Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Bui Hoang Phuong has proposed that Intel enhance its investment in semiconductor packaging and testing activities, as well as research and development of semiconductor microchip products in Vietnam, while visiting the Intel Products Vietnam plant in Ho Chi Minh City recently.
He also suggested Intel to develop an ecosystem of Intel in Vietnam with the aim of supporting startups, and connecting with microchip research and development centers) .
Vietnam aims to develop the semiconductor industry within the ecosystem of developed countries, including the United States and especially Intel, in a direction that combines and complements each other, leveraging existing potential and Vietnam's geopolitical position.
At the same time, he encouraged Intel to expand its R&D center or collaborate with Vietnamese partners to invest in laboratories, simulations, and testing in the semiconductor field, focusing on developing specialized chips to serve the digital transformation sectors and expanding manufacturing activities and ATP (assembly, testing, and packaging) operations in Vietnam.
He also suggested that Intel participate in training programs for design engineers and microchip development; while also collaborating with universities and research institutes to train high-quality human resources in the semiconductor field.
Mr. Kenneth Tse, Intel Vietnam General Director, said Intel will accompany and deeply participate in the implementation of initiatives and tasks of the Vietnam Semiconductor Industry Development Strategy; share experiences in developing ecosystems and training high-quality human resources; and develop specialized chips for application in industries and fields of digital transformation.
