The Korean tech company this week opened a new entity in Hanoi, in a bid to further nurture the existing auto parts-focused R&D centre which LG has been running since 2016. 

LG's Hanoi R&D centre focuses on software development and inspection of in-vehicle products such as telematics, and audio, video and navigation devices. 

The company said it will increase the number of developers in Vietnam by more than 30% to 1,000 by next year.
