The most unmistakable evidence lies in the shifting demands from international partners and clients. Major banks have already established frameworks for green loans, and soon, sustainable-linked loans offering preferential interest rates will benefit businesses that actively commit to specific ESG goals. Similarly, several major manufacturers in Vietnam face stringent emission reduction standards from EU clients\u2014failure to comply could result in losing contracts to more competitive counterparts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.fpt-is.com\/en\/sites\/3\/ESG-FPT-IS-2-1747886260.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21520\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.fpt-is.com\/en\/sites\/3\/ESG-FPT-IS-2-1747886260.webp\" alt=\"Esg Fpt Is 2 1747886260\" width=\"1508\" height=\"840\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.fpt-is.com\/en\/sites\/3\/ESG-FPT-IS-2-1747886260.webp 1508w, https:\/\/cdn.fpt-is.com\/en\/sites\/3\/ESG-FPT-IS-2-1747886260-700x390.webp 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1508px) 100vw, 1508px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Mr. Pham Tuan \u2013 Product Director and Co-founder of the VertZ\u00e9ro solution at FPT Corporation \u2013 shares insights at the event.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">FPT representative affirms: ESG is not just a passing \u201ctrend\u201d, but a critical survival factor for Vietnamese enterprises. FPT has rolled out a \u201clead-first\u201d strategy to proactively adapt and lead, demonstrated through its early actions such as committing to Net Zero by 2040 and publishing verified greenhouse gas emissions aligned with ISO14064-1 standards. The company also collaborates with reputable international organizations on ESG projects. These real-world experiences help FPT build a solid internal foundation and enable the group to share knowledge and support the broader business community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">FPT&#8217;s long-term vision identifies \u201cGreen\u201d as one of its five strategic development pillars, alongside semiconductor, AI, Automotive Technology, and Digital Transformation. The company actively applies artificial intelligence to tackle environmental issues, optimize operations, and reduce carbon impacts. Notably, FPT partners with leading organizations such as ACCA, UNDP, UNESCO, and UNICEF to co-design programs that share its expertise and contribute to solving the talent shortage in the green transition sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">FPT\u2019s ambition goes beyond internal transformation, aiming to scale its \u201cgreen formula\u201d globally. As an early mover, the company developed the VertZ\u00e9ro platform to automate carbon tracking and reporting, adhering to global standards like IPCC, GHG Protocol, and ISO14064-1. With a database of over 90,000 emissions indicators, the platform supports businesses in 190 countries and helps optimize up to 80% of the reporting process. Currently, VertZ\u00e9ro is deployed across FPT and its banking partners, solidifying their joint commitment to green transformation and sustainable growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Emphasizing the importance of partnerships, Mr. Pham Tuan shared that FPT is implementing various initiatives to support the business community practicing ESG. These include offering free tools and software to help SMEs measure emissions, and partnering with banks like BIDV to promote green finance by providing carbon accounting and emissions management software to BIDV\u2019s corporate clients free of charge (for a limited period), with preferential pricing of up to 25% thereafter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">Looking ahead, FPT continues to enhance its technological capabilities and expand its partner network to accompany Vietnam\u2019s green and digital transformation journey. Mr. Tuan affirmed that these efforts align with national development goals outlined in Resolution No. 57-NQ\/TW, emphasizing collaboration with domestic and international organizations and enterprises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">The 2025 Vietnam ESG Investor Conference was held under the theme \u201cSustainability and Growth in an Uncertain World,\u201d bringing together investors, business leaders from Vietnam and abroad, government representatives, startups, international organizations, experts, and media.
