FPT welcomes delegation from the United States National Defense University, opening opportunities to strengthen U.S.-Vietnam collaboration in the semiconductor value chain in Southeast Asia
On April 11, 2025, FPT had the honor of hosting a delegation from the National Defense University (NDU) of the United States. The delegation included representatives from the U.S. Embassy in Vietnam and 15 master’s degree students from the Eisenhower School. These students are currently serving in various branches of the U.S. Department of Defense, including the Air Force, Army, and Navy.

During the visit, the NDU delegation toured the FPT Tower and the Vietnam Semiconductor Innovation Center (VSIC), one of FPT’s key initiatives in collaboration with the National Innovation Center (NIC). Here, the delegation was introduced to the “FPT Chip Inside” ecosystem, which includes products such as Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMIC), the FPT Access Control System (FAS), along with other applications developed by FPT’s semiconductor engineering team.
FPT representative shares the development roadmap of the semiconductor industry in Vietnam
At the meeting, FPT representatives shared their roadmap for the development of the semiconductor industry in Vietnam, particularly focusing on the field of integrated circuit (IC) design and the training of high-quality human resources for the Information Technology sector in general and the booming semiconductor industry in Vietnam in particular.
The delegation also highlighted one of the top priorities of their research outcomes: the development of the semiconductor value chain in Southeast Asia, with Vietnam playing a crucial role in this vision.
