Alibaba Group to build $1Billion Vietnam data center to follow local storage law https://lnkd.in/gWbzw9YE Chinese tech group rents server space from state-owned partners in the meantime Alibaba plans to build a data center in Vietnam to keep pace with demand in one of Asia's fastest-growing economies, Tam said. He said he did not yet know the cost and declined to give a timeline for the project, as the details have not been made public. The cost of building a data center can exceed $1 billion. "Vietnam is a very [high] potential market," Tam said in an interview. "There's a lot of space to grow." One reason companies like Alibaba might want to build their own servers, in addition to cost considerations, is to ensure greater security and control over their information.

OECD - OCDE 6-Month FDI Report: Geopolitical Tensions Impacting Investment Flows https://lnkd.in/gb6qMnFv - The 6-monthly roundup of foreign direct investment data is out now. In general, we see continuing downward trends, which could be a reflection of ongoing geopolitical tensions and a deteriorating overall economic climate. Some key findings and trends for FDI in 2023 include: ✔ Global FDI flows dropped by 7%, continuing on a downward trend and failing to reach pre-pandemic levels for the second year in a row. ✔ Downswings were recorded for more than two-thirds of OECD economies and other major FDI recipients, such as the People’s Republic of China, who received record-low FDI flows. ✔ Despite the drop, the United States was the leading FDI recipient worldwide, followed by Brazil and Canada. ✔ OECD equity flows remained below any level recorded since 2005, partially reflecting a slowdown in new investment activity. ✔ Cross-border mergers and acquisitions activity continued on a downward trend, hitting a ten-year record low. ✔ In general, greenfield investment activity stalled. The number of new projects announced dropped by 20% in advanced economies, but increased by 9% in emerging and developing markets. #trade #globaltrade #fdi #investment #economy #economicdevelopment #policy #government #foreigninvestment #asia #asiapacific #asean #investment #development #investmentpromotion #climate #genderequality #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #capacitybuilding #digitalization
