Nowadays, Vietnam is gaining momentum to become a country of considerable importance, particularly due to its large semiconductor producers and increased demand from other Asian countries. The country is gearing up to increase its manufacturing capacity and overseas customers, notably from the United States. The government has implemented favorable policies related to taxation and investment promotions for market growth.

Other market growth factors include strategic location, competitive labor costs, and skilled manpower, further positioning it as a hub for semiconductor manufacturing in the region and attracting investments by industry giants such as Intel and Samsung. Thus, with the country continuing infrastructure investments and developing local talent, it is well positioned to meet this increased demand in semiconductors and earnestly contribute towards economic diversification and technological advancement.

Increasing Focus on 5G Connectivity is Amplifying Market Growth

A focus on 5G connectivity in Vietnam will continue to spur demand for semiconductors and drive growth in the country's semiconductor market. The government has invested in 5G infrastructure and supports startups and other players engaged in establishing 5G connectivity across Vietnam.

For instance, in July 2023, the 1st 5G PNM mobile network was created and deployed in Vietnam by Viettel for smart industries. The 1st network operator to win the 2500-2600 MHz at golden frequency band auction in March 2024. Viettel contributed to 5G coverage being 1.7 times greater than the two frequency band blocks of 3700-3800-MHz and 3800-3900-MHz. As per Viettel, the company hopes to offer widespread commercial 5G coverage in 63 provinces and cities of the nation, by the end of 2024, extending till next year.

A Continuous Need for Data Protection is Proliferating the Market Growth

The demand for semiconductors is expanding dramatically in Vietnam due to the growing need for data protection generated by artificial intelligence and cloud computing developments. Efficient real-time storage and processing solutions are becoming indispensable for organizations to handle enormous volumes of data daily. The Vietnamese semiconductor industry is being forced to increase production capacity to fulfill the expanding needs of data centers and electronic gadgets.

For instance, in February 2024, The Vietnamese Ministry of Public Security, announced that it had promulgated the Law on Personal Data Protection (PDP). This move was meant to strengthen measures for data privacy in the country. The main motive of this law is to establish strong frameworks and regulations that ensure the secure management, processing, and use of personal data. Hence, it can be deciphered that the PDP Law assures the country's citizens of their rights to privacy, therefore building trust in the fast-growing digital space.

A Rapid Growth in the Consumer Electronics Sector is Amplifying the Market Prosperity

The expansion of the consumer electronics sector is proliferating the semiconductor market in Vietnam. The demand for gadgets, such as smartphones, tablets, and smart home appliances, is growing due to urbanization and increased disposable incomes. Moreover, the government programs encourage high-tech businesses and the adoption of cutting-edge technology such as IoT and 5G, fueling this boom.

For instance, in June 2024, The Vietnamese government stated, after rigorous testing in 55 of the country's 63 provinces, 5G services will be made available nationally by the end of 2024. Major telecom providers such as Viettel, MobiFone, and VNPT are bidding for frequency bands that are up for auction from the Ministry of Information and Communications. The government delineated that 5G will contribute considerably to the economy by enhancing digital infrastructure, with GDP growth expected to reach 7.34% by 2025. In addition, 2G networks will be phased out as part of the transition, thereby easing the move toward a digital society.

Launch of Training Programs in Vietnam is Expediting the Market Prospects

Vietnam is prioritizing training programs in semiconductors to meet the increasing need for qualified engineers in this field. The training program is essential for fostering technological progress, especially in the areas of 5G and microchip manufacturing, as Vietnam looks to improve its position in the global semiconductor market.

For instance, in July 2024, through a collaboration with American companies Qorvo and Cadence, the Vietnamese government planned to expand its semiconductor sector by introducing new training courses in analog IC design. Forty trainees are presently enrolled in an intense program at the National Innovation Center, which seeks to teach 50,000 engineers in total. This program is expected to help in closing the skill gap in the semiconductor industry worldwide and facilitates Vietnam's incorporation in the international supply chain. Along with workforce development and infrastructural expenditures, the partnership promotes innovation and industry growth.

Government Initiatives Acting as a Catalyst

The government initiatives and policies towards the improvisation of semiconductors are aiding the market growth extensively. The government is focusing on the technological advancements of semiconductors via substantial investments in the sector. For instance, in May 2024, to encourage semiconductor investments in Ho Chi Minh City, the Vietnamese government strictly announced that the projects must have an initial investment of around USD 1.6 billion. Strategic investors will benefit from this effort by receiving tax advantages, accelerated customs processing, and assistance with equipment acquisitions. Vietnam's dedication to expanding its semiconductor sector intends to improve collaboration with global enterprises and expedite investment processes.
