# UAE firm G42, Vietnamese firms in deal to develop AI infrastructure in Vietnam

> Abu Dhabi's G42 and Vietnamese firms FPT Corporation and Viet Thai Group have signed a $1 billion deal to develop AI infrastructure in Vietnam. The agreement aims to enhance Vietnam's AI capabilities and cloud infrastructure, supporting its goal to become a leading AI hub in Southeast Asia while ensuring data sovereignty. The initiative includes deploying cloud capacity across three data centers, with plans for a $2 billion hyperscale data center in Ho Chi Minh City.

HANOI, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Abu Dhabi-based technology group G42, and a consortium comprising the FPT Corporation (FPT.HM) and the Viet Thai Group, have signed a deal to develop sovereign AI capabilities and cloud infrastructure across Vietnam, G42 said on Monday.

Under the framework cooperation agreement backed by a commitment of $1 billion, the firms will deploy cloud capacity across three data centre locations in the Southeast Asian country, it said in a statement.

“The initiative aims to support Vietnam’s ambition to become an AI-native society and a leading AI hub in Southeast Asia, while ensuring national data sovereignty and digital resilience,” G42 said.

Vietnamese state media said last year the firms planned to develop a $2 billion hyperscale data centre in Vietnam’s business hub Ho Chi Minh City.
