Quang Tri attracts high-tech investment from Australia

HunterNet (Australia) aims to foster deep cooperation with Quang Tri Province, central Vietnam, in key sectors where the association holds strengths, particularly in high technology and technical infrastructure.

This statement was made by Mr. Tim Owen, Chairman of HunterNet, during a working session with the People’s Committee of Quang Tri Province on April 6.

According to Mr. Owen, HunterNet is a prestigious industrial cooperative organization in Australia, comprising over 180 member companies operating in manufacturing, engineering, and technology.

Following extensive research and surveys, HunterNet recognizes Quang Tri as a locality with significant potential and competitive advantages for attracting investment.

The association proposed plans to conduct field surveys in the clean energy sector and study potential collaboration in seaport development to enhance the province's logistics gateway capacity. Furthermore, HunterNet expressed a particular interest in investing in high-value-added industries, such as semiconductor material production and the manufacturing and maintenance of aircraft components.

As these sectors require advanced technological foundations, they necessitate close coordination between the local government and businesses from the pre-feasibility stage to ensure viability and efficiency during implementation.

During the meeting, Vice Chairman of the Quang Tri People’s Committee, Mr. Le Duc Tien, emphasized that the sectors of interest to HunterNet—including clean energy, seaport development, semiconductor technology, and aviation - align perfectly with the province's long-term development strategy.

According to the official, Quang Tri aims to become a regional energy hub in Central Vietnam while simultaneously developing a robust maritime economy integrated with a modern logistics system.

In particular, high-tech industries such as semiconductor manufacturing and aviation technology are identified as vital sectors to drive scientific and technological breakthroughs, enhancing the value-added potential and economic competitiveness of the province.
