Recognizing the important role of the University of Science and Technology - UD in providing human resources, applied research, and smart city development for Da Nang City, the research labs operated by faculty of FAST Faculty have concluded cooperates with the DNIIT International Institute of Technology and other units of the University of Science and Technology - UD to participate in policy consultation, development of science and technology programs, and implementation of scientific research projects with the Department of Information and Communication, the Department of Science and Technology, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment and other departments and agencies to jointly create momentum for Da Nang to build an urban government with a focus on convenience, connecting businesses, bringing many conveniences for the people.

In order to arouse students' passion for science and technology and apply digital technology in construction and development of Da Nang City, Lab SmU2SmC has cooperated with DNIIT Institute and Department of Information and Communication - Da Nang City. Nang organized the training course "Artificial Intelligence in Smart City Development" attracting more than 200 participants from Da Nang and the provinces and cities in the Central region https://sites.google.com/view/ai-smartcity-course/home. Da Nang city sets a goal by 2025 to smarten applications; By 2030, to intelligentize community applications. In addition, Resolution No. 43-NQ/TW dated January 24, 2019 of the Politburo on construction and development of Da Nang city to 2030, with a vision to 2045 identifies, by 2030, Da Nang complete the construction of a smart city synchronously connected with smart urban networks in the country and in the ASEAN region.

In this year 2020, FAST Faculty officially announced the scientific research website platform FAST Innovation Lab https://sites.google.com/view/fast-innovation-lab/home with useful resources for cooperation Scientific research between related parties, including:
