Northern Bac Ninh province has so far attracted 33 projects in the fields of semiconductors, semiconductor materials, and manufacturing of supporting equipment and components, with a total registered capital exceeding $2.742 billion, the online newspaper of Radio the Voice of Vietnam cited figures from the Provincial Department of Science and Technology as reporting.
Of these, six projects focus on semiconductors and semiconductor materials, while 27 others involve the production of ancillary equipment and components for the industry. Many of these are large-scale investments from major international technology corporations.
Notable examples include Amkor Technology’s project with a total investment of $1.6 billion; Hana Micron Vina with $669 million; Micro Commercial Components with $115 million; Hana Micron Vietnam with $37.46 million; and Synergie Cad Vietnam Co., Ltd. with $21.21 million. Additionally, FPT’s semiconductor testing and packaging technology project has an investment capital of VND50 billion ($1.9 million).
The presence of these global giants is laying the groundwork for the locality to gradually build a semiconductor ecosystem. This development facilitates stronger links between electronics enterprises and the semiconductor industry while enhancing the province's ability to integrate into global supply chains.
Bac Ninh’s success in attracting semiconductor investment is significantly bolstered by its well-established electronics industry. Currently, the province is home to approximately 1,282 electronics companies, employing a workforce of around 481,948 people.
By 2025, the industrial production value of electronics enterprises in the province is projected to reach approximately VND1.85 quadrillion ($71 billion). This established industrial base serves as a crucial advantage, allowing electronics firms to transition into the semiconductor sector and form a highly integrated production and supply network.
In addition to this corporate foundation, the province’s industrial park system continues to be expanded and refined to meet the requirements of high-tech projects. Among the 39 industrial parks that have received investment policy approval, 23 are currently operational.
