Strategic Location: The Nexus of Regional Connectivity
The Ha Nam High-Tech Park spans a total planned area of 663.19 hectares across the communes of Tran Thuong, Nhan Ha, and Nam Ly in Ninh Binh Province. A primary driver of the project’s exceptional appeal is its highly favorable geo-economic position. Located at the southern threshold of the capital city, the zone offers seamless connectivity to Northern Vietnam's major economic, industrial, and logistical hubs, including Hanoi, Hai Phong, Quang Ninh, and Bac Ninh, as well as key international seaports.
The region's external transport network-anchored by the Eastern North-South Expressway, National Highway 38B, and a synchronized inter-regional transport system currently under expansion-ensures the fluid movement of goods, facilitates the mobility of high-quality talent, and optimizes conditions for advanced research and manufacturing activities.
In addition to its logistical advantages, the Ha Nam High-Tech Park directly benefits from the robust educational, training, and research ecosystem of the adjacent Nam Cao University Urban Area. This close synergy between academic institutions, research institutes, and enterprises is poised to forge a comprehensive value chain-spanning talent cultivation, applied research, and technology commercialization-thereby fostering a dynamic and sustainable ecosystem for innovation.
A Synchronized Master Plan Tailored for the Innovation Ecosystem
The Ha Nam High-Tech Park is envisioned as a modern, multi-sector high-tech hub, powered by innovation and driven by scientific advancements. With a projected workforce of 70,000 to 100,000 personnel, the park is set to become a powerhouse for large-scale R&D and advanced manufacturing in Northern Vietnam.
According to the approved master plan, the development is meticulously organized into functional sub-zones: Research and Training Zone; High-Tech Product Manufacturing Zone: Spanning over 313 hectares (accounting for nearly 50% of the park's total area), this zone offers a vast land bank dedicated to attracting mega tech projects; High-Tech Services and Logistics Center; Modern Technical Infrastructure System
A defining feature of the park’s blueprint is its integration with the Nam Cao University Urban Area, operationalizing the "Quadruple Helix" model: State - University - Scientist - Enterprise. This structure serves as the cornerstone for accelerating applied research, technology transfer, and international-standard human resource development.
VSIP: The Vanguard Architect of Modern High-Tech Infrastructure
A historic milestone in the realization of the Ha Nam High-Tech Park was achieved when the Ninh Binh Provincial People’s Committee issued the decision approving both the investment policy and the Vietnam Singapore Industrial Park and Township Development Joint Stock Company (VSIP) as the official investor for the park’s infrastructure construction and operation project. The project represents a total investment of VND 5,990 billion, covering an area of approximately 628.36 hectares with an operating tenure of 50 years. Slated for execution from 2026 through the second quarter of 2032, VSIP will spearhead the development of a synchronized, state-of-the-art technical infrastructure, laying the groundwork to capture high-tech investment, R&D, and innovation.
On May 21, 2026, the Management Board of Nam Cao University Urban Area and Ha Nam High-Tech Park of Ninh Binh Province officially granted the Investment Registration Certificate to VSIP. This crucial legal milestone empowers the investor to mobilize resources and accelerate project execution. Notably, the presentation of this Certificate took place during the state visit to Singapore by General Secretary To Lam and a high-level Vietnamese delegation, which included Comrade Tran Huy Tuan, Member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Ninh Binh Provincial Party Committee. This event marks a sophisticated leap forward in investment cooperation between Ninh Binh and Singaporean partners.
VSIP’s commitment to the Ha Nam High-Tech Park not only underscores the province's competitive investment climate but also elevates Vietnam-Singapore relations in high technology and smart infrastructure, positioning the park as a magnet for premier domestic and international tech investors.
Anchoring the Future Growth of the Red River Delta
In alignment with Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo, which defines science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation as the core engines of national development, the Ha Nam High-Tech Park is destined to become a vital growth engine for both Ninh Binh Province and the wider Red River Delta. Beyond expanding the horizon for high-tech industries, the project will catalyze economic restructuring, bolster labor productivity, draw top-tier talent, and sharpen the locality's competitive edge.
With its strategic location, visionary master plan, synchronized infrastructure, and the backing of VSIP-a gold standard in industrial and urban township development in Vietnam-the Ha Nam High-Tech Park possesses every element required to captivate global investors.
Looking ahead, this landmark will stand not only as an epicenter for advanced research and manufacturing but also as a powerful symbol of Ninh Binh's aspiration to rise through knowledge and innovation. It is a bold step toward cementing science and technology as Vietnam's new economic engine, proudly marking the province’s place on the national map of innovation.
