From Local to Global: Viettel’s Blueprint for 5G Technology Mastery and Export

March 1, 2024

BARCELONA, Spain, March 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — At the 2024 Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Spain, with participation from 2,400 global companies, Viettel, the sole representative from Vietnam, showcased numerous self-developed 5G technology achievements.

During the event, Viettel introduced an automatic network system optimizing operational performance, saving energy, and autonomously resolving application issues for both 5G and 4G, which is being comprehensively deployed in Vietnam and 10 countries where Viettel has business investments.

The Viettel Group is not only focused on research and production of equipment but also offers solutions for Private 5G networks. Besides conventional 5G, Private 5G is a network specially designed for an organization or a specific area, not shared with the public network.

Private 5G networks offer benefits in terms of security, high speed, and low latency, suitable for specific enterprise applications, while also improving production and management efficiency.

The MWC 2024 event was where Viettel demonstrated the capabilities of this system by conducting a Standalone 5G (SA) broadcast – the most modern 5G network architecture using a 5G core network – right at the conference. Inside a 40kg box placed directly at the booth, visitors could easily access the network thanks to a complete system including core, access, and 5G radio networks. This step demonstrates Viettel’s mastery of the new generation of mobile networks.

Foreign partners praised Viettel’s 5G system after the MWC 2024 event. The Global System for Mobile Communications (GSMA) highly appreciated Viettel’s early deployment plan for the Standalone 5G (5G SA) network in 2024. “Viettel has been pioneering by signing this memorandum of understanding (MOU). GSMA hopes that both sides will have long-term cooperation, not only with 5G but also with 6G, 7G… with Open Gateway connection,” said Henry Calvert, GSMA’s Director of Networks.

Viettel’s participation in the GSMA Open Gateway, becoming the 47th member of this initiative, also shows the commitment and position of Vietnam’s leading corporation in the global telecommunications community.

Earlier, by the end of 2023, Viettel High Tech, a member of Viettel, successfully transferred the Private 5G system to QuadGen a company in India. Unlocking the world’s second-largest telecommunications market is proof of Viettel’s ability to provide quality telecommunication services, meeting global customer needs.

“In the common technology trend, the need for 5G deployment by international enterprises opens up many potentials. Opportunities not only lie in the telecommunications sector but also open up new customer segments, such as in the Logistics sector for building smart warehouses, or electronic equipment manufacturing plants needing 5G technology to operate the system, speeding up the process,” said Le Ba Tan, Technical Director of Viettel Group, at MWC 2024.

Besides the Private 5G network, at the conference, Viettel also introduced to the international community the 5G Chipset including 5G DFE – Vietnam’s first complex chip capable of performing 1,000 trillion calculations per second, equivalent to the 5G chip of the top 10 semiconductor companies in the world. Viettel engineers have mastered the entire design process, thereby laying the foundation for high-tech Chipset product lines. The other chip, named 5G RFIC, is Vietnam’s first wireless transmission chip.

The 5G network trend is changing the way the world connects and interacts, not only in the technology sector but also expanding to other industries. Viettel, one of Vietnam’s leading corporations, has been part of this revolution early on, starting with the establishment of a research and development team in 2015 and officially deploying a trial 5G network domestically in 2019.

From then on, Vietnam became the sixth country with the capability to produce 5G network equipment, with Viettel being the only enterprise that is both a telecommunications network operator and a researcher and producer of 5G network equipment.

AIE Graduates create visual effects for Academy-nominated film

September 20, 2024

NAWI, a feature film whose visual effects were created by graduates from the Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE), has been officially nominated by Kenya for entry into the 97th Academy Awards in the category of Best International Feature Film. NAWI is a heartfelt story about a young girl’s journey towards empowerment and aims to shed light on a pressing issue that affects countless young women in the Turkana region of Kenya.

CANBERRA, Australia, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — NAWI, a feature film whose visual effects were created by graduates from the Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE), has been officially nominated by Kenya for entry into the 97th Academy Awards in the category of Best International Feature Film. NAWI is a heartfelt story about a young girl’s journey towards empowerment and aims to shed light on a pressing issue that affects countless young women in the Turkana region of Kenya.

“The film has a very important social message to tell so it was rewarding in many ways to be able to contribute to this project. NAWI was a fantastic opportunity for our graduates to put their skills to the test on a full-length feature film,” said Tom Pugh.

AIE graduates and teachers were given the opportunity to work on the film’s visual effects through AIE’s ongoing partnership with Learning Lions, who produced the film with Film Crew & Baobab Pictures. AIE is proud to support Learning Lions non-profit mission to enable young adults in marginalised rural communities of East Africa to become digital creatives by providing game development training and technology.

The visual effects for NAWI were brought to life by AIE teachers and experienced industry professionals, Thomas Magill and Tom Pugh, who were tasked with supervising the visual effects and liaising with the film’s Directors, Apuu Mourine, Kevin Schmutzler, Tobias Schmutzler and Toby Schmutzler. They assembled a team of recent AIE graduates and worked out how to create the effects required to immerse audiences in Nawi’s world.

“Graduates were able to take the skills they had learnt in class and apply them to cinema-quality footage. There was even a bit of nervous excitement working with professional expectations and deadlines,” said Tom Pugh.

Thomas Magill explained that most of the work involved compositing such as fixing blemishes, removing unwanted folds in clothing, changing pages in a book and removing background actors that were in the wrong place.

“We had a river shot where there was only a sandbank, and we had to create an entire island! There were several shots filmed in a dry riverbed which required us to create floodwater. We had to draw upon various disciplines: not just digital compositing but also visual effects creation and fluid simulations,” said Thomas Magill.

Both teachers enthused that the directors were a pleasure to work with and the collaboration was smooth.

Learning Lions and AIE look forward to seeing NAWI progress through two rounds of voting by members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to narrow the list of submitted films down to five nominees for the Best International Feature Film.

They simply share a unique link with patients, allowing for easy access to services, and payments are processed as orders are placed. Partner pharmacies handle medication shipments directly, creating a hassle-free experience for providers.Boosting Patient Retention: The platform includes a VIP Rewards Program, designed to increase patient retention and loyalty. Patients earn points for discounts and exclusive benefits, which encourages ongoing engagement and care continuity.E-commerce and Wellness Integration: Unlike typical affiliate programs, Valhalla Vitality allows providers to retain full control of their patient relationships. Providers can generate revenue through the integrated e-commerce system without worrying about referral fees or kickbacks, enabling them to focus solely on delivering high-quality patient care.

By joining the Valhalla Vitality Network Provider Program, healthcare providers gain access to a scalable model that helps increase profits, introduce new services, and enhance patient satisfaction. The VIP Rewards Program also strengthens the bond between patients and providers, making healthcare more accessible and rewarding for all.
