VinSpace is responsible for the research, development, and on-orbit operation of its satellites, with the mission focusing on demonstrating in-house developed technologies and strengthening the company's satellite engineering capabilities. This collaboration represents an important step in VinSpace's long-term vision to become a full-stack aerospace company, developing capabilities across the entire space value chain.

The agreement also highlights VinSpace's commitment to advancing Vietnam's sovereign space capabilities while delivering commercially viable solutions for customers across Vietnam, Southeast Asia, and international markets.
