Research Institute of Digital Organization and Economy
Institute for Research on Organization and Digital Economy
The Institute for Research on Organizations and Digital Economy (RIDE), established in 2004, focuses on supporting organizations to thrive in the digital age.
RIDE leverages the extensive experience of its leadership team, who have many years of experience in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the United States and Europe. The main goal of the Institute is to strategically integrate essential digital elements into the formula for success for organizations and the rapidly growing economy of Vietnam.
To achieve this goal, RIDE offers a range of diverse services, including training, consulting, and technical support for various clients, from businesses to government agencies, as well as strategic consulting and feature development for digital service providers.
The mission of RIDE
To advance digital transformation and the adoption of AI to enhance and to innovate the operational effectiveness of enterprises and organizations.
RIDE recognizes that the challenges of digital transformation are not limited to technology itself. Many organizations struggle due to issues such as internal resistance, psychological barriers, information overload, and poor governance. These socio-economic challenges are often overlooked, leading to technology implementations that do not achieve the expected returns. Essentially, we understand that digital transformation includes both non-digital and non-technical factors.
