In 2022, Viettels three key products - 5G gNodeB broadcast station, vOCS 4.0 billing system and 5G Core network infrastructure - were recognized by Gartner Peer Insights, an evaluation platform from real users. After 3 years, Viettel has been recognized at the highest level with the Magic Quadrant report. The evaluation from Gartner not only proves the quality of Viettels products, but also demonstrates the research and development (R&D) capacity and strategic thinking of a Vietnamese enterprise that has reached international standards. Viettel, from a network operator to a manufacturer and technology provider that can compete with global corporations. Viettel High Tech was recognized by Gartner in the Magic Quadrant for CSP 5G RAN Infrastructure Solutions 2025 report, announced at the Open RAN Connect 2025 international event, organized by Viettel in Hanoi - Photo: VGP/MT In 2021, Minister of Information and Communications Nguyen Manh Hung emphasized the role of 5G in the Vietnamese economy: For the first time, communications infrastructure has become infrastructure of the economy. And it fundamentally changes our lives. This is the mission of 5G, and that mission rests on the shoulders of Vietnams ICT industry. Now, Viettel can be considered to have demonstrated a pioneering role in that journey by both mastering the new generation telecommunications infrastructure with the widespread deployment of the Make In Vietnam 5G system, and making Vietnam one of 5 countries in the world that owns a complete telecommunications network. On this foundation, Viettel has developed an ecosystem with more than 100 services and application solutions in the fields of manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, education, energy and smart cities, bringing the power of 5G to every area of life, contributing to promoting national digital transformation. Technology vision and execution ability - the secret to being recognized by GartnerGartner not only evaluates good products, but also cares about the overall capabilities of the business, especially two factors: technology vision turmeric and execution ability. Viettel is recognized precisely for converging both. Firstly, Viettel has a clear vision about technology. From early on, this corporation determined that technology is not just a business tool, but the foundation of national independence and autonomy. Instead of following trends, Viettel chooses to develop and master core technology fields for the future: AI, cloud computing, chipsets, network security and 5G according to an open standard platform (Open RAN). The goal is not only to provide services, but to create digital infrastructure for the country and region. Second, Viettel has strong execution capacity. In 2025, Viettel will deploy 2,500 5G Open RAN 32T32R stations nationwide, using Qualcomm chipsets to save up to 24% energy compared to traditional equipment. Thanks to the open architecture of Open RAN, Viettel shortened the product development time by half, to only 12 months instead of 24 months according to the usual process. In particular, thanks to pioneering the application of Qualcomms ASIC chipsets in 5G gNodeB products, this business is the partner with the earliest access, fastest design completion and earliest deployment among businesses cooperating with Qualcomm. Vietnamese engineers are highly appreciated for solving extremely difficult problems to meet market needs - Photo: VGP/MT Currently, Viettel is also the unit that deploys the most 5G Open RAN stations using this ASIC chipset, thereby affirming its ability to master technology and position on Gartners global 5G research map. Currently, Viettels products not only solve technology problems but also bring specific benefits to the community: from helping business businesses increase productivity, to support cities in digital transformation more effectively. This is also the reason why Gartner evaluates Viettel as not just a technology provider, but a true digital ecosystem creator. An open path for Vietnamese businesses. Viettels journey is recognized by Gartner as the result of a long-term vision, methodical investment, solid commitment to technological innovation and international cooperation strategy. This achievement of Viettel directly shows how businesses canVietnamese businesses want to be recognized internationally, affirming that Vietnam can completely compete with technological powers if they dare to set high goals and are persistent enough to achieve them. Because, technological autonomy is a prerequisite. When businesses can design, produce and develop their own products, they control quality, security and can innovate continuously. Next, put people and countries at the center. Viettel develops technology with the philosophy Technology for people, meaning that technology is only valuable when serving social development, helping people and businesses
