On April 19, 2025, SmartDev was once again honored in the Outstanding Software Export Services category at the Sao Khue Awards Ceremony organized by the Vietnam Software and IT Services Association (VINASA).

SmartDev – Solid Capabilities, Global Services
Among the award recipients, SmartDev stands out as a member of Verysell Group (Switzerland), a company specializing in software development services, digital transformation, and AI for clients worldwide.
With a flexible Agile model, a team with 100% proficient English communication skills, and close collaboration with technology experts in Europe and America, SmartDev delivers international-standard software solutions that optimize both cost and quality.
SmartDev currently has three legal entities in Switzerland, Singapore, and Vietnam, along with over 400 employees in Da Nang and Hanoi. Notably, amid strong digital transformation and stringent security requirements, SmartDev has achieved prestigious international certifications including ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2, clearly demonstrating the company’s commitment to information security and service quality.
Two Recognitions in the Same Category Mark SmartDev’s Superior Technology
With the global ITO market projected to grow from $651 billion (2024) to $850 billion (2030), SmartDev is facing a golden opportunity for expansion. This is especially significant as Vietnam is recording an annual growth rate of 16.38% in this field—an impressive figure compared to the global average. Therefore, consecutive recognitions at Sao Khue not only serve as evidence of service quality but also reflect the company’s strategic vision in capturing the increasingly robust outsourcing wave.
In 2024, SmartDev was honored with two awards for Software Export Services & the fintech product VeryPay. Just one year later, SmartDev has demonstrated a powerful transformation by advancing deeply into the AI field, delivering products and services that are not only highly applicable but also pioneering in digital transformation trends and AI applications.
Particularly, receiving the “Outstanding Software Export Services” award at Sao Khue 2025 for the second consecutive year marks an important milestone for SmartDev’s efforts in global expansion, providing services to clients in demanding markets such as Australia, Germany, and the United States.
In 2024, SmartDev achieved 44% revenue growth, far exceeding the average rate of Vietnam’s ITO industry. In March 2025, the company was also honored to be among the Top 100 Fastest Growth companies selected by Clutch, further demonstrating the company’s outstanding capabilities.

However, the journey to glory has never been easy. Throughout the process of serving clients, SmartDev has established new industry standards with advanced AI technology, helping customers save costs and release products faster. Simultaneously, the company owns excellent core technology products such as VeryPay (Fintech) and VERA (AI), developed by a strong internal specialized team.
Additionally, SmartDev stands out with business stability guaranteed by the Swiss group, a flexible service delivery model (Onshore – Offshore – Hybrid – Nearshore) with two centers in Da Nang and Hanoi, and an international team of English-proficient staff. The European-standard service quality with an 80% client retention rate demonstrates the trust from global partners.
With these competitive advantages, SmartDev has been and continues to be a partner for many organizations and businesses in key sectors such as Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI), retail and e-commerce, healthcare, education, and manufacturing.
Pioneering Transformation with AI: From Strategy to Practice
Furthermore, SmartDev is currently a pioneer in integrating AI into the entire development process. In 2025, with the “AI-Powered Software Development” orientation, the company is applying AI from coding and testing to sprint performance evaluation.
SmartDev has established an AI Adoption Board with the mission of leading AI application throughout the software production chain. Tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and PR Agent are deeply integrated into the development process—from source code creation, automated testing, to sprint performance evaluation—helping to shorten time, minimize errors, and improve productivity without losing human control.
The AI-supported software development model helps reduce development time by 30%, post-release errors by 40%, while increasing programmer productivity by 20%. SmartDev has implemented AI in both major collaboration models: ODC (Offshore Development Center) and project-based development. The integration of AI not only increases speed and quality but also helps clients achieve transparency in investment efficiency evaluation.

Sharing about the award, Ms. Nguyen Ngoc Ha, Marketing Director of SmartDev, said: “We are not just doing AI—we are redefining how software is developed with the power of AI (AI-Powered Software Development) to move toward a future where humans and technology together create outstanding value.”
In the coming period, SmartDev aims to expand into the US and Japanese markets while continuing to invest in internal AI capabilities, modern development processes, and specialized team training.
The Sao Khue 2025 Award is not just recognition but also a milestone in the journey of sustainable development and the aspiration to affirm Vietnam’s position on the world technology map.
