[Research Contribution] Do luxury brands in fashion industry have to trade-off for sustainability?
08 May 2026
The luxury factor is often associated with high cost, rarity, and sometimes ostentatious consumption. Meanwhile, sustainability is associated with moderation, responsibility, and consideration of environmental impact. So, can these seemingly opposing concepts coexist in the high-end fashion industry? In the context of consumers becoming increasingly concerned about the environment, luxury brands are beginning to integrate sustainability into their products. However, this raises a big question: does "greening" strip away the essence of luxury, or on the contrary, can it become a new value that elevates the brand?

[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] ESG Reputational Risk and Corporate Dividend Policy: International Evidence
07 May 2026
In a context where ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors are increasingly shaping how the market evaluates corporations, negative information spread through media channels can amplify reputational risk and directly impact financial policies. In response to this reality, a research team from the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) analyzed data from 11,535 firms across 69 countries from 2007 to 2019, revealing that when ESG reputational risk increases, firms tend to raise dividend payouts as a tool to stabilize market confidence. Specifically, a one-standard-deviation increase in ESG reputational risk corresponds to a 2.5% increase in the payout ratio.

[Research Contribution] Information & Communications Technology's influence on CO2 emissions & renewable energy consumption - and what it means for economic growth
06 May 2026
We often think that technology is the driving force behind faster economic growth. But if rapid development comes with pollution and resource depletion, is it really growth? In the context of countries racing in technology while facing increasing environmental pressures, a question begins to emerge: can technology both drive growth and make the economy more sustainable?
