Da Nang government has approved the detailed 1:500 zoning planning map of the CMC Creative Space in Hoa Xuan Ward, Cam Le District, paving the way for the construction to start at the earliest.

Developed by the telecoms and IT giant CMC Corporation, the 12,000 billion VND, the two-staged project will cover an adjusted area of 172,980m².

Under the already-approved zoning planning map, the CMC Creative Space in Da Nang comprises such functional subdivisions as research and development (R&D), software production and information technology (IT) areas, an internet hub; a data centre, workplaces for staff, cultural, fitness - sports venues, and other high-end auxiliary facilities with sufficient modern amenities.

Under the project, job opportunities will be created for 2,000 and 10,000 employment seekers in the 1^st and 2^nd stages, respectively.

It is known that the inception of the CMC Creative Space in Da Nang aims at developing the city into Viet Nam’s international gateway for data storage and connection, within the framework of CMC Corporation’s landmark strategy of highly supporting the country’s ongoing path of turning itself into a digital hub in the Asia-Pacific region.

The establishment of the creative space is completely consistent with Da Nang's development strategies in a bid to realise its goals of developing itself into a hi-tech and IT hub in Viet Nam.

Da Nang leaders hope that work on this much-awaited project will start on 29 March 2021.
