The agreement covers the process for electronic products from identifying requirements and research and design through prototyping, testing, mass production and commercialization. The two sides plan to produce printed circuit boards, assemble surface-mounted components and manufacture electronics, communications and information technology equipment under original equipment manufacturing and original design manufacturing arrangements. The products must meet GTINX’s technical standards.

Research and development cooperation will focus on hardware, Internet of Things devices and smart communications. GTINX will define requirements and technical standards, while Meiko will help design hardware, select technologies and develop production plans. For specific projects, the two sides will also study the establishment of separate, controlled production areas at Meiko’s factories in Vietnam.

Meiko will help draw up a technology transfer roadmap to increase GTINX’s local content and its own manufacturing capabilities. The proposed production areas and technology transfer arrangements remain at the research and planning stage.
