In the 2024 digital transformation assessment report, many press agencies achieved the "excellent" level.
A typical example is Lao Dong Newspaper, which applies artificial intelligence (AI) to the news production process, translates content into multiple languages, and personalizes the reader experience.
These initiatives have helped Lao Dong Newspaper expand its reach and improve the quality of its content.
In addition, units such as VnExpress, Nhan Dan, and Thanh Nien Newspapers have also implemented creative solutions in producing multimedia products such as podcasts, video news, and journalistic masterpieces.
This shows healthy and dynamic competition in the industry, contributing to promoting comprehensive development.
These achievements also reflect the industry's continuous efforts to innovate and adapt to the digital age.
However, digital transformation in journalism is not just about applying technology but a comprehensive revolution, from changing thinking to restructuring and organizational processes.
In 2024, positive changes in digital transformation awareness have helped improve the operational efficiency of newsrooms. Nearly 50% of press units have built annual digital transformation strategies, an encouraging number that continues to increase rapidly compared to the previous year.
At central press agencies, advances in digital transformation have contributed to affirming the practicality and positive impact of digital technology on journalism.
But local newspapers and science journals are still facing challenges in keeping up with this trend, especially in terms of resources and technical infrastructure.
The success of digital transformation in journalism does not only come from a few “excellent” units.The entire journalism industry, with support from the national digital transformation policy and the attention of governing agencies, needs to join hands to create an effective and synchronous digital transformation environment!
