CMC Affirming Leadership in Superior Technology Solutions

Established in 1993, in 30 years of development, CMC Corporation has maintained steady growth and increasingly affirmed its position in the market with outstanding products, services and technology solutions. CMC aims to become a digital corporation to support businesses and organizations to accelerate digital transformation and promote the innovation movement in the Vietnamese business community.

Mission to lead the new wave of technology

As a leading information technology-telecom firm in Vietnam, CMC has always affirmed its position in the domestic and international markets through four key business areas: Technology & Solution, Telecommunications Services, Global Business, and Research & Education. CMC is known as a reliable and reputable partner of medium and large ICT projects in such fields as government, education, tax, treasury, customs, insurance, electricity, banking, finance and business.

With the mission of leading the new technology wave to further develop world-class technology products, services and solutions, CMC currently owns the Cross Vietnam Cable System, the first Vietnamese cable route to connect across Southeast Asia, directly connected to A-Grid telecom network infrastructure, directly connected to five international undersea fiber optic cables: AAE1, APG, A-Grid, Unity and Faster. CMC Telecom, an affiliate of CMC Corporation, is also one of the first three companies in the world to obtain the MEF 3.0 Certification - a certificate that certifies its ability to provide the highest-quality Ethernet connectivity service on the market, based on globally recognized standards.

In addition, C.OPE2N is an open infrastructure platform developed by CMC Corporation for companies. This architectural system integrates all of CMC's technological strengths such as Multi Cloud platform, Data platform, AI and Application platform. With C.OPE2N, businesses can choose the best infrastructure, deployment, application and integration services from providers and CMC will help manage, optimize and expand service for their business activities.

Besides technological capabilities, CMC continues to implement the CMC Creative Space Project, which includes an office complex and a data center located at the center of three big cities: Hanoi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City.

During three decades of development, with its efforts and contributions, CMC has been honored with lot of certificates of appreciation and noble awards such as Vietnam Gold Star Award, Top Information Technology Cup at Computer World Expo, Top 20 ASEAN Famous Brand, Top 5 Internet Service Provider in Vietnam, Top 500 Largest Private Enterprise in Vietnam, and Vietnam Value Brand Award.

Aspiration to make Vietnam an Asia-Pacific “Digital Hub”

The draft information and communication infrastructure plan for the 2021-2030 period, developed by the Ministry of Information and Communications, stated a development requirement that Vietnam become a "Digital Hub" - a place to transmit, connect, store and process data of the region and the world by 2030. In the spirit of “Storing Vietnamese data in Vietnam”, CMC has invested in building a modern data center system to synchronize and complete the national digital infrastructure.

Accordingly, the inauguration and operation of CMC Data Center Tan Thuan (DC Tan Thuan) in June 2022 has enabled the corporation to improve its capacity of providing digital infrastructure services and digital transformation for government, official and corporate customers. DC Tan Thuan brings better connectivity and services for customers with 1,200 high-capacity network racks, with an individual rack capacity of 20kw in an area of 10,000 square meters. This data center, designed by B-Barcelona Singapore, complies with the strictest standards for a modern data center and is the first and only data center in Vietnam to be certified Uptime Tier III for both design and construction.

CMC Telecom now owns three data centers, the first data centers in Vietnam to have the PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) payment security certificate for the financial and banking sector operated by well-trained experts and technicians who have earned international certificates such as CDCE, CDCS, CDCP and CDFOM.

In addition to technology infrastructure, education investment is also an approach of CMC to turn Vietnam into the "Digital Hub" of the Asia-Pacific region. On July 26, 2022, CMC University was established with the philosophy of enlightening, innovating, differentiating and building high-quality human resources and taking the lead in some sci-tech fields in the world. The university is designed to become a "smart, innovative university" in the 2022-2032 period and a "research university" after 2032. Its top goals are to become a technology university that teaches the expertise needed for the country’s technology development and digital economy. It plans to train 20,000 - 30,000 students by 2039. This is also the "digital aspiration" importantly stated in CMC’s development journey.

Mr. Nguyen Trung Chinh, President of the Board of Directors / Executive President of CMC Corporation, said that in 2021-2025, CMC aims to become a global firm with billions of US dollars in revenue and more than 10,000 employees. The group will be consistent with the path to become a digital transformation service provider and consultant in Vietnam to help domestic firms and organizations conduct successful digital transformation, shape the cloud computing service market and new SaaS (software as a service) and stand among the top in the network security market.

In the coming time, CMC will continue to focus on three breakthrough strategies: Building digital transformation, a world-class digital platform; creating a large digital service market domestically and globally; and creating a space to converge the quintessence of global digital human resources in Vietnam for national construction.

“Doing so not only affirms CMC's commitments to turn Vietnam into a Digital Hub in the Asia-Pacific region but also enables digital transformation and digital economy for a powerful and prosperous Vietnam,” he stated.
