📋 Tender Overview
On February 27, the Vietnam Software and Information Technology Services Association (Vinasa) held a press conference to announce the Top 10 Program and the Vietnam Digital Technology Enterprise Map 2025 with many important innovations.
The 2025 program has continued to honor outstanding digital technology enterprises and for the first time launched the map of Vietnamese digital technology enterprises - an important tool to help position enterprises in the market, improve competitiveness, and expand domestic and international cooperation opportunities.
According to Mr. An Ngoc Thao, Deputy General Secretary of Vinasa, the unit aims to implement the Top 10 Digital Technology Enterprises Program to develop together, perfecting the map of Vietnamese digital technology enterprises each year, as a foundation for authentication and trust, helping businesses better take advantage of these opportunities.
Starting from 2025, the Vietnam digital technology enterprise map applies an evaluation model based on two main axes: "Vision" (showing the development orientation and future innovation capabilities of the enterprise) and "Implementation ability" (assessing the level of implementation and application of products and services into reality).
Based on two axes, businesses are divided into four groups: Strength (strong implementation capacity, focusing on practical efficiency), Locomotive (leading the market, having both vision and capability), Specialized (can be strong in a specific field, in-depth development) and Exploration (innovation).
Through the above criteria, the map will provide comprehensive data on the Vietnamese digital technology business ecosystem, classified by sector, scale, innovation capacity and development potential. In the future, the map will be more complete, reflecting businesses in many different segments, not just limited to the Top 10.
According to the Ministry of Information and Communications, in 2024, the total revenue of the information and communications industry is estimated to reach VND 4,243,984 billion (about USD 166.7 billion), an increase of 13.2% compared to 2023. Of which, the digital technology industry (ICT) contributes VND 3,878,296 billion (about USD 151.86 billion), accounting for more than 91% of the total industry revenue and 11% of GDP.
The total number of digital technology enterprises operating in Vietnam reached 54,500, up 16% over the previous year. Notably, the export turnover of hardware and electronics is estimated at 132.3 billion USD, up 11.6% over 2023, accounting for 32% of the country's total export value.
In particular, on December 22, 2024, the Politburo issued Resolution 57-NQ/TW on science, technology, innovation and digital transformation development, aiming to make Vietnam a leading innovative country in the region by 2035.
Among them, there are some notable support policies such as tax and credit incentives for businesses investing in innovation, liability exemption mechanisms in testing new technologies, creating conditions for businesses to access international markets through specialized trade promotion programs, etc.
With the push for investment in new technologies (AI, big data, blockchain, etc.), green technology, and business support policies under Resolution 57-NQ/TW, Vietnam's ICT industry is expected to continue to grow strongly, aiming to reach VND 4,320,000 billion in revenue by 2025, contributing more than 12% of GDP and increasing the proportion of Vietnamese value in the industry from 32% to 50% by 2030.
