- Tran Kim Chung, Chairman of CT Group Vietnam , co-hosted and spoke at Vietnam’s first Semiconductor Advanced Packaging Forum in March 2025, held in collaboration with VNUHCM – University of Science. The event brought together government, academic, and industry leaders to chart Vietnam’s path in semiconductor innovation.
- CT Group is a diversified Vietnamese conglomerate leading in high-tech innovation and strategic urban development. Its portfolio spans semiconductor technology, artificial intelligence, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), green cryptocurrency, ESG housing, electric mobility, quantum computing, and clean energy
- Amid global economic volatility, Chung has pivoted CT Group from real estate into deep tech. His contrarian strategy led to early investments in AI, UAVs, and semiconductors – now core engines of Vietnam’s emerging tech economy.
- He initiated the construction of three semiconductor plants across Vietnam, with the first opening in 2025. These facilities will serve as both manufacturing hubs and talent incubators, accelerating Vietnam’s technical workforce development.
- Chung forged strategic alliances with VNU-HCM and government leaders to align academic curricula with industry needs. His leadership catalyzed the Semiconductor Workforce Development Program, ensuring Vietnam’s talent pipeline is globally competitive.
- He championed heterogeneous integration and high-performance computing packaging technologies. By convening global experts at Vietnam’s Semiconductor Advanced Packaging Forum, he accelerated knowledge transfer and positioned Vietnam for high-value innovation.
- CT Group’s expansion into six emerging tech sectors was a calculated move, not a gamble. Chung’s disciplined planning and early R&D investments enabled commercial breakthroughs in AI, genetics, and quantum computing by 2023.
- He operates with strategic patience and bold execution. His “build quietly, launch loudly” ethos has earned CT Group respect across Asia and positioned Vietnam for a semiconductor leap.
- Tran Kim Chung’s journey reflects vision, conviction, and national service. He urges professionals to think globally, invest in learning, and build with purpose—because the future belongs to those who shape it.
