The ASEAN Sustainable Technology Awards is an annual award presented by the ASEAN Innovative Business Platform (AIBP) to recognize organizations across Southeast Asia that have contributed to sustainable development. The awards highlight the impact of these businesses and organizations through the application of technology and digital to environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards.

Surpassing many big names across Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, Vingroup impressed the Award Council with its project “Creating a Green Future”.
The Group’s strategy is consistent with a set of criteria covering all three aspects: environment, society and governance. With a higher score than other candidates, Vingroup affirms its position as the largest private corporation in Vietnam in shaping a greener, smarter and more sustainable future for everyone.
Leveraging the capabilities of one of the region's leading multi-industry corporations, Vingroup is committed to promoting digital initiatives that prioritize sustainability. In particular, advanced technologies such as IT, IoT, robotics, virtual reality and blockchain have been effectively applied to ensure ESG criteria cover all of the corporation's business activities, from technology - industry, trade - services to society.
A prominent green initiative of Vingroup is the complete conversion of VinFast’s production and business operations to smart electric vehicles. This groundbreaking move not only contributes to reducing carbon emissions, but also promotes a comprehensive sustainable mobility ecosystem. In addition, VinFast has created thousands of jobs, contributing to boosting the local economy.
In parallel, Vingroup deploys smart city solutions that utilize IoT sensors and data analysis, with the goal of optimizing energy consumption, reducing waste, improving traffic efficiency and creating a sustainable urban environment.
In addition to infrastructure, the Group also applies advanced technology to enhance education, healthcare and other services.
“The AIBP Sustainable Technology Awards honor organizations that have made significant contributions to integrating Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) principles into their business operations through digital innovation,” said Irza Suprapto , AIBP Executive Director and CEO Industry Platform.
The pioneering efforts of enterprises like Vingroup are making a positive impact on the world.
