The philosophy of “taking people as the center of all development strategies” applied by Becamex IDC throughout the past 30 years is also the fulcrum for new development aspirations.

Pioneering the creation of the “industrial – urban and service” model

Following the success of the Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park model and My Phuoc Industrial Park, Bau Bang Industrial Park – industrial park models that have spread to many provinces and cities, transforming the strategy towards green and smart development associated with innovation, Becamex IDC Corporation is implementing Cay Truong Industrial Park with a scale of 700 hectares in Bau Bang district (Binh Duong province).

As a new generation industrial park, Cay Truong Industrial Park is focused on being designed by Becamex IDC Corporation to integrate smart technology, from the use of renewable energy, water, waste treatment, to traffic management and security, to bring safety, reliability and efficiency to customers and workers.

Proudly sharing about the Cay Truong Industrial Park being deployed to meet the requirements of large investors, multinational corporations, and projects with modern technology, General Director of Becamex IDC Corporation Pham Ngoc Thuan said that this is a new generation industrial park, built according to the model of a new industrial ecosystem, with a foundation of innovation, science and technology, combined with regional traffic infrastructure, logistics system, training of high-quality labor force, full medical services, education and green infrastructure, creating a good living and working environment for experts and workers.

Mr. Pham Ngoc Thuan believes that with these outstanding new features, Cay Truong Industrial Park will create a strong attraction in attracting investment, creating confidence for investors to operate with peace of mind and helping the locality develop stably and sustainably…

With a tradition of more than 30 years of experience in the field of developing industrial park, urban and service infrastructure, Becamex IDC Corporation is the leading unit in implementing and deploying the development model “industry – urban and service” when forming a joint venture with Singaporean partner Sembcorp Group to form Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park Joint Venture Company Limited.

Considered a symbol of successful economic cooperation between Vietnam and Singapore, starting in 1996, up to now, the Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park model has spread throughout the country with 17 projects, providing production infrastructure for nearly 900 customers from 30 countries and territories, with a total investment capital of more than 19 billion USD; creating jobs for nearly 300,000 direct workers and millions of indirect workers around the industrial parks, contributing to fundamentally changing the appearance of areas with the presence of Vietnam-Singapore industrial parks.

A clear proof is that although it has just come into operation, Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park 3 (VSIP 3) in Binh Duong has attracted many large and prestigious investment projects, including Lego Group (Denmark) investing in a project of more than one billion USD; Pandora Group (Denmark) investing in a project of more than 100 million USD…

In fact, in localities with industrial parks invested by Becamex IDC Corporation, it has contributed to promoting rapid socio-economic development. Chairman of the People’s Committee of Bau Bang district (Binh Duong province) Vo Thanh Giau shared that from a purely agricultural district, thanks to Bau Bang Industrial Park and Bau Bang Industrial Park expansion, from 2014 to present, Bau Bang district’s economy has always had an average annual growth rate of 18.84%; industrial production value increased 4.72 times and reached 35,361 billion VND in 2023; total retail sales of goods and consumer service revenue increased by an average annual growth rate of 23.88% and reached 9,878 billion VND in 2023; attracting foreign investment from 50 projects with investment capital of more than 730 million USD increased to 283 projects with capital of more than 4.6 billion USD, attracting domestic investment from 170 projects with investment capital of 14,460 billion VND increased to 1,216 projects with investment capital of more than 32,535 billion VND…

Similarly, in Ben Cat city (Binh Duong province), My Phuoc 1, 2, 3 and Thoi Hoa industrial parks have achieved very high efficiency in attracting investment for economic development, contributing to helping Ben Cat city attract 866 projects with foreign investment capital with a total investment capital of more than 10 billion USD…

New generation model associated with attracting smart investment.

In addition to creating industrial park infrastructure to create development momentum, Becamex IDC Corporation has accompanied Binh Duong province in implementing the strategy of developing smart cities and innovation zones according to the goal of set targets.

Specifically, at the end of 2016, Binh Duong province approved the Binh Duong Smart City Project with the core being the new Binh Duong city. With the support of Becamex IDC Corporation, based on the cooperation between Binh Duong province and Eindhoven city, between Becamex IDC Corporation and Brainport, the Binh Duong Smart City Project has yielded remarkable sweet results.

With its tradition and experience in the field of “industrial – urban and service” infrastructure development, Becamex IDC Corporation has not only achieved outstanding results in Binh Duong but also contributed greatly to the socio-economic development in many provinces and cities across the country according to the direction of the Government and the Cooperation Program between Binh Duong province and other provinces and cities, aiming to replicate the successful model of Binh Duong province; especially the “industrial-urban and service” development model.

In the process of developing this model, the philosophy of “taking people as the center of all development strategies” has been implemented throughout by Becamex IDC Corporation. Ensuring the rights, stable life and long-term employment for people in the planning area has always been given special attention by the enterprise. In the area where industrial parks are developed, people must have a more prosperous life than before.

Therefore, in the industrial parks invested by Becamex IDC, the faster the industrial development, the more the people’s lives are improved. From there, the concept of “being planned” gradually changes to “being planned”, the desire to contribute and participate in industrial development is increasing and the people always support it.

Chairman of Binh Duong Provincial People’s Committee Vo Van Minh assessed that as the leading enterprise of Binh Duong province, Becamex IDC Corporation has made an important contribution to the realization of the Binh Duong Smart City Project.

In transforming the development model of “industry-urban and services” towards smart and sustainable direction, Becamex IDC Corporation has been contributing to help the province build new generation industrial parks and upgrade existing industrial parks into green, smart industrial parks, capable of providing 4.0 technology platforms such as: IoT, Big Data… to attract industries with high added value and help investors easily build and deploy smart factory models, smart production quickly and effectively.

According to Mr. Vo Van Minh, the province will move forward to form connected ecosystems according to the model of “industry-urban and services” associated with science and technology to promote research and development activities and innovation, digital service industries, digital economy throughout the province. Thanks to that, Binh Duong province will rise to a higher level in the industrial value chain, aiming to build a new ecosystem, supplementing the existing ecosystem, meeting the highest needs of workers, domestic and international investors in the current period of increasingly deep and comprehensive integration.
