Vietnam’s G-Group to Build $300 Million AI Data Center Campus in Hanoi
Vietnam’s G-Group Technology Corporation has secured approval to build a $300 million high-tech data center campus in Hanoi, marking a significant step in the country’s push to become a regional hub for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. The investment underscores the growing demand for specialized AI infrastructure across Southeast Asia, where a $30 billion data center boom is rapidly accelerating.
G-Group announced on Tuesday that it received an investment certificate for the G-Campus Hoa Lac project at a Hanoi investment promotion conference held a day earlier. The campus, located on more than 38,000 square meters, will feature four functional zones supporting the entire high-tech value chain. Two of these zones are dedicated to research, development, testing, and design in AI, big data, the Internet of Things (IoT), high-performance computing (HPC), and cybersecurity. The remaining two zones will house a Tier III data center designed specifically for AI and HPC workloads, with an initial IT power capacity of 20 megawatts (MW). After expansion, total capacity is expected to reach 30 MW, providing data infrastructure, cloud computing, and commercial AI and HPC services for both domestic and international organizations.
Phung Anh Tuan, Chairman of G-Group, said that G-Campus aims to accompany Hanoi into the AI era by building a platform to serve research, technology development, digital transformation, and large-scale AI applications. Alongside receiving the investment certificate, G-Group signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Hanoi People’s Committee and OTECH, a member of Oman-based ICT solutions provider Omantel Group. The three parties will jointly research next-generation AI data center development models, cloud computing infrastructure, HPC, GPU computing, data services, information security, and digital transformation solutions. Under the agreement, the Hanoi People’s Committee will connect usage needs and support strategic technology projects, while OTECH will contribute experience in national-scale data infrastructure operations and sovereign cloud governance, alongside capital arrangement. G-Group will take overall responsibility for investment, technical resources, operations, and commercialization in the Vietnamese market.
The investment comes as Hanoi targets at least four IoT connections per resident by 2030 and aims to operate a digital government based on big data and AI platforms by 2035. These goals are expected to create demand for at least two hyperscale data centers, alongside specialized AI and edge data centers in the capital. The project highlights a broader trend in Southeast Asia, where nations are racing to build out data center capacity to support cloud computing and AI workloads, even as power constraints challenge the region’s rapid expansion.
