The first Vietnam‑Korea AI and Semiconductor Summit took place in Hanoi, where eight memoranda of understanding were signed. These agreements open new pathways for Vietnamese youth to work in AI and chip technology.

The eight MoUs link Vietnamese and South Korean businesses, industry associations and universities. They focus on three areas: business connectivity, technology development and workforce training. This structure aims to match companies with skilled graduates.

Partnerships were created for semiconductor supply‑chain cooperation, AI‑chip integration and education exchanges. They will develop specialized training programmes, applied research projects and professional seminars, helping students gain practical skills.

Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Tran Trung Tinh said AI and semiconductors are strategic technologies for Vietnam. He set three cooperation priorities: joint research and design, long‑term high‑quality workforce training, and an open, secure AI‑semiconductor ecosystem.

Vietnam aims for annual semiconductor industry revenue of more than $25 billion and plans to train 50,000 semiconductor professionals with university‑level qualifications by 2030. Reaching these goals will require many new jobs and training slots for young people.

The summit stressed that the real work begins after signing, with joint research programmes, commercially viable products and training that meets industry demand. Watching these projects develop could shape your future career in AI or chips.
