Chip “Make in Vietnam”: VIẾT TIẾP GIẤC MƠ CỦA CHA ANH | Vinh Quang Nguyễn | TEDxFTU Hanoi
From a dream nurtured over four decades by our ancestors, Vietnam's journey to conquer the global semiconductor industry has been concretized through countless efforts, filled with both opportunities and challenges. At TEDx FTUHanoi 2024, Mr. Nguyen Vinh Quang - Founder and CEO of FPT Semiconductor - guided the audience on a journey back in time to reflect on this path to the present day.
Vietnam is now once again trying to conquer the world with “semiconductor chips.” The audience was captivated by the journey to conquer the global semiconductor industry through three significant phases, starting with the Z181 Factory and culminating in FPT's PMIC chips. Moreover, in today's era, Vietnam stands at the precipice of securing a position on the global semiconductor map, and to realize this ambitious goal, the greatest opportunity lies with Vietnam's youth.
With “Make in Vietnam” chips, Mr. Quang believes that Vietnam's young generation will continue the 40-year journey and fulfill the dream of our ancestors! In 2022, Nguyen Vinh Quang established FPT Semiconductor, carrying on the long-held ambition of producing "Make in Vietnam" semiconductors. This venture has resulted in the creation of the first microchips for IoT applications in the healthcare sector, marking a significant breakthrough in affirming Vietnam's technological prowess.
Moreover, FPT has selected Power Management IC (PMIC) design for IoT devices. Often considered the heart of electronic devices, PMIC ensures their smooth operation. These achievements have even extended to international markets like Japan, Korea, Taiwan, the US, Europe, and China, elevating Vietnam's standing in the global semiconductor industry.
With over a decade of experience and as a visionary leader, Mr. Nguyen Vinh Quang has driven FPT Semiconductor to achieve remarkable feats, from designing and developing various semiconductors to cultivating a talented engineering team and fostering international partnerships.

- 11:02The Human Revolution: How AI empowers us | Guus Witjes | TEDxROC NijmegenThanks to rapid advancements in Artificial Intelligence, powerful tools are now accessible to everyone, everywhere. Yet, a common anxiety persists: will AI replace us, or threaten our future? But what if AI isn't about limitation, but about sparking a profound Human Revolution – one that amplifies our capabilities?In his talk Guus Witjes reframes the narrative, revealing how AI democratizes knowledge, putting more access to collective wisdom in your pocket than Bill Clinton had as president in the 1990s! This monumental shift is democratizing power for everyone, from small business owners competing with large corporations to students in challenging environments. The core idea? AI is deeply connected to autonomy.Discover the transformative potential of cultivating your own "AI swarm" – your squad of tireless, specialized AI assistants. Imagine designing your personal "Social Media Mike" to save hours, or "Tristan" as your triathlon coach. It’s about creating custom tools to supercharge your unique thoughts, not overshadow them.Master, when interacting with AI, the simple 3C framework: Character, Context, Clarity. And remember: 'good input is good output!'Learn the crucial mindset shift for partnering with AI, freeing you to focus on the truly human aspects of your work.Join in to explore how we can actively shape a future driven by vision, not fear, empowering an equal world for all.
