Investment promotion activities implemented by the province are unified and closely coordinated among departments, agencies, and localities, contributing to creating an increasingly transparent and favorable investment environment for businesses and investors. Instead of waiting, the province has proactively built a transparent and modern investment ecosystem. The focus of this approach is the standardization of communication products and databases according to international practices, helping investors easily identify the potential of the locality. In particular, the acceleration of digital transformation and the formation of a one-stop information system have helped investors quickly access preferential mechanisms and policies and lists of projects calling for investment, creating solid confidence for the business community.

The seamless coordination between departments, agencies, and localities under the consistent direction of the Provincial People's Committee has created a unified operating system, ready to support investors from the survey stage to project implementation.

The most significant event was the Gia Lai Province Investment Promotion Conference in 2025. At this event, investors' confidence in the province was concretized through the Provincial People's Committee granting investment policy decisions, investment registration certificates, and signing memoranda of understanding for investment cooperation for 69 projects, with a total registered and committed investment capital of up to VND 119,700 billion, equivalent to more than USD 4.6 billion. Of these, 27 projects received investment policy decisions with a total capital of VND 26,300 billion; and 42 projects signed memoranda of understanding for investment cooperation with a total projected capital of VND 93,400 billion.

Gia Lai's investment attraction results in 2025 far exceeded expectations, welcoming 192 investment projects from domestic and foreign corporations and businesses, surpassing the provincial People's Committee's target by 27 projects – the highest number ever. The total registered investment capital also set a new record, exceeding 159,874 billion VND, including 176 domestic investment projects with a total registered capital of over 124,190 billion VND and 16 FDI projects with a total capital of nearly 35,684 billion VND.

Investment flows into Gia Lai are strategic and diversified. The industrial sector continues to lead in the number of projects with 86 projects and a total investment of over 42,877 billion VND, while the construction and infrastructure sector accounts for the largest share of capital with over 62,542 billion VND from 25 projects. Other sectors include: trade, services and tourism with 25 projects and a total investment of over 12,862 billion VND; agriculture, forestry and fisheries with 50 projects and a total investment of over 6,685 billion VND; and real estate and urban development with 6 projects and a total investment of over 34,918 billion VND.

According to investment location, there are 43 projects implemented in economic zones and industrial parks; 42 projects in industrial clusters; and 107 projects outside of industrial zones and clusters. During the year, the province adjusted 178 projects, with a total additional investment capital of VND 7,546.46 billion.

Along with attracting projects, business registration activities continue to show positive progress. From January 1st to December 10th, 2025, Gia Lai province issued business registration certificates to 2,999 newly established businesses, with a total registered capital of 26,820 billion VND. This reflects the confidence of businesses in the market as well as the support and development assistance from Gia Lai province.

Attracting investment into 5 pillars of development

In 2026, Gia Lai province has identified attracting investment not only in terms of quantity but also in terms of quality. The province's key solution is to focus on five pillars of development: industry, tourism, high-tech agriculture, logistics services, and urban economy linked to the urbanization process.

The province prioritizes projects with modern technology, high knowledge content, environmental friendliness, and efficient resource utilization, ensuring green development. Alongside attracting large corporations, Gia Lai is opening its doors to small and medium-sized enterprises with clean technologies from developed markets such as Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Europe; while simultaneously accelerating the completion of the Nhon Hoi Economic Zone, the Le Thanh International Border Gate Economic Zone, and other industrial parks and clusters.

The province will also develop and finalize the list of projects inviting investment for the period 2025-2030; continue to update the investment promotion database; strengthen communication and promotion; enhance support for investors and improve the efficiency of project management and supervision after licensing.

With a determination to improve the investment environment, support businesses, and adopt increasingly professional approaches, Gia Lai province expects that investment promotion efforts in 2026 will continue to make significant progress, contributing to rapid and sustainable economic growth and making Gia Lai an attractive investment destination.
