The center will focus on research, production, and training technology experts.
FPT Corporation Chairman Truong Gia Binh hoped this 15-hectare complex would turn Binh Dinh into the region's leading artificial intelligence (AI) center, a scientific hub for testing the world's latest technologies.
He said it requires clear goals, thorough planning, and the best human resources to make the goal possible.
