DA NANG (Biz Hub) — The central city's planning and investment department granted an investment licence to the Self Wing Viet Nam Company in the business start-up education sector yesterday.

Viet Nam is the first country where the company has set up its personal education system in Ha Noi, HCM City and Da Nang.

As per the plan, the Self Wing International College will open in the central city next July to support an anticipated surge in Japanese investment into Viet Nam and Da Nang City in the coming years.

According to the city's investment promotion centre, Da Nang has drawn 390 foreign direct investment (FDI) projects with a total capital of US$3.6 billion, of which nearly 100 projects, worth $390 million, are from Japan.

Last year, the city's investment promotion centre also launched its Japanese Desk Da Nang team, which will be available every Wednesday to help Japanese investors with information about administrative procedures, investment licences, priority policies and other adjustments.

The city plans to build a 134ha industrial park for medium and small-sized businesses from Japan.

FPT Software has sent 101 information technology (IT) trainees from Da Nang, Ha Noi and HCM City to participate in a nine-month training programme in Japan.

The training is being held as part of the 10,000-Bridge Software Engineer (BrSE) programme. — VNS
