Da Nang: First building of Software Park No. 2 begins operation.

DNVN - The Chairman of the People's Committee of Da Nang City has issued a Decision approving the plan for exploiting the information infrastructure assets of the ICT1 building in the Da Nang Software Park (Software Park No. 2) (Phase 1).

On March 12th, Le Duc Vien, Director of the Da Nang Department of Science and Technology, announced that, with the approval of the City People's Council, the Chairman of the Da Nang City People's Committee had issued Decision 608/QD-UBND approving the plan for exploiting information infrastructure assets in Software Park No. 2 (Phase 1), specifically for the ICT1 building.

Domestic and international partners met at the ICT1 building for the opening of Da Nang Software Park No. 2.

The No. 2 Software Park consists of three buildings: ICT 1 (8 floors), ICT 2 (8 floors), and ICT (20 floors). The ICT1 building has a total land area of ​​5,720 m2 and a total floor area of ​​39,300 m2. Of this, 21,850 m2 (56%) is the usable area, while 17,450 m2 (44%) is for shared use (not usable).

There are two forms of exploitation: Leasing through property auction with a starting price of VND 226,000/m2/month (excluding value-added tax and related service fees) as stipulated in point c, clause 7, Article 1 of Decree 09/2024/ND-CP. The rental price of the property is the winning bid price.

Lease without auction to strategic partners in the semiconductor and artificial intelligence sectors at a rental price of VND 226,000/m2/month (excluding value-added tax and related service fees) as stipulated in Clause 7, Article 14 of Resolution 136/2024/QH15 dated June 26, 2024, of the National Assembly on the organization of urban government and piloting some specific mechanisms and policies for the development of Da Nang City.

The lease term is 10 years (starting from the date of signing the lease agreement). The rental price will remain unchanged for 2 years from the effective date of the contract. After 2 years, the price will be reviewed and adjusted to reflect market conditions, with the adjustment not exceeding 10%.

Despite being inaugurated in January 2025, the second phase of the Software Park project (phase 1) still lacks the legal basis for the Da Nang City People's Committee to issue a decision assigning it to a management and operation unit. The Da Nang City People's Committee has proposed solutions to avoid wasting public assets and create space for development, meeting the needs of IT and digital technology businesses.

Based on that, on February 20th, the Da Nang City People's Council issued a notice agreeing in principle to the proposal of the City People's Committee to put into early operation the completed information infrastructure assets at Software Park No. 2 (Phase 1) and to organize asset auctions while awaiting the completion of the entire project, acceptance, and handover for use.
