation, and shared innovation.

As Alexandre Zapolsky reminded us - and we will repeat:
“It’s never too late to get into AI.
Newcomers can make breakthroughs by learning from those who came before them, applying the latest technologies, and avoiding old habits.”

But he also highlighted an obvious truth that we have always shared:
“Vietnam boasts an exceptional wealth, its young, brilliant, and passionate engineers.”. Together, we have the power to write a new chapter of global digital history.

For LINAGORA, this vision has been a reality for more than ten years. Our Vietnamese team, the pillar of our software and AI activities, embodies this alliance of technological excellence and humanistic values.

We firmly believe that digital sovereignty is built collectively: by sharing knowledge, opening source code, training talent, and jointly creating digital commons that serve everyone.

That VNExpress relays this message is recognition. More importantly, it proves that Franco‑Vietnamese cooperation can inspire a new path:
the path of an ethical, open, and universal Artificial Intelligence, founded on trust and mutual respect.

We also salute the other personalities mentioned in the article, Mr. Gonzalo Serrano de la Rosa, Head of Cooperation, European Union Delegation to Vietnam, and Mr. Bùi Thế Duy, Vice‑Minister of Science and Technology of Vietnam.
