At the National Make in Vietnam Forum 2025, held on December 30th, CMC Technology Group drew strong attention as it was officially recognized for implementing two national missions in 2025: CMC AI Cloud and CMC OpenAI/CLS. At the same time, CMC announced its registration for six national missions for 2026, of which the C-HEALTH Platform has been selected by the Ministry of Science and Technology as a national mission assigned to CMC for implementation in 2026.
This year’s forum focused on accelerating Make in Vietnam products into a new phase of development, where Vietnamese technology enterprises go beyond simply “building products” to leading through platforms, core technologies, and ecosystems. These efforts are designed to directly serve national innovation goals and strengthen strategic autonomy.

Two National Missions for 2025: National Cloud and AI for the Legal Sector
According to CMC representatives, being entrusted with and recognized for implementing two national missions in 2025 marks a significant milestone, reflecting strong confidence in the ability of Vietnamese enterprises to master core technologies. It also sets high benchmarks for quality, security, and scalability in large-scale deployment.
With CMC OpenAI/CLS, CMC stated that the mission includes:
- A legal virtual assistant serving the two-tier government system, and
- A large language model (LLM) for Vietnam’s legal domain, both continuing under the national mission roadmap for 2025.
This direction aims to bring AI into domains that demand strict standards and high reliability, supporting the review, search, synthesis, and processing of legal work in the context of an increasingly vast and rapidly evolving legal documentation system.
On the infrastructure pillar, CMC AI Cloud was introduced as a national cloud computing platform, continuing its rollout under the 2025 national mission roadmap. CMC emphasized that “Make in Vietnam” in cloud computing is not merely about service provision, but about progressively achieving autonomy in infrastructure, operational capabilities, and core platform layers, strong enough to serve as a foundation for shared national systems.
In its performance update, CMC highlighted its goal of building “deployment-ready” technology capabilities with a high level of maturity, grounded in the philosophy of “Vietnamese intelligence and data,” and oriented toward mastering core technologies rather than relying on proprietary platforms.
CMC Chairman’s Address: Innovating to Escape Dependence on “New-Style Technological Colonialism”
At the forum, Mr.Chinh Nguyen Trung, Chairman of the Board and Executive Chairman of CMC, delivered a keynote on innovation and mastering core technologies in a context where AI and big data have become decisive factors for productivity, competitiveness, and national strategic autonomy.

He stressed that without control over core technologies, nations risk falling into a low-value “outsourcing trap,” facing data and knowledge drain, and losing economic and security self-determination. From this perspective, investment in science and technology must be seen as an investment in national sovereignty, essential to breaking dependency and avoiding a form of “new-style technological colonialism,” where data, platforms, and standards are dominated by external technology centers.
At the heart of his argument, he noted that history shows: nations that master science and technology are those that control their own development destiny. Science, technology, and innovation, he asserted, are “almost the only tools” capable of upgrading growth quality, driving productivity breakthroughs, and escaping the middle-income trap. Beyond that, they are the core competitive capabilities that determine survival in the global market. The path toward Vietnam’s 2045 aspiration, he emphasized, must be one of autonomy and leadership.
“Enterprises as Architects of a National Innovation Ecosystem”: Four Strategic Task Groups
CMC Chairman proposed an action framework positioning enterprises as architects of a national innovation ecosystem, built around four key task groups:
First – Institutions: Establish mechanisms that accept risk in innovation, while protecting intellectual property to encourage long-term investment in R&D and commercialization of research outcomes.
Second – Core technologies: Prioritize foundational spearheads such as AI, semiconductors, and digital infrastructure, as these layers determine strategic autonomy and competitive positioning.
Third – Enterprises: Build strong, large-scale enterprises with sufficient capacity for long-term investment, capable of mastering product ecosystems and “pulling” the domestic market toward higher standards.
Fourth – The “Triple Helix” linkage: Develop an innovation ecosystem where the State, Enterprises, and Universities/Research Institutes collaborate with clear roles:
- The State designs institutions, sandboxes, and invests in strategic digital infrastructure;
- Enterprises commercialize research, make major R&D investments, and master domestic core technologies;
- Universities and research institutes supply practice-ready talent, conduct breakthrough basic research, and incubate innovative ideas.
According to CMC, this model aims to solve the challenge of “starting from national problems to create core technologies,” while ensuring that innovation is measured by real-world deployment capability, not just ideas.
Registering Six National Missions for 2026, with C-HEALTH as the First Highlight
Beyond the two 2025 missions, CMC announced its registration of six national missions for 2026, aligned with the development of shared platforms and core capabilities for the public sector, enterprises, and citizens. These include:
- CMC OpenAI/CLS (continuing the 2025 roadmap): Legal virtual assistant for the two-tier government system and LLM for Vietnam’s legal sector.
- CMC AI Cloud (continuing the 2025 roadmap): National cloud computing platform.
- CMC Comprehensive Security Platform: A comprehensive national cybersecurity platform “Made by CMC.”
- C-GOV Platform: A management, operations, and digital transformation platform for communes and wards “Made by CMC.”
- C-HEALTH Platform: A digital healthcare and smart health management platform “Made by CMC.”
- C-Vision Platform: An intelligent monitoring, image analytics, and operations platform “Made by CMC.”
Among these, the C-HEALTH Platform has been selected by the Ministry of Science and Technology as the national mission assigned to CMC for implementation in 2026. CMC views this as a significant expansion of its Make in Vietnam capabilities into a critical sector with high requirements for reliability, security, and data protection, while offering clear potential for social impact.

CMC’s Commitment: Mobilizing All Resources for the 2025-2026 National Missions
Concluding his remarks, the CMC Chairman emphasized both pride and responsibility in being entrusted with national missions, affirming them as strategic priorities for realizing technological autonomy and making tangible contributions to the country during 2025–2026.
He reaffirmed that CMC will make strong, long-term investments across infrastructure, core technologies, data, and high-quality human resources to effectively deliver the missions recognized in 2025 and the new mission in 2026. Through this, CMC aims to create scalable Make in Vietnam platforms that serve the public sector and broader markets, helping Vietnam move faster on its path toward independence, autonomy, and prosperity.
