Master plan on developing centralized IT zones adopted

PM Nguyen Tan Dung has approved a master plan on developing centralized IT zones to 2020 in a direction to 2025.

The master plan aims to develop several centralized IT zones in provinces and cities with sufficient legal and capital conditions and build two or three zones in Ha Noi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh cities.

To realize the targets, legal regulations and policies, especially preferential policies, on centralized IT zones will be improved and implemented strictly.
 

In addition, the Government calls for diverse resources, including foreign capital in building and developing the zones, particularly in infrastructure development as regulated.

The Government also encourages investments in research and development activities in the zones as well as linkages among the zones and training facilities.

A venture capital fund can be established to support incubation and operation of new businesses in the zones. Several incubation centers will be selected for investment to develop specialized products for State-run agencies and businesses.

The master plan also mentions the human resource development for the zones.
