Da Nang (VNS/VNA) - FPT Software (F-Soft) Da Nang company's plans are accelerating, aiming to earn 3.6 trillion VND (144 million USD) in software exports in 2025.

The target follows the company introducing the third campus at the FPT Complex and signing a strategic deal with the central city’s information and technology sector, specifically in the areas of semiconductors and AI.

Chairman of F-Soft Da Nang Nguyen Tuan Phuong said the member company would make F-Soft responsible for a 10% share in revenues in 2025 and remain a leading earner for Da Nang's ICT industry.

Phuong said the newly-debuted third campus at FPT Complex, a centralised information technology (CIT) zone in Da Nang, would have space for 10,000 working in IT.

Da Nang and the leading software giant FPT Group also agreed to speed up cooperation in human resources training in semiconductor and AI, providing ‘smart’ solutions in attracting investment in the future.

FPT Group also plans to open an Advancing Packing and Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) Testing service at Da Nang city’s Hi-tech Park and the duty-free zone.

Currently, the FPT Complex employs 8,000 people in the software industry and contributed 69% to the city’s software export turnover.

FPT’s educational arm has space for teaching 18,000 students in IT, while its ‘smart’ education service already provides regular training for 25,000 school-aged pupils.

He said a series of IT infrastructure and accommodation projects in FPT Complex would help FPT Group grow by between 25 to 30%. The chairman added that 80% of the company’s software exports were from the Republic of Korea and Japan.

Looking ahead F-Soft would implement 51 projects involving 10 million customers in 2025, he said.

A report from the city’s information technology and communications department showed that the ICT industry earned 39.8 trillion VND (1.6 billion USD) in revenues, a 9.07% year-on-year increase, of which 165 million USD was from software exports.

The city’s digital economy accounted for 20.6% of the city’s Gross Regional Domestic Product in 2024.

Da Nang has four CIT zones including the Da Nang Software Park, the Da Nang IT Park, the FPT Complex and Software Park 2, creating 53,000 jobs./.
