On May 14, in Cua Lo ward (Nghe An), the Central Committee of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union in coordination with the Nghe An Provincial Youth Union organized a seminar with the theme "OCOP in the digital age: Regional linkage and market expansion for local products".
This is an activity within the 2026 "Youth Startup Innovation and Digital Transformation Day" and the semi-final round of the "2026 Rural Youth Startup Project" Contest in the Central region.
At the seminar, speakers and youth union members focused on discussing many solutions to support rural youth, cooperatives and businesses to access digital distribution channels; proposed measures to simplify and shorten the OCOP product registration process, promote connection and product consumption. The seminar also clarified the role of the Youth Union organization in accompanying and supporting youth entrepreneurship, career establishment and participating in the "One Commune One Product" (OCOP) program.
Many effective models, ways of doing things, and creative ideas of young people in rural economic development, startups and building OCOP products were shared at the event, contributing to spreading the spirit of entrepreneurship and digital transformation in the community.
