It is known that last year was the first year that FPT reached the milestone of 1 billion USD from foreign markets. Last year, FPT's customer profile had a customer with a revenue of over 200 million USD for the first time. This customer is based in the US, the only company in the world that provides a complete set of solutions for car distributors such as inventory, marketing, sales, after-sales, and operations. In the coming time, the company will implement a balanced strategy, developing in parallel between markets, including the US, Japan, and APAC, each market 30-35%, ensuring growth of over 25%. At the same time, shifting customers, specifically since 2018 with a "whale hunting strategy" focusing only on customers with revenue of millions of USD, and currently 80% of customers bring in revenue of millions of USD for FPT Software. “After 24 years of globalization, FPT reached 1 billion USD in IT service revenue from foreign markets in 2023, and Infosys also achieved the same feat in a similar period of time. Therefore, I believe that FPT will reach the next milestone, 2 billion USD in IT services from foreign markets much faster, with a lot of determination, courage and continuous efforts. FPT is and will contribute significantly to the future growth of Vietnam,” Mr. Narayana Murthy emphasized. From Infosys’s own practical experience, Infosys Founder Narayana Murthy believes that to be successful, along with choosing high-demand fields, to be successful, businesses need to ensure three important factors: Sales, Financial Control and Human Resources. “If we cannot sell products, the company will not have revenue, and without revenue, the company cannot operate. Once we have revenue, we must ensure that all costs are controlled. Try to spend less than the company has. And another important thing is to ensure the operation of all departments in the company, we need to have a good staff." According to Indian IT legend Narayana Murthy, the most important thing for the company is not to create profit but to create jobs. He believes that when creating more jobs, sales and profits will come naturally, because that is the root of business, while sales and profits are just the consequences. Sharing the same view with Infosys Founder, Mr. Truong Gia Binh, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said that FPT is also doing the same, FPT is aiming to create more jobs to change the lives of young people and towards the milestone of 1 million employees by 2035.

However, instead of money, he considered respect more important than anything else. This was the guiding principle throughout the company's establishment and development. Only 6 years after its establishment, Infosys opened its first branch in Boston, USA and quickly became a public company in 1993. In 1999, the company achieved a revenue of 100 million USD, and had its shares listed on the NASDAQ exchange in the United States. Not stopping there, they continued to grow rapidly, opening many branches in other countries and reaching the revenue milestone of 1 billion USD in 2004 and 10 billion USD in 2016.

In August 2021, in the face of the boom in technology stocks, Infosys' market value reached the 100 billion USD mark for the first time and became the fourth Indian company to reach this milestone.
