Vietnam has always insisted on promoting IT application and development as an important economic and technical sector to create new modes of socio-economic development. Vietnam has been in the top ten of most attractive countries for software outsourcing in the world. The big markets of Vietnamese software enterprises are now North America and Japan, in which the Japanese market is paying special attention due to the cultural and geographical similarities of the two countries.
