These factories, located in Japan and Viet Nam, secured the 36th and 38th positions, respectively, in the TOP500 list of the world's most powerful supercomputers.
Launched in November 2024, FPT's AI Factories have been chosen by leading technology companies such as LandingAI to develop advanced AI solutions, with a view to creating practical value for society.
FPT aims to develop three more AI factories globally over the next five years, contributing to Viet Nam's goal of becoming a regional leader in AI computing infrastructure.
The 65th edition of the TOP500 not only confirms the computational power and technical capacity of FPT's AI Factories but also highlights their internationally certified service quality-ready to meet the AI research, development, and deployment needs of organizations, enterprises, and individuals worldwide.
The recognition also marks Viet Nam's first entry into the group of the world's top 15 AI nations, joining global powers such as the U.S., China, Japan, Germany, and France. It reflects FPT's effort to elevate Viet Nam's position in the global technology landscape.
TOP500 is a prestigious global ranking of high-performance computing (HPC) systems based on the LINPACK benchmark, which evaluates a system's ability to perform complex numerical calculations in FLOPS (floating point operations per second).
The TOP500 list, launched in 1993 by three renowned HPC researchers, is published twice a year and is widely recognized by governments, scientific institutions, and businesses as a standard for assessing hardware performance, system design, operational optimization, and the ability to handle large-scale AI and scientific tasks./.
