FPT recently announced the opening of its first office in Stockholm, Sweden. The new office is located in Lindholmen Science Park, Gothenburg, Sweden’s leading innovation hub.
This strategic location enables FPT to enhance its ability to expand its local presence, delivery capabilities, and consulting services across the Nordic and wider European regions.
The office inauguration occurred during the Vietnam-Sweden Business Forum. Hosted by the Embassy of Vietnam in Sweden and FPT, the event featured discussions on enhancing Vietnam-Sweden cooperation in digital transformation, innovation, automotive, and energy transition.
The event was attended by H.E. Tran Van Tuan, Ambassador of Vietnam to Sweden, Mdm. Camilla Mellander, Director-General for Trade Policy at the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, alongside representatives from 50 government agencies and organizations, including Volvo Cars, Swedbank, Swedfund, Syre, and Vilja Solutions.
Sweden, renowned for its leadership in digital transformation, boasts a robust innovation ecosystem and a comprehensive AI-focused strategy for cross-sector collaboration and investment.
The Swedish government’s proactive measures to address the digital skills shortage, including attracting foreign tech players and utilizing international talent, create an ideal environment for FPT to establish its presence and capitalize on the country’s growth opportunities.
The IT firm also plans to build a workforce of 1,000 professionals globally in the next three years, dedicated to serving the dynamic European market.
“As a leading Vietnamese corporation, FPT is committed to deepening this relationship by leveraging Vietnam’s highly skilled and resourceful IT workforce to advance technological collaborations, especially in AI, semiconductor, automotive, and green transformation. Our new office will act as a vital bridge, connecting businesses on both sides and enabling Nordic customers to innovate and grow with cutting-edge technologies, comprehensive solutions, and access to a world-class talent pool,” stated Dr. Truong Gia Binh, FPT Corporation Founder and Chairman.
“The Embassy of Vietnam in Sweden believes that FPT’s opening of an office in Sweden marks a positive step forward in cooperation in the fields of science and technology between the two countries. FPT’s activities in Sweden will help local businesses gain more understanding not only about FPT but also about Vietnamese businesses in general, becoming a bridge for other cooperation activities between the two nations. This is also a meaningful event contributing to the celebration of the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Sweden,” said H.E. Tran Van Tuan, Ambassador of Vietnam to Sweden.
FPT first entered the European market in 2008 and has since established a strong presence in nine countries.
