Vietnam's VinSpace, part of the Vingroup family, is sending its satellites into space in 2027, with a little help from SpaceX.
Its satellites will hitch a ride on a SpaceX Transporter mission, sharing the launch with other customers.
This move is expected to support in-orbit technology testing, satellite capability development, international collaboration, and future commercial applications.

With this launch, VinSpace wants to test new tech in orbit, speed up their satellite know-how, and build connections worldwide.
They're working toward mastering everything from designing and building satellites to managing launches and providing data services.
