IDEs are companies employing technology and innovation in their product and process development or create new business opportunities with innovation. They are growth-mindset firms with 20% or more revenue growth for at least 3 consecutive years. Thailand is pushing to have more IDEs in its economic system as they are the source of employment and income.<\/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\/2023\/06\/image-44.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17065 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-44.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-44-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-44-768x512.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>\u201cGenerally, IDEs are mainly startup companies that have high growth and are innovation-based. However, in Thailand, the scope of IDEs can be extended to include some SMEs that have potential to have higher growth rate than the industry\u2019s average,\u201d said Ms. Sirinya.<\/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\/2023\/06\/image-45.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17066 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-45.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-45-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-45-768x512.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>Studies conducted by NXPO revealed that there are more than 600 SMEs that fit this criterion, 200 of which has 20% growth potential, and the government can play a key role to transform this group of SMEs to IDEs. NXPO in collaboration with the Program Management Unit for Competitiveness (PMUC) has established an IDEs program. The program provides grants to intermediaries who will help companies identify factors to unleash their growth and work with companies to implement measures that will encourage growth such as engaging in research and innovation and connecting with research institutes.<\/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\/2023\/06\/image-46.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17067 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-46.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-46-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-46-768x512.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>\u201cTo achieve the goal of IDEs program, entrepreneurs must have growth mindset, willingness to take risk and trust in the power of public-private partnership. At the same time, the government needs to take initiative and provide support,\u201d Ms. Sirinya concluded.<\/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\/2023\/06\/image-47.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17068 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-47.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-47-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-47-768x512.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<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\/2023\/06\/image-48.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17069 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-48.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-48-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-48-768x512.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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ms. Sirinya Lim, NXPO Senior Director of Innovation Eco [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":18214,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17062","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/12-5.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"\u0e23\u0e1e\u0e35\u0e1e\u0e31\u0e12\u0e19\u0e4c \u0e17\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e2a\u0e21\u0e1a\u0e31\u0e15\u0e34","author_link":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/author\/rapeepat\/"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/12-5.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17062","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17062"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17062\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17070,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17062\/revisions\/17070"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18214"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17062"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17062"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17062"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
