The Vietnam Technology and Competitiveness Survey (TCS) is a part of the GSO Vietnam Enterprise Survey (VES) that focuses on enterprise innovation and technology.  The questions about innovation and technology are administered to a subset of firms surveyed in VES. While VES provides general information about firm characteristics, financial accounts, production and output, the TCS collects firm-level data on topics ranging from corporate social responsibility to technology, investment and innovation.
