Vingroup to give 2,400 ventilators to Russia, Ukraine and Singapore
HANOI, VIETNAM – Media OutReach – July 11, 2020 – On July 10, 2020, VinGroup fulfilled
its obligations to deliver ventilators to Singapore, Russia and Ukraine. This
included invasive ventilators called Vsmart VFS-510 that VinGroup produced
for non-profit purpose to aid COVID-19 treatment in many countries.
Thanks to the countries’ embassies to Vietnam, Vingroup initially gave 500
VFS-510 ventilators to Russia and 300 VFS-510 devices to Ukraine.
Now a further 1,600 Vsmart VFS-410 ventilators as specified in the
memorandum of agreement will be delivered for the second phase by August 30,
2020.
VinGroup also gave 200 VFS-510 ventilators to the Embassy of Singapore in
Vietnam to help Singapore overcome the challenging current situation.
Speaking at the handover ceremony of the first batch of ventilators, Konstantin
Vnukov, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation
in Vietnam, not only acknowledged the outstanding success of VinGroup in
construction, telecommunications, automobile industries, as well as other
sectors in the economy, but also appreciated the company’s engagement in
addressing the social issues and medical difficulties.
He said: “We have all seen the mutual support in the hardest of periods.
The ceremony of awarding ventilators to the Russian Federation today continued
to affirm our fruitful friendship.”
Once the handover has been completed, the countries’ embassies plan to
transfer ventilators to the localities, for the fight against the COVID-19
pandemic.
Vingroup experts began researching the technology needed to produce the
machines and mass production of the ventilators began three months after
the research and manufacturing of the ventilators was announced to fight
against the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
The Vsmart VFS-510 ventilator’s circulation was licensed by the Ministry of
Health of Vietnam, meeting demands of treating severely infected patients,
specially equipped for medical facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. It not
only proved VinGroup’s efforts and dedication, but also highlighted the
company’s potentials and growth capabilities of technology in future.
VinGroup gave the newly manufactured ventilators to Russia, Ukraine and
Singapore, which all have close relations with VinGroup and Vietnam showing Vietnamese
enterprise’s corporate social responsibilities in the region and all over the
world.
Reference information:
Vsmart VFS-510 is a special upgrade of the PB560 ventilator developed by
Medtronic, widely used in Vietnam. VinGroup itself produced or localised 70
percent of the components, including core and complex parts such as blower fan,
circuitry (control PCBA, power circuit, etc.), in addition to making keyboards,
display screens, cases, batteries, and even more.
In light of the stand-alone quality measurement by the state authorities and
the clinical evaluation by the top-tier hospitals, VinGroup’s engineers
calibrated specifications for the cutting -edge line to guarantee that Vsmart
VFS-510 can optimise the international standards.

Microsoft introduces new features in Teams to connect users with friends and family – now available in mobile preview
New features designed for personal life begin to roll out in preview to the Microsoft Teams mobile app today
![]()
SINGAPORE
– Media OutReach – 23 June 2020 – Microsoft today announced new Teams features
that extends beyond work life to personal life. The new features are designed to alleviate the need for disparate
tools and instead, offer one central hub for individuals, groups, and families
to collaborate, stay connected and organized.
Users can expect to connect, collaborate,
and jointly organize their lives across work groups, friends, and family. The
new features start to roll out in preview to the Teams mobile app today and
will be fully rolled out in the coming weeks.
“We are using multiple apps and tools–both online
and offline–such as calendars, email, messaging, photo apps, to-do lists, and
documents to manage it all. Every day more people love what Teams does for
them because it is the hub for teamwork that lets you chat, meet, call, and
collaborate all in one place. And while Teams is great for work, we believe it
can help everyone better manage their responsibilities across work and personal
life. With these new features, we
hope to extend the power of Teams to your personal life whether you’re managing
daily family life or just trying to stay connected and in sync with those who
matter most,” said Rami
El Bayadi, Regional Director, Microsoft Office Asia.
With
the new features, Microsoft hopes to
provide users one app that seamlessly manages work and personal life as well as
staying connected with those who matter most. Microsoft Teams will now provide
the tools for users to manage daily life; share grocery lists, organize across
family calendars, safely store important information like Wi-Fi passwords and
account info, and even see location updates when loved ones arrive home or at
other locations like work or school.
- Stay connected with text chat and
video calling: Microsoft Teams will become the messaging hub
for all personal chats and video and voice calls, with fun features like
sharing GIFs, photos, videos, documents, and even location already integrated.
Users can create groups to chat and call, to stay connected with family and
friends. - Keep everyone on the same page and
pick up where they left off: Users will
be able to stay organized by sharing lists, documents, and calendars all within
the group dashboard.
Microsoft Teams will allow users to easily go
back and see the chats, tasks, pictures, videos, and group calendars shared
within the dashboard,
providing a great way to pick up
conversations or projects where they left off. - Collaborate and share important
documents efficiently and securely:
Microsoft Teams integrates with other Microsoft
365 apps so users can easily share from Word, Excel, and PowerPoint right from
within the Teams app. All documents are also stored on OneDrive and users can
now access these documents across other devices – whether it is for planning a
family budget or preparing kids’ schedules. - Easily share location and information: Location sharing* is now available as part of these new
personal features as well, making it easier for users to share their location
and find their friends.
Microsoft Teams will also come with a Safe, which lets users securely
store and share important information, like passwords, rewards numbers, or
login information. Users can easily share this information directly from the
Teams app with families and friends, all backed by the security of two-factor
authentication and end-to-end encryption.
To get started on the preview, users can simply use
their Microsoft Teams mobile app at work and add in their personal account. Users
will then be able to toggle between their personal and work accounts. New users
can also visit the app store on iOS or Android to download the mobile app and
sign up with a personal Microsoft account, or create a new one with their phone
number. General availability of the new features, as well as
expanding features to the desktop and web versions of Teams, is expected later
this year.
