PIP will be run on a digital open platform where any individual can propose ideas for a new policy. The proposals will be reviewed by the expert team and sound ideas will be further explored and developed into a policy. THIPA is a platform for accelerating the policy-making process. Its key function is to turn sound ideas into actionable policies by working with various agencies including the National Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation Policy Council (Policy Council).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-50.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12616 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-50.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-50-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/image-50-768x512.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the formation and operation of Frontline Think Tank, NXPO has been developing the next generation of STI policy specialists, in collaboration with King Mongkut\u2019s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT) through Science Technology and Innovation Policy Design Training Program (STIP).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Frontline Think Tank will focus its work on freeing Thailand from the middle-income trap and transitioning the country into an innovation-driven economy.
