• advanced astrophysical research,

• development of secure quantum communication infrastructure,

• commercialization of quantum technology for the digital economy.

Led by a prestigious team of international experts and operating under the legal patronage of the province and the country, IAS is committed to building a sustainable intellectual ecosystem in the Central region and in Vietnam. Beyond seeking new cosmic discoveries at the New Mountain Observatory, we strive to position Vietnam as a vital link in the global quantum technology value chain, elevating the nation’s scientific standing on the international stage.
