Ericsson opens new office in Hanoi

According to Ms. Rita Mokbel, President of Ericsson Vietnam: “The opening of the new office in Hanoi affirms Ericsson's long-term commitment to Vietnam. Together with our partners, we have contributed to laying the foundation for the 2G network, gradually developing to 3G and 4G. Today, we are proud to accompany Viettel, VNPT and MobiFone in realizing the 5G network nationwide. As Vietnam is rapidly moving towards the vision of becoming a high-income digital economy, we wish to continue to play the role of a trusted partner, accompanying the country on the journey of digital transformation and sustainable development."

Ericsson's new office in Hanoi is the first office in Ericsson Vietnam to be equipped with EVCN (Enterprise Virtual Cellular Network) - a solution developed by Ericsson, allowing businesses to manage and control 5G connections for mobile devices, especially 5G-enabled laptops or IT applications in the office, via 5G network instead of Wi-Fi.

Vietnam has set an ambitious target: the digital economy will contribute up to 30% of GDP by 2030, in which 5G is identified as a key national infrastructure. With the opening of a new office in Hanoi, Ericsson hopes to strengthen cooperation with the Government, network operators, businesses and education and training institutions to promote digital transformation in priority areas such as manufacturing, healthcare and smart cities.

The Government’s focus on research and development (R&D), human resource development and legal reform has facilitated Ericsson to expand its presence in Vietnam, strengthen its collaboration with local suppliers, contribute to regional innovation hubs, and strengthen its role as a trusted partner in Vietnam’s digital journey.

At the opening ceremony, Ericsson introduced a series of advanced technologies, demonstrating the potential of 5G and modern connectivity solutions:

Holographic Communication - Experience real-time 3D communication that redefines the way people connect with each other, overcoming all distance limitations.

XR Smart Glasses – Smart glasses with integrated AI, support translation, real-time navigation, and are also real-time work support tools, helping to improve performance and daily experiences.

Superior Uplink Carrier Aggregation - Demonstrates how 5G data transmission performance improves, enabling seamless live streaming, cloud gaming, and professional broadcasting.

5G Robotics - Introducing a dog-shaped robot with integrated AI and 5G connectivity, applications in industrial safety, equipment inspection and emergency response.

These demos demonstrate Ericsson's vision of realizing limitless connectivity, while creating practical applications that deliver real value to consumers, businesses and society as a whole.

The new office in Hanoi is also a testament to Ericsson’s commitment to contributing to the development of the innovation ecosystem in Vietnam. Through initiatives such as the Ericsson Educate program in collaboration with the Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology (PTIT), the AI Lab in collaboration with RMIT and the Memorandum of Understanding with the University of Transport, Ericsson continues to invest in human resource development, research and co-creation with local training institutions.
