[Research Contribution] Examining the Influence of Foreign Direct Investment, Industrialization, and Economic Variables on CO2 Emissions in OECD Nations: Insights and Implications for Vietnam

In the process of integration, economic growth and industrialization are often assumed to come at the expense of environmental quality. However, does the prosperity of a nation necessarily come with an increase in CO2 emissions, or will the economic potential achieved become the "key" to reversing the situation?

[Research Contribution] From Connectivity Bottlenecks to a Multi-Experience Connected City: Repositioning Dong Nai’s Brand in the Southern Key Economic Region
07 May 2026
In the context of increasingly intense inter-urban competition, Dong Nai – a strategic gateway to the Southern Key Economic Region – is striving to reposition its urban brand through an integrated governance approach. Possessing the Long Thanh International Airport, an inter-regional transport infrastructure system, industrial parks, and abundant ecological resources, Dong Nai nevertheless faces a challenge: its disparate advantages have yet to be connected into a cohesive urban identity that can attract residents and transform transit passengers into diverse experiences. Research conducted by a group of authors from the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) applies the Integrated Implementation City Branding Framework (IICBF) to analyze and propose a multi-experience urban development strategy, transforming Dong Nai from a transit point into an economically, touristically, and culturally attractive destination in the Southern region.

[Research Contribution] Green Cryptocurrencies and Geopolitical Risk: A Safe Haven in the Digital Age
05 May 2026
In the context of rising geopolitical risk, a research team from the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) analysed the relationship between global tensions and cryptocurrency market volatility. The study used data from 10 cryptocurrencies over the 2014–2023 period, combined with a sophisticated econometric model. The results show a negative correlation between geopolitical risk and the level of cryptocurrency volatility.

In the context of increasing competition among aviation hubs, optimizing value from passenger flows has become a strategic imperative, extending beyond pure aviation operations. Modern airports are no longer mere transit points but are gradually becoming integrated economic centers where passengers are simultaneously consumers and tourists.

[Research Contribution] Dong Nai Tourism: Untapped Potential? Smart Infrastructure for Sustainable Development
23 Apr 2026
After merging with Binh Phuoc, the new Dong Nai possesses one of the most diverse tourism resource systems in Southeast Vietnam. However, a quantitative study using the Urban Network Analysis (UNA) method by authors from the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) and their collaborators shows that tourism development is being “pulled off balance” by infrastructure disparities, with resource-rich areas in the north still remaining outside the main tourism flow. The issue is no longer about potential, but about connectivity – the ability to turn potential into sustainable economic value.
