Hugo Shong, senior vice president of IDG and president and CEO of IDG Asia, and Deputy Minister of Science and Technology Tran Quoc Thang signed the deal at the MIT campus in Cambridge on June 25.
Prime Minister Phan Van Khai witnessed the signing while he was in Massachusetts as the last stop of his historic visit to the United States from June 19-25.
IDG said in a statement that the deal was designed to help build high-tech research and development capacity, promote the development of high-tech industries, and encourage technology innovation and commercialization of technology products in Vietnam.
The world's leading global technology media, research and event management company also agrees to provide advice and support for the ministry as it plans construction and operation of a hi-tech conference and exposition centre in the Hoa Lac Hi-Tech Park.
Both organizations will study the possibility of signing a long-term contract where IDG will rent the centre on an annual basis to help construct an exhibition hall.
Also on June 25, Shong of IDG signed an MOU on co-operation with Vu Tien Loc, chairman of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI).
