Investment in high-tech industries is booming.

The period from 2023 to 2025 marks a significant leap forward for Da Nang in attracting investment into industrial parks and high-tech zones. The continuous growth in investment capital demonstrates the increasing attractiveness of the investment environment, while also reflecting the effectiveness of administrative reforms, infrastructure improvements, and the government's decisive efforts in supporting businesses.

Capital inflows show impressive growth.

According to the Da Nang High-Tech Park and Industrial Zones Management Board (DSEZA), in 2023, the city attracted 6.4 trillion VND in investment capital into the Da Nang High-Tech Park and Industrial Zones; this figure is projected to reach 7.9 trillion VND in 2024 (a 23% increase); and is expected to rise to 10 trillion VND in 2025, a 27% increase. Total new investment capital over the three years increased by 56% – an impressive growth rate given the volatile global economic environment.

Mr. Vu Quang Hung, Head of DSEZA, stated: “Growth comes not only from the quantity but also from the quality of projects. Many large corporations consider Da Nang a long-term investment location due to its transparency, stability, and strong commitment from the government. The proportion of high-tech and clean industry projects has increased significantly, aligning with the city's sustainable industrialization orientation.”

The appeal of industrial parks in Da Nang stems from their modern infrastructure, strategic location, convenient transportation connections, and especially the "one-stop shop" model that helps shorten the time required to process applications.

A series of key projects such as the Hoa Ninh Industrial Park and the Da Nang Free Trade Zone (FTZ) have been implemented, creating a foundation for a new growth cycle. At the Da Nang High-Tech Park, both domestic and foreign investors highly appreciate the decisive approach of the management board. By 2025, this area is expected to experience significant activity as many businesses build factories and expand production.

Among these, Danapha's high-tech pharmaceutical manufacturing plant and R&D center project (1,500 billion VND) is considered a highlight. The company has basically completed the infrastructure, is preparing to install equipment and conduct trial operations, and is expected to start operations in 2026.

Mr. Do Minh Hieu, CEO of Danapha, said: “Thanks to the support of departments, agencies and management boards, procedures from investment policy to construction permits have been resolved quickly, clearly and on time. This is a factor that helps Danapha implement the project on schedule.”

Not only domestic businesses, but also foreign investors have noted the difference. A representative from Dentium Group (South Korea) stated that the time to complete procedures in Da Nang was less than 6 months. Thanks to this, Dentium expanded its three factories with a total investment of $257 million; of which factory 1 is already operational, factory 2 is 80% complete, and factory 3 is 20% complete.

Mr. Chang Hyung Jeon, Director of ICT Vina at Dentium Group (South Korea), shared: “From the investment decision to the factory's operation, it only took about 1.5 years. In many countries, this time usually takes 3-4 years. This demonstrates the very substantial support from Da Nang.”

Japanese investors, who are usually cautious in choosing investment locations, also highly appreciate Da Nang. They said they have been particularly interested in the city's investment environment recently and have noted many positive signs.

According to Japanese businesses, Da Nang's attractiveness stems not only from its increasingly完善 industrial park infrastructure and transparent administrative procedures, but also from the quality of its young, disciplined workforce that quickly adapts to new technologies.

Representatives of Japanese investors were impressed with Da Nang's safe, clean, and high-quality living environment. This is a crucial factor in attracting Japanese experts to work there long-term, and also motivates businesses to continue expanding their operations in the future.

Expanding the growth space

Investment inflows into Da Nang have surged from VND 6.4 trillion in 2023 to VND 10 trillion in 2025, a 56% increase in just three years. Not only has the scale increased, but the capital structure has also shifted significantly towards high technology, clean industries, and high value-added projects, laying the foundation for a new phase of the city's development.

With modern infrastructure, streamlined procedures, and a high-quality workforce, Da Nang is creating an attractive and sustainable investment environment. Based on impressive investment results, DSEZA proposes five key solution groups: partnering with businesses, supporting access to capital, digital transformation - simplifying procedures, improving infrastructure, and expanding FTZs (free trade zones).

Accordingly, Da Nang launched the Hoa Ninh Industrial Park (6,203 billion VND), expanded the Hoa Cam Industrial Park to nearly 150 hectares, and simultaneously activated FTZ No. 5 (90 hectares) and assessed the dossiers for FTZ No. 2, 3, and 4.

In addition, the city is promoting the standardization of planning data, developing a set of visual investment promotion documents, reforming procedures, and shortening processing times for applications. With the new industrial parks and the FTZ system becoming operational, the city is expected to usher in a strong growth cycle from 2025 to 2030.

Mr. Vu Quang Hung stated: “Da Nang is always committed to improving the investment environment, ensuring transparency, streamlining procedures, and preparing new land and infrastructure. The Management Board is committed to closely supporting businesses so they can confidently implement their projects.”

According to Ms. Tran Thi Thanh Tam, Director of the Department of Finance, the city always advocates "accompanying businesses from the survey stage to production," ensuring timely resolution of arising difficulties and creating a transparent and favorable investment environment.

Da Nang prioritizes attracting high-tech projects, clean industries, and sectors with high added value in order to build a foundation for sustainable growth.

In addition, the city regularly organizes investment promotion conferences, directly connecting with domestic and foreign businesses and investors, thereby showcasing its potential, listening to their needs, and expanding cooperation opportunities in the new phase.
