Vingroup CEO dreams of a ‘silicon valley’ for Vietnam

VOV.VN - Vingroup, the largest private economic conglomerate of Vietnam, is expected to build a global innovations centre in Khanh Hoa to serve as a ‘silicon valley’ in Khanh Hoa province in the next three years.

Vingroup CEO Nguyen Viet Quang revealed the group’s ambitious plan at a national conference on the labour market hosted by Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on August 20.

“In the next three years, Vingroup will open a global innovation centre in Cam Lam district of Khanh Hoa province to bring together the world’s leading experts who own patents and in-depth research,” Quang said at the event as quoted by local media outlets.

“We will offer optimum conditions to turn the centre into a silicon valley of Vietnam,” he went on to say.

According to the CEO, Vingroup currently has 45,000 employees, and the figure is expected to rise to 150,000 in the next three years.

“Vingroup is in dire need of recruiting up to 100,000 employees for development projects in Vietnam, and we will offer best treatment policies to help them work with peace of mind,” he said.  

Nearly 1,000 experts from 20 developed economies around the world are working for Vingroup to help implement production development projects, and especially get involved in human resource training to generate international quality personnel.
