With projects spanning Vietnam and expanding to Congo, India, Australia, the Philippines, and Indonesia, the company is elevating global urban standards rather than merely adopting them. Founded on reclaimed industrial land and riverbanks outside Hanoi, Vinhomes' flagship projects, including Royal City, Times City, and Vinhomes Riverside, set a precedent by incorporating all urban functions within a single, walkable environment, including schools, clinics, parks, transit, and commerce.

Vinhomes' global vision extends to projects in Congo, India, Australia, the Philippines, and Indonesia, as the country recognizes that Asian cities will shape the future of urban life.
