According to the memorandum of cooperation signed by the highest leaders of the two units, FPT Smart Cloud will assist the Postal and Telecommunications Technology Institute (PTIT) in orienting and developing AI curriculum for undergraduate and postgraduate levels to meet the demand for high-quality human resources in society.
As a leading technology enterprise and a pioneer in AI research and application in Vietnam and the region, FPT Smart Cloud commits to supporting PTIT in in-depth scientific research and technology transfer in the field of Artificial Intelligence.

FPT Smart Cloud, which serves tens of millions of users in 15 countries worldwide, aims to become an incubator for young Vietnamese talents, ready to break through, innovate, and master technology. Building on the solid foundation of the FPT Corporation after 35 years of developing core technologies, the company plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of human resources for Vietnam’s information technology industry, contributing to the development of a digital society.
As the only university directly under the Ministry of Information and Communications, the Postal and Telecommunications Technology Institute is one of the leading institutions in training ICT human resources in the country, with 25,000 students across two training facilities in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. The AI Faculty of the Institute will not only train leading experts in the field of AI but also serve as a center for researching and developing the most advanced technological solutions, addressing the urgent needs of society with the continuously increasing demand for AI professionals.
