Vingroup and VinFast: Vietnam's EV Brands Shaping a Green and Technological Future
As Vietnam's largest private economic group, Vingroup has laid the foundation for this success through decades of investment across technology, real estate, and healthcare. This diversified strength has empowered VinFast to pursue an ambitious international expansion and deliver electric vehicles that have already entered markets such as North America, Europe, Indonesia, the Philippines, with plans underway for the Middle East. In 2024, Just eight years after its founding, VinFast became the best-selling car brand in Vietnam, a milestone that reflects the country's growing manufacturing capabilities and its progress toward a greener economy.
With the backing of Vingroup, VinFast is not just building electric vehicles; it is demonstrating the competitiveness of Vietnamese manufacturing and clean-tech innovation on a global platform. Their mission is to make smart, zero-emission transportation accessible to everyone, while helping communities and governments achieve their climate goals.
VinFast's rapid rise captures Vietnam's aspirations to lead in green mobility and technological innovation. From its smart manufacturing facilities and advanced battery research to its collaboration with renowned design studios like Pininfarina, the company's approach reflects a bold, future-focused mindset. Its growing portfolio of all-electric SUVs, including the VF 8 and VF 9, combines intelligent connectivity, refined aesthetics, and zero-emission performance.
The synergy between Vingroup's economic leadership and VinFast's technological momentum also resonates strongly in the Middle East, where countries are accelerating green transition agendas. As the UAE and the wider region set ambitious targets for decarbonization and clean mobility, VinFast's arrival underscores a shared commitment to innovation, energy transformation, and sustainable growth.
In uniting a heritage of visionary entrepreneurship with advanced EV technology, Vingroup and VinFast are charting a path forward for Vietnam, and for a new generation of global consumers who expect performance, environmental responsibility, and progress in equal measure.

Egypt to inaugurate Grand Egyptian Museum on 1 November
Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly announced on Wednesday that President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi has approved 1 November as the official date for the complete opening of the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM). Speaking at the start of the weekly Cabinet meeting, held at its headquarters in the New Administrative Capital, Madbouly instructed all relevant ministries and authorities to finalise preparations to ensure the museum and its surrounding area are fully ready. He stressed that the opening must be presented in a manner befitting its cultural and historical significance. The premier said preparations are underway to make the event exceptional, adding another milestone to Egypt's record of landmark national occasions. The inauguration is expected to draw distinguished international guests and feature a series of accompanying cultural events. Located near the Giza Pyramids, the GEM will be the largest archaeological museum in the world, spanning 490,000 square metres with panoramic pyramid views. Designed by Irish firm Heneghan Peng Architects, it will display over 100,000 artefacts from Egypt's ancient history—including the complete Tutankhamun collection, exhibited together for the first time since its discovery in 1922—alongside monumental treasures such as the 3,200-year-old statue of Ramses II. The museum also features advanced conservation laboratories, expansive exhibition halls, educational facilities, and visitor amenities. It is envisioned as a global cultural landmark that will boost Egypt's tourism industry, complement the Giza Plateau, and position the country as a premier hub for archaeology and heritage preservation. During the meeting, Madbouly also reviewed recent presidential activities, including President Al-Sisi's reception of Vietnamese President Luong Cuong on Tuesday. The two leaders agreed to elevate bilateral relations to a comprehensive partnership, with enhanced cooperation in agriculture, manufacturing, trade, and investment, supported by both governments and the private sector. In a separate matter, following the ratification of amendments to the Old Rent Law, Madbouly instructed the concerned ministers to begin immediate implementation of the law's provisions. He affirmed the state's commitment to supporting tenants, providing alternative housing, and personally monitoring the matter on a regular basis.
