Especially, May 18, 2022 is a milestone marking the 5-year establishment of VKIST.

Vietnam - Korea Institute of Science and Technology (VKIST) is a public agency under the Ministry of Science and Technology, which was established under Decree No. 50/2015/ND-CP dated May 18, 2015 of the Prime Minister on the basis of Agreement between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Korea and the Ministry of Planning and Investment of Vietnam signed on September 9, 2013. VKIST Project is Korea's largest grant project for Vietnam to promote the relationship of science and technology cooperation between two countries.

As the first applied research institute in Vietnam benchmarking the model of Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), VKIST is focusing its research capacity on such fields as information technology, biotechnology, electronics, food technology, environment technology, etc. VKIST's research activities will bridge the gap between academic research and the market demand.
