HANOI -- Vietnamese information technology leader FPT looks to turn Danang into a "smart city" in two years, focusing on fields such as agriculture, medicine, energy and traffic.
The company plans to spend 15 billion Vietnamese dong ($658,000) on pilot projects in the country's third-largest metropolis over the next year, aiming to begin smart city operations in 2020. FPT and the city of Danang signed a memorandum of understanding Thursday.
