Khanh Hoa province implements high-tech talent and investment policies

Khanh Hoa province is shifting its human resource strategy from degree-based recruitment to a competency-based model to attract specialists in high-knowledge sectors. These priority fields include marine technology, semiconductors, artificial intelligence, data, energy, and nuclear physics. Under Resolution No. 29/2026/NQ-HĐND, effective September 2026, the province offers significant financial incentives for high-quality personnel, including one-time support payments ranging from 250 million VND for university graduates to 1.5 billion VND for professors. Additionally, qualified experts may receive monthly income supplements equal to their current salary for five years, along with housing assistance.

In a related development for the province's high-tech sector, the Hememics Vietnam high-tech graphene and biochip manufacturing plant has been granted investment registration. This project, a joint venture between US-based Hememics Biotechnologies and Viet Khanh-Khanh Hoa Joint Stock Company, marks the province's first high-tech investment of this kind. The facility, located in the Trang E 2 Industrial Cluster, will focus on producing graphene materials, biochips, sensor chips, and in vitro diagnostic products. The project is planned in two stages, with the first phase expected to be operational by the second quarter of 2027.
