The expansion aims to support scientific research, high-tech, and strategic technology development.

Deputy Prime Minister Ho Quoc Dung has signed a decision
approving the expansion of Ho Chi Minh City high-tech park by 194.84 hectares
in Long Phuoc Ward, marking a significant step in the city’s strategy to
strengthen its position as a leading technology and innovation hub.

The expansion aims to support scientific research, high-tech
and strategic technology development, as well as pilot production of advanced
technology products.

The project forms part of the southern city’s broader vision
of building a comprehensive high-tech ecosystem that integrates research,
incubation, education, technology transfer, and commercialization.

A key feature of the expansion plan is its commitment to
achieving carbon neutrality before 2050, in line with Vietnam’s long-term
sustainable development goals.

Under the approved framework, the new area will host
research and development activities in strategic technologies, pilot
manufacturing of products developed within the high-tech park, and controlled
testing of emerging technologies, products, and policy mechanisms. The
expansion will also support technology incubation, workforce training
partnerships, technology transfer, and commercialization initiatives in
accordance with Vietnam’s high-tech development policies.

The project is expected to establish advanced research and
innovation centers in priority sectors including microelectronics, information
technology, automation, biotechnology, and advanced materials. It will also
promote industry clusters and industrial symbiosis, while strengthening
collaboration between businesses, universities, and research institutions.
