- Hanoi, November 14, 2025 -

People & Technology (PnT) recently joined the Hanoi business mission led by Korea’s Ministry of SMEs and Startups and POSCO International, with on-the-ground coordination by 42International under the Export Voucher program. The goal for PnT was clear: validate demand for smart-hospital transformation in Vietnam and build the right local partnerships to execute credibly.

Through focused meetings with pre-vetted Vietnamese counterparts—primarily distributors and systems integrators—PnT signed three MOUs, highlighted by a strategic agreement with Nanosoft, a healthcare-experienced partner that already maintains ties with leading Korean healthcare companies. We also opened a collaboration channel with FPT Information System (FPT-IS), a top systems integrator serving major hospital groups. Together, these relationships strengthen market access, technical integration, and deployment credibility.

Briefings at the Global Business Center (GBC) and the Korea Startup Center (KSC) reinforced why Vietnam is a strong fit for PnT’s platform. The economy is expanding rapidly; policy continuity and openness to foreign investment are drawing significant healthcare upgrades; and Korean corporate presence is deep. In hospitals—especially private and “international” facilities—digital transformation is a lever for reputation and competitiveness. Partners emphasized the adoption drivers we know well: Vietnamese-language UX, nurse-friendly dashboards, proven integration with incumbent HIS (e.g., ISofH), and flexible commercial models such as user-based pricing. The market is relationship-driven and proof-first: decisions follow compliance, pilot results, and consistent local follow-up—an environment where PnT’s partner-led approach excels.

“Our team was pleasantly surprised by the country’s rapid growth and the significant opportunity it presents for digital-transformation companies like ours to help accelerate that momentum. Some technologies already widely adopted in Vietnam are things I’d gladly bring back home,” said Elodie Szablewski, Head of Global Business.

PnT is now investigating the local opportunities in detail and preparing for possible localized enablement : Vietnamese UI, streamlined clinical views, and clear HIS integration paths—while coordinating with capable local partners to identify reference opportunities where real-time smart-hospital capabilities can demonstrate measurable impact on patient flow, safety, and operations. The interest we encountered confirms the timing: partner-first, proof-first, and tailored to Vietnamese clinical reality.

People & Technology thanks the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, POSCO International, 42International, and the teams at GBC and KSC Hanoi for convening high-caliber counterparts and for their guidance throughout the mission.
