IBM branch debuts in Danang |
The new office is expected to help Danang deploy the “Smarter City” programme and build an e-administration management model.
In recent years, the Danang municipal authorities have coordinated with IBM to increase the quality of public services. IBM has also collaborated with the city to set up an IT centre at Danang University to train high-quality human resources.
IBM Vietnam and the Danang People’s Committee launched a project to make Danang a smarter city on May 7. The project covers three main fields including food safety, water supply and drainage management, as well as helping improve waste treatment in industrial zones.
Danang is only city in Vietnam, and one of just 33 cities in the world, to receive assistance from IBM in 2012 under the corporation’s Smarter City programme.
