Accordingly, Mr. Thang proposed that the State issue mechanisms and policies to attract high-quality human resources, such as: housing support; income tax incentives; allowing experts to co-own research results, inventions, and patents; own or have shares in enterprises formed from research results...
Mr. Tao Duc Thang said: “ Viettel is rated by a prestigious international magazine as one of the enterprises with the best working environment in Asia, which is an advantage for Viettel to attract talented people to work. In the coming time, Viettel will make a specific contribution by attracting 50 more talented people to work.”
The Chairman of Viettel also proposed that the State apply a mechanism: the State invests, and enterprises operate key laboratories, measurement and testing facilities to evaluate strategic technology products. This is a mechanism similar to the one Viettel is proposing in the Project to build a semiconductor chip factory to report to the Government to develop the semiconductor industrial ecosystem.
According to Mr. Thang, enterprises deploying strategic technology are practical environments for training talented students. Over the past 5 years, Viettel has implemented the Viettel Digital Talent program, selecting about 500 students each year to intern at Viettel, many of whom have won national and international awards.
To closely connect businesses and schools, while expanding knowledge and increasing practicality for students, the Chairman of Viettel hopes to have a mechanism to recognize students' internships at businesses as a credit in the training program.
Master the 5G ecosystem
In addition to the proposals, Viettel's Chairman also said that, as a telecommunications network operator, Viettel identifies "Next-generation mobile network technology (5G/6G)" as one of the strategic technologies prioritized for investment.
This is also one of three strategic technologies being proposed by the Ministry of Science and Technology for early implementation to achieve practical results, commercialize and make important contributions to the development of national digital infrastructure.
Based on experience in mastering 4G technology, Viettel has now completely mastered the product ecosystem in all 5G network layers, including: gNodeB base transceiver stations according to ORAN standards; IP transmission equipment; Switchboard systems and OCS 4.0 real-time billing systems.

These products are developed in an open orientation (OpenRAN, Open Network API, ONAP...), soft (SDN), virtualization (NFV) on Cloud Native architecture, while enhancing the application of AI/ML technologies in data analysis and processing.
Products developed by Viettel have been deployed on a large scale on Viettel's network in Vietnam and investment markets, including systems on the network using 100% of products developed by Viettel such as the vOCS real-time billing system. Viettel's 5G telecommunications equipment has also been initially exported to markets such as India and the UAE.
In addition, Viettel's mastery of 5G network equipment has contributed to serving national defense tasks, demonstrated by the Ministry of National Defense assigning Viettel to deploy a 5G network exclusively for the military sector.
Viettel aims to commercialize 5G-Advanced devices by 2027, deploying them in an open, virtualized model with many superior features compared to current 5G, such as: increasing uplink coverage from about 30-50% (compared to downlink) to 70-100% of downlink coverage; reducing latency from ~10 ms to ~1 ms; increasing positioning accuracy from a meter error to a centimeter error; reducing energy consumption by 10-30%...
In 2028 - 2030, Viettel's goal is to produce and test 6G equipment on real networks.
