On the afternoon of August 21, 2025, at the Forbes Vietnam Business Forum, the name CMC once again resonated in the list of the Top 50 Most Valuable Listed Companies on the market. 

This marked the second consecutive year that the Vietnamese technology group was honored, and notably, it remained one of only two tech companies in the Top 50. That moment was not just recognition, but also a commitment to CMC’s resilience and ambition to conquer.

From Vietnamese aspiration to reality

Thirty-two years ago, CMC began as a small IT company with the dream of “putting Vietnam on the world technology map.” Three decades later, that dream has materialized in every step and every strategy: from digital infrastructure and technology solutions to research, education, and international projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Nguyen Trung Chinh - Chairman of CMC Corporation - said: “Being honored by Forbes Vietnam in the Top 50 for two consecutive years is not only recognition of financial achievements but also affirms the market’s confidence in CMC’s long-term strategy. We will not stop at being a domestic leader but aim for a global vision with our AI-X and Go Global strategies.”

Market milestones and investor confidence

In early 2025, CMG stock not only marked the milestone of inclusion in the MSCI Frontier Market Index-opening the door to foreign capital inflows-but also anticipated an even greater recognition: later that same year, Forbes Vietnam once again listed CMC among the Top 50 Best Listed Companies.

The Forbes criteria are not limited to revenue, profit, or ROE/ROC, but also assess corporate governance capacity, industry leadership, and a foundation for sustainable development. Thus, this honor is not merely an award-it is clear acknowledgment of the strength of a Vietnamese technology enterprise taking the lead in the global arena.

A representative of an international investment fund remarked: “The inclusion of CMG in the MSCI Frontier Market is clear proof that CMC has stepped onto the global stage. The combination of a solid technological foundation and the ambition to expand internationally is exactly what gives us confidence.”

Pioneering technology projects for the future

CMC is now entering a pivotal phase with landmark technology infrastructure projects: the CMC Hyperscale Data Center HCM worth over USD 250 million, in partnership with Samsung C&T-the No.1 construction enterprise in South Korea; and the CMC Creative Space Hanoi-a complex designed to nurture research, innovation, and technological creativity in Vietnam.

At the same time, the launch of CMC OpenAI on August 21, 2025, demonstrates that CMC is not only catching up but actively leading the AI era in Vietnam. It is a convergence of Vietnamese intelligence, Vietnamese platforms, and Vietnamese aspiration-driving the nation into the global AI transformation era.

Chairman Nguyen Trung Chinh emphasized: “By 2028, we aim for CMC to become a global digital and AI transformation company, reaching a billion-dollar scale with more than 10,000 employees. This will not only bring value to shareholders and investors but also contribute tangibly to the country in the age of AI.”

From trust to action

Looking at CMC’s journey, one theme stands out: trust and perseverance. The trust of the market as CMG stock has been repeatedly recognized by prestigious international institutions. The trust of partners as strategic infrastructure projects take shape. And above all, CMC’s own trust in its ambition to go global and bring Vietnamese intelligence to the world.

A representative of a long-term strategic partner said: “CMC not only provides technology solutions but also inspires Vietnamese enterprises to think big and go far. That is why we chose CMC as a long-term partner.”

Two consecutive years of being honored by Forbes Vietnam, combined with bold steps on the Go Global journey, stand as clear evidence that CMC (CMG) is not only Vietnam’s leading tech stock but also a strategic investment choice for the future.
