FPT Da Nang was established on 13/8/2004. Within their 16 years of operation, FPT Da Nang had managed to grow almost limitlessly, and became one of the largest IT companies in not just the local area, but the entirety of Central Vietnam as a whole. At the time of writing, FPT had invested more than VND 2.500 billion in Da Nang in order to build a technological platform that facilitates the implementation of a smart urban area planning, training and software centers, as well as other miscellaneous social infrastructures. These investments by FPT had generated over VND 1.264 billion for the city’s budget, as well as creating over 4.000 job opportunities.

FPT had also played a large part in the local social activities, aiding the city of Da Nang with nearly VND 3 billion in stimulus during the two outbreaks of Covid-19 (medical equipment, computers, internet, safety equipment for medical staff).

In addition to their major strides in software exports, FPT Da Nang had also played a key role in turning Da Nang into a smart city with their implementations of the Digital Government solutions, smart medicals, smart traffic, etc… along with major breakthroughs in providing a great number of citizens with access to high-speed internet. The urban and operational infrastructure development plans of FPT at FPT City specifically, as well as Da Nang city itself in general, all adhered strongly to the environmental impact guidelines set by the People’s Committee, in order to shape it up as one of the cities with the best living conditions in the nation.
