The Prime Minister said that Vietnam has set the goal of rapid and sustainable development; developing a green economy , digital economy, circular economy, creative economy, etc., based on the foundation of science and technology - innovation - digital transformation, aiming for autonomy and competitiveness in technology, especially strategic technology, including the semiconductor industry. |
Semiconductor Manufacturing International (SEMI) was founded in 1970, representing more than 1.5 million businesses and professionals with 3,000 member companies and 8 affiliated organizations in North America, Europe, China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan (China), and Southeast Asia.
SEMI is the leading global organization connecting the semiconductor industry community, promoting innovation, standardization and workforce development.
SEMI Expo Vietnam 2025 (November 7-8, 2025 at the National Exhibition Center), organized by SEMI, with the participation of 5,000 delegates, 300 international enterprises and 200 booths from leading technology corporations in the semiconductor field and many diverse and rich activities.
The exhibition is an important event, a prestigious forum to connect leading technology corporations, management agencies, research institutes and Vietnamese enterprises with international partners; thereby opening up many new cooperation opportunities, contributing to the development of the semiconductor industry in Vietnam and the region.
Welcoming SEMI delegates to visit Vietnam, sharing about the process of fighting for national independence and building the country, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that Vietnam has set two 100-year goals: by 2030, it will become a developing country with modern industry and high average income, and by 2045, it will become a developed country with high income.
To achieve that goal, Vietnam must develop rapidly and sustainably; transform the growth and development model, develop a green economy, digital economy, circular economy, knowledge economy, sharing economy, based on science, technology, innovation, digital transformation, including developing the semiconductor industry.
In 2025, Vietnam strives to achieve a growth target of 8% or more and double-digit growth in the following years.
Along with internal resources, Vietnam needs help from international friends in finance, human resource training, science and technology transfer and management experience... including cooperation in developing the semiconductor industry.
Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Vietnam Kees van Baar, President of the Southeast Asia Semiconductor Association Linda Tan and representatives of international semiconductor enterprises expressed their impression of Vietnam's socio-economic development achievements in recent times, especially the development strategy based on science and technology, especially the development of the semiconductor industry, in line with the world's trends and the Global Semiconductor Association; highly appreciated and placed their trust in Vietnam's semiconductor industry development policies.
Delegates pointed out the challenges that Vietnam needs to overcome to achieve its set goals, moving from strategy to implementation, from planning to action, turning aspirations into concrete achievements in developing the semiconductor industry, such as: Continuing to perfect institutions; reforming administrative procedures, implementing the "one-stop" mechanism, using English; creating conditions for small and medium-sized enterprises to participate; building necessary infrastructure such as clean energy, information technology; synchronously developing fields in the semiconductor chain, such as research, testing, production, packaging, artificial intelligence...
Expressing the desire to continue investing in Vietnam, delegates proposed that Vietnam should choose priorities; establish the Vietnam Semiconductor Association to act as a bridge between the Government, enterprises, research facilities, and scientific establishments in building institutions, research and development, human resource development, promoting supply chains, attracting investment... developing the semiconductor ecosystem in Vietnam and connecting globally, making Vietnam a semiconductor center of the region and the world...
