The Biotechnology Center of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMBIOTECH) was founded by the People’s Committee of Ho Chi Minh City at the Decision no. 161/2004/QĐ-UB of July 2nd, 2004. The main headquarter of HCMBiotech has been built in a 23-ha campus located on National Way 1A, 12 kilometers northwestwards from the Municipal center. HCMBiotech is set up based on a new pattern for Vietnam with functions including research, technology transfer, training and production applied in agricultural, medical and environmental fields. HCMBiotech is designed and constructed in accordance with developed countries’ experiences of setting up a large-scale biotechnology center with following objectives: • To do basic and applied researches on agricultural, medical and environmental biotechnology; • To receive, transfer, offer professional advice, and deploy modern technologies on biotechnology for agricultural, medical and environmental bio-products; • To practically train, improve professional skills for researchers and technicians for biotechnological research and production; • To commercialize biotechnological products. Construction project of HCMBiotech will be completed in 5 years, the first phase was started in 2007 and expected to be finished in 2012. When all the construction phases are completed, this center will be a working place for 300-400 researchers, 50 percent of them have Master and Ph.D degrees in Biotechnology.
