Through this program, the speaker provided guests with more ways to explore the open scientific repository and provided a completely new, professional and class-oriented view of the valuation profession. The speaker also asserted that each business valuation dossier is unique and no two business profiles are the same. Therefore, a price appraiser, like an artist, needs passion to sublimate, in which his work - the appraisal certificate - is tailored for each set of documents.

Summarizing his presentation, Mr. Nguyen Kim Duc emphasized: “Valuation is a science or art [...] is a famous concept of Professor Lim Lan Yuan, President of WAVO; in which, artistry is the professional judgment of the appraiser. Ideally, artistry exists due to the professional nature; However, in reality, the artistry also comes from the absence of theoretical foundations or empirical research to support because practical activities are always diverse. Therefore, the greatest practical significance of these events is to contribute to a partial shift from art to science so that the artistry, over time, will be created in accordance with the specificity of the profession”.
