FPT Software, Viet Nam’s leading IT solutions provider, announced the opening of its first office in the Scandinavian region and the 59th office internationally on Monday.
Within the framework of the Viet Nam – Denmark Business Forum, FPT Software and Vido Group, Viet Nam’s leading travel services provider, had a joint ribbon-cutting ceremony, marking both companies’ first footprint in Denmark.
The event was hosted by the Embassy of Viet Nam in Denmark, FPT Software and Vido Group, and was attended by Denmark’s State Secretary for Trade and Global Sustainability, H.E. Ms. Lina Gandløse Hansen, Vietnamese Ambassador to Denmark, Luong Thanh Nghi, and executives from Vietnamese and Danish companies.
The new office extends FPT Software’s presence in Europe to seven countries and aims at exploring opportunities for sustainable and innovative business growth. It is located in Kongens Lyngby, a commercial area and home to major companies, including Microsoft, COWI A/S and Bang & Olufsen, among others.
“Denmark is one of Viet Nam’s largest foreign investors. As Viet Nam’s leading corporation, FPT believes that with this newly opened office, we could contribute to strengthening the relationship between the two countries and act as a bridge between both sides’ businesses," FPT Chairman Truong Gia Binh said.
“I am very pleased to see FPT Software, a Vietnamese pioneering company in IT services, open its representative office in Denmark. This is the first time a big Vietnamese enterprise has set foot in the Danish market, one with very high standards. FPT Software's presence in Denmark, one of the world's leading countries in technology and digital transformation, has shown that Vietnamese businesses can fully reach out to the world,” Vietnamese Ambassador to Denmark Luong Thanh Nghi said.
“I believe that the presence of enterprises like FPT in Denmark or Carlsberg and LEGO in Viet Nam will contribute to promoting, strengthening and deepening the comprehensive partnership between Viet Nam and Denmark. The Embassy of Viet Nam in Denmark is committed to supporting and serving the interests of the people and businesses of the two countries,” Nghi added.
The ceremony was followed by two panel discussions on how businesses and governments of Viet Nam and Denmark can cooperate to promote digital transformation and green transition, as demonstrated by successful cases and experiences from top enterprises such as LEGO, Covestro, and Schaeffler. — VNS
