According to the People's Committee of Da Nang City, Da Nang City has planned land locations right in the city center to welcome strategic investors.

In the immediate future, a 22-storey building at Software Park No. 2 with a construction floor area of ​​over 27,000 m² is ready to welcome investors and units.

In the long term, Da Nang will form a project for a Da Nang Bay urban area of ​​nearly 1,500 hectares, of which more than 280 hectares are expected to be allocated to develop and provide commercial financial and digital financial services.

These two centers will have 5G coverage, ready for 6G network according to actual needs.

Da Nang is also devoting huge resources to developing large projects on Data centers, telecommunications infrastructure, terrestrial satellite infrastructure, semiconductor and artificial intelligence projects with the participation of many large corporations in the world.

"Up to now, in addition to the 6 memorandums of understanding signed before the issuance of Resolution No. 222 of the National Assembly, Da Nang has also cooperated with 16 international strategic partners including global financial institutions, banks, technology companies, investment funds... to invest in the financial center" - the leader of the Da Nang People's Committee informed.

Who are the key personnel of Danang International Financial Center?

At meetings on the progress of the international financial center, the leader of the People's Committee of Da Nang City said that Da Nang is sending large partners in the world to recruit talented people to work.

"We have worked with the Association of Vietnamese Intellectuals in the UK and Ireland, and the Association of Young Vietnamese Entrepreneurs in Europe to propose connecting and inviting Vietnamese intellectuals to work and take on management and executive positions in financial centers.

The city also contacted and negotiated to attract foreign experts with capacity and experience to take on the positions of operations director at the executive agency and director of the dispute resolution agency," said the leader of Da Nang city.
