Vingroup corporate restructuring and technology expansion

Overview

Vingroup has engaged in corporate restructuring and strategic partnerships to expand its technological and research capabilities.

In September 2026, the group approved the acquisition of VinFast Engineering Australia Pty Ltd from VinFast Vietnam. This move transitions the Australian entity to report directly to Vingroup, with the intent to use it as a centralized hub for market research and development in technology and real estate. Additionally, Vingroup approved using group assets as collateral to guarantee VinFast Vietnam’s foreign bank loans, which are guaranteed by the Italian export credit agency SACE S.p.A.

Concurrently, Vingroup entered a strategic partnership with the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology (VAST). This collaboration focuses on high-tech fields such as space technology, renewable energy, cybersecurity, and new materials. A primary goal of the partnership is the development of satellite constellations using Vietnamese-made micro-satellites to enhance national technological autonomy.
