Exploring Collaboration Opportunities in Da Nang
Case Studies for Local Companies by November
ThinkforBL is accelerating its efforts to strengthen AI reliability in collaboration with Vietnam’s IT industry.
On the 19th and 20th, ThinkforBL successfully established specific plans for cooperation with the Da Nang Semiconductor AI Research and Training Center (DSAC), a local government agency, and regional IT companies to enhance AI reliability during its visit to Da Nang, Vietnam.
On the 19th, the company held the "Trustworthy AI Seminar & Networking" event at the headquarters of the Vietnamese IT solutions company 'Enouvo'. Co-hosted by DSAC and the Korea Testing Laboratory (KTL), the seminar attracted more than 70 attendees, including local business representatives, practitioners, and IT officials from the local government.
During the seminar, experts from the company, KTL, and AI-based content service company TWIG FARM presented global trends in AI reliability, Korea's efforts in this area, as well as related education, consulting, and case studies on industrial AI certification and standards. The participants expressed interest in the remarks from the Korean side, which emphasized the need for a balanced consideration of technology, law, and regulations to address future AI technology regulations.
On the 20th, ThinkforBL visited the headquarters of promising local AI companies, including Vietnam's largest IT company, ‘FPT Software’, to explore detailed possibilities for collaboration. In one instance, AXSON held a multi-party meeting connecting Lucerne, Switzerland, and Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, to share information on AI reliability technologies and industrial AI certifications.
During the visit to Da Nang City Hall, the company and DSAC agreed to initiate the first collaborative project aimed at fostering the AI industry by establishing AI reliability case studies with local companies such as Enouvo and further expanding these efforts throughout Vietnam's industry. The company expects this collaboration to serve as a catalyst for the development of the "Trustworthy AI International Network (TRAIN)." Vietnam is emerging as a new IT outsourcing hub in Southeast Asia, supported by active policies from both central and local governments.
Le Hoang Phuc, Director of the DSAC Research and Training Center, stated, "Vietnam is rapidly transforming its existing software market into an AI-based market, nurturing new industries, and Da Nang is leading this shift by proactively preparing regulations and support measures. With strong determination to foster the AI industry, we recognized the competitiveness of the AI reliability proposed by the Korean side and plan to create successful case studies through a pilot project by November."
