Time: from 8:00 on June 14, 2024
Location: Army Hotel, 1A Nguyen Tri Phuong, Quan Thanh, Hoan Kiem, HanoiCurrently, the country has 6 main multimedia press agencies, 127 newspapers, 670 magazines; 72 radio and television agencies. Although different in type, most press agencies are experiencing a decline in revenue, especially television stations and press agencies that are completely financially autonomous.
This difficulty is partly due to the fact that domestic press agencies are facing competition from social platforms for advertising - communication and readers and viewers. Businesses are also cutting costs for advertising - communication, especially in recent years. In addition, the State's resources and mechanisms for ordering press are limited and the situation of copyright infringement has not been thoroughly resolved.
According to Associate Professor, Dr. Bui Chi Trung, Deputy Director of the Institute of Journalism and Communication Training: “The development of the press and media economy does not only need to be viewed from the perspective of a few specific cases, from a single field or separate type, but needs to be viewed on the overall, strategic and comprehensive scale of the national press system, associated with the context of strong digital economic development today. From there, there will be a breakthrough development to well perform the role and function of revolutionary press, of the professional and humane Vietnamese media system”.
