The project's environmental impact assessment (EIA) report, recently published for public consultation, identifies Berjaya International University City Vietnam Joint Stock Company, an affiliate of Vinhomes, as the investor for the Berjaya International University Urban Area project.
This significant project, covering approximately 880 hectares in Xuan Thoi Son commune, northern Ho Chi Minh City, has a total investment of around 59,000 billion Vietnamese dong.
The investor aims to complete all legal procedures by June 2026, with construction slated to commence in July 2026. The entire international university urban area is expected to be operational by early 2035.
Envisioned as a modern university urban area, the project aims to become a key research and training center. It is designed to serve as the core of northern Ho Chi Minh City's educational cluster, thereby helping to alleviate congestion in the city's central area.
The urban area is planned to accommodate a population of 135,000, including approximately 60,000 students. The Berjaya International University Urban Area initially received its investment certificate in 2008, with its investment policy updated on 1/2025.
Vinhomes holds the market's largest land bank, nearly 20,000 hectares, as of early December. The company asserts this extensive land reserve will support its sustainable development for the next three decades. Beyond the Berjaya International University Urban Area, Vinhomes is also launching other major projects this year, 2026, across Ho Chi Minh City and nearby provinces, covering a combined area of approximately 2,220 hectares.
