Corporate Social Responsibilites

Supporting young talents

In 1999, the FPT young talent center (FYT), an idea of FPT Chairman Truong Gia Binh, was founded in order to gather Vietnam’s talented young people together and create conditions in which they could fully develop, become successful and contribute to national prosperity. In addition, FYT is thought to have become a bridge that connects talented youth for mutual support.
Each year, FYT will select 25-30 outstanding students at universities across the country. They must have a sufficiently high IQ, score well in GMAT, English and essay exams, work well in groups and interview well.

Activities of the Centre include:

Providing training programs to improve knowledge and soft skills.
Holding meetings that allow exchange and discussion with scientists, leading experts, and leaders of FPT and other enterprises.
Future career orientation.
Enabling members to take part in FPT projects.
