Take advantage of the golden opportunity of data center

The period 2025-2030 is considered the “golden opportunity” of data centers (TTDL), when the demand for artificial intelligence (AI) explodes globally, creating a gap between low supply and a very large market expansion rate. The question is how do we take advantage of this opportunity?

Vietnam’s tourism market is transforming rapidly, from a mere technical infrastructure to a high-tech asset class that attracts international investment. Cost advantages, booming demand from AI and the digital economy , are creating great opportunities for Vietnam to enter the global tourism map, despite facing challenges in power supply capacity and some legal barriers.

According to the results of the Asia- Pacific Investment Intention Survey 2025, published by CBRE Vietnam, tourism has risen to second place in the most interested asset group. Meanwhile, studies show that tourism infrastructure growth rate increases by 19-22% per year. Asia-Pacific alone has become the "hot spot" of the industry, which can account for nearly half of the world's demand.

Vietnam is not out of this trend as the demand for infrastructure for AI, cloud computing and digital services increases unprecedentedly, making it one of the fastest growing digital markets in the region.

In fact, the scale of Vietnam's data center is currently quite small. As of October 2025, the total operating capacity of data centers will only reach 104 MW - 1/10 of Shanghai (1,071 MW) and far less than Singapore (738 MW). The special interest of foreign investors signals a promising future for the growth potential of the data center market.

The picture is gradually changing since Vietnam promulgated the Telecommunications Law 2023, simplifying the process related to data storage and abolishing foreign ownership restrictions on data and cloud service providers… Removing barriers to market entry will help Vietnam open up opportunities to attract more international investors.

The official operation of the National Data Center (August 19, 2025) also plays a strategic role, enhancing connectivity and data sharing between national databases and specialized databases, signaling the formation of new operating and cybersecurity standards for the market, creating advantages for domestic suppliers.

Along with that, the revised Investment Law, digital economic development policies, expansion of international connectivity infrastructure and young workforce - with the goal of 75% of workers being professionally trained by 2030, create a strong enough macro foundation for the IT market to grow in the long term.

Vietnam is still a new market for data centers in the Asia-Pacific region, but has a “big plus” in terms of cost. Vietnam data centers are moving quickly to become an important link in the regional digital infrastructure chain.

According to CBRE, if going in the right direction and making good use of the momentum from the AI ​​era, Vietnam will emerge as a new destination for the world's tourism market in the next decade.
