Japan Looks To Vietnam For Semiconductor Talent

  • Category:Other
Japanese semiconductor manufacturers are turning to Vietnam to address labor shortages.

A delegation from Japan’s Kyushu region and industry officials visited Hanoi to explore hiring opportunities. They met with Vietnam’s largest IT company and Hanoi University of Science and Technology.

Kuroki Yoichi from Tera Probe noted that Vietnamese engineers have basic training, which could support business expansion.

Kyushu’s semiconductor sector lacks specialized workers.

With a population of 100 million and a median age in the early thirties, Vietnam offers a strong talent pool. The government plans to train 50,000 semiconductor workers by 2030.

Vietnam’s appeal extends beyond Japan.

In 2022, Samsung Electronics built its largest Southeast Asia research facility in Hanoi. Nvidia also announced plans to open an R&D center in the country.
