Da Nang Hi-tech Zone.

Central Da Nang City attracted more than VND6.18 trillion ($236 million) in investment in January, a 2.6-fold increase compared to the same period last year, according to local authorities.

During the month, the city licensed 11 new projects with total registered capital of VND2.703 trillion ($102 million).

Foreign direct investment (FDI) showed strong momentum, contributing $28.95 million in the first month of the year, up 6.4 times year-on-year. This included 10 newly licensed FDI projects with combined capital of $0.51 million, as well as eight existing FDI projects, with an additional investment capital  of $23.75 million.

In the domestic sector, authorities approved capital increases for three projects, with total additional investment of VND3.479 trillion ($132.8 million).

Although the number of projects adjusting their capital declined compared to the same period in 2025, the scale of additional investment rose 38%, reflecting a trend toward expanding the scale and strengthening resources for ongoing projects. The figures signal continued investor confidence and a favourable investment climate in the city.
