Attending was the Chairman of the City Peoples Committee. Can Tho Truong Canh Tuyen, leaders of departments, branches, experts, scientists, lecturers... The simultaneous establishment of an in-depth research organization on robotics, artificial intelligence and a technology enterprise is identified by the school as a step to connect training and scientific research with product development, technology transfer and the actual needs of society. Bringing robots and AI to real problems in the Mekong Delta Speaking at the launching ceremony, Dr. Nguyen Van Quang, Principal of Southern Can Tho University, said that in the context of strong development of artificial intelligence and digital technology, the university is not only responsible for training human resources but also creating knowledge, developing technology and bringing technology to life. From that orientation, DNC-IRAI was built with the goal of becoming a center for research, training and development of applications in robotics, artificial intelligence and automation, focusing on high-impact problems. Highly applicable, suitable for the needs of the Mekong Delta and the whole country. A notable point is that DNC-IRAIs research direction does not stop at laboratory topics. The Institute determines to research application solutions and gradually autonomously manufacture AI-integrated robots to put into practice in the Mekong Delta. Targeted fields include smart agriculture; Medical support equipment and robots; production and service automation; create digital maps and digital copies; 3D tourism and other technology application needs of the region. This is also the approach that the leaders of Southern Can Tho University set when determining that scientific research must be directly linked to life and market needs. PhD. Nguyen Van Quang emphasized: Research must be linked to practice - technology must create products - products must create value for society. According to the Principal of Nam Can Tho University, the school expects research, development and technology application activities to contribute to promoting science, technology and innovation in the city. Can Tho and Mekong Delta; At the same time, forming highly applicable products and solutions, gradually expanding the domestic scope and targeting the international market. Towards autonomy in manufacturing smart robots One of the notable goals of DNC-IRAI is to move towards technological autonomy. According to the announced orientation, the Institute will develop into a center for training, applied research and technology transfer in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence; Prioritizing niche markets with high applicability. From that research foundation, DNC-IRAI aims to gradually autonomously manufacture AI-integrated robots, creating smart robot products with a localization rate of more than 60% by 2029. The Institute also has the function of researching solutions and technologies related to robots, AI and process automation; proactively develop science and technology products that can be put into practice. In addition to in-depth research activities, the school also aims to create an environment for students to approach Robots, AI and STEM early. DNC-IRAI plans to establish Robocon Club, AI Club, selecting students as the core force, thereby spreading STEM activities. The Institute also plans to organize robot programming and AI programming classes in the summer for high school students; At the same time, promoting cooperation, transfer and application of technology products developed by the Institute into practice. Thus, in addition to the goal of forming technology products, the Institute is also placed in a chain of training-research-experience, creating conditions for students to have deeper access to fast-growing fields such as Robotics and AI. Establishing a business to bring research results to the market Together with DNC-IRAI, South Can Tho University established the South Can Tho University Digital Technology and Innovation Joint Stock Company. If the Institute undertakes research, training and technology development, the new business is oriented to become a bridge to bring research results that can be applied to reality and the market. The company operates according to the model of a joint stock company, with independent accounting, with a charter capital of 10 billion. copper. Areas of operation include digital technology, software, information technology, telecommunications, data processing, research and technology development; in which scientific research and technological development in the field of science, engineering and technology are identified as the main business lines. According to the orientation, this enterprise will become an industrial focal point.system in the ecosystem of Southern Can Tho University, connecting schools, experts, scientists and learners with businesses and markets. The focus is on promoting the process from ideas and research to products and markets, bringing research results, initiatives and potential technology solutions into practice; At the same time, developing technology products and services to serve businesses, organizations and the community. In the first phase, the Compan
