The first phase of the FPT Complex project, which is located in the FPT Technological Urban Area in Ngu Hanh Son District’s Hoa Hai Ward, was officially put into use last Friday.

In the first phase, the complex will provide working space for 3,200 IT engineers.  Construction of the second phase of the project will begin later this year for completion in 2020.

Covering an area of 5.9ha, the 6-storey FPT complex has a total floor area of 30,950m² and will eventually accommodate a total of 10,000 people when the second phase is finished.

Addressing the opening ceremony, the Municipal People’s Committee Chairman Huynh Duc Tho praised FPT Software Da Nang and Ngu Hanh Son District’s authorities for their great efforts in putting the first phase of the FPT Complex project into use. 

The city leader remarked, “The project will provide many jobs for local residents, promote the district’s socio-economic development, and create a driving force for boosting the city's economy towards services and hi-tech. The city authorities will create even more favourable conditions for the company to successfully complete its soon-to-be-implemented second phase”.

Da Nang is one of Viet Nam’s third largest IT and outsourcing service providers in addition to Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City.  FPT Software Da Nang, therefore, is focusing on developing the company’s own technologies in order to maintain its growth and affirm its position as the largest IT business in the central region.

Importance is also being attached to promoting the company’s globalisation process, rapidly adapting into the world’s latest technologies, as well as seizing the opportunity to compete on equal terms with large foreign corporations.

In addition, attention is being paid to making Da Nang one of the country’s attractive software outsourcing destinations, and a global IT outsourcing service provider, in order to attract even more foreign customers, especially those from Japan.
