VN and Japan signs MoU on IC development

Viet Nam's Integrated Circuit Design and Education Research Centre (ICDREC) and the Japanese Nagano Techno Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding on microchips in HCM City on Tuesday.

The two sides will work together on designing and manufacturing the microchips, training human resources, participating in common activities and exchanging information and scientific documents.

The signing was seen as a milestone for the development of the integrated circuit sector in Viet Nam. ICDREC Director Ngo Duc Hoang said it extends co-operation opportunities within the sector to other nations - especially the Japanese market, a leading country in this field.

Le Thai Hy, Deputy Head of the steering committee for the city's integrated circuit (IC) industrial development programme, said international co-operation played an important role in the country's IC development.

He said Viet Nam has been lagging behind other countries in the sector, and has faced particular difficulties as a result.

ICDREC has received much attention from Japanese partners after its participation at 2015 SEMICON Japan, an international exhibition for the microelectronics manufacturing industry held in Tokyo.
