During the discussion on the OECD Agenda for Transformative Science, Technology, and Innovation Policies, Dr. Surachai expressed appreciation to the CSTP secretariat team under the Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation (DSTI) for their active collaboration in advancing this agenda in Thailand. The project which supports Thailand\u2019s strategy for carbon neutrality and transitions is being implemented as part of the Thailand\u2013OECD Country Programme Phase II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Surachai also outlined Thailand\u2019s vision and initiatives in synthetic biology, including the establishment of the Thailand Synthetic Biology Consortium and the development of an eight-year roadmap (2022\u20132030) aimed at promoting synthetic biology in Thailand and the region. These initiatives demonstrate Thailand\u2019s dedication to cultivating a robust synthetic biology ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the contribution of strategic intelligence in the 2025\u20132026 CSTP workplan and budget, Ms. Vipaporn highlighted Thailand\u2019s foresight efforts. The country is the host of the APEC Center for Technology Foresight (APEC CTF), administered by NXPO.  The APEC CTF provides consultation and capacity building in strategic foresight for both public and private sectors. The center has integrated various foresight tools in strategic planning for various national and APEC initiatives. NXPO also actively engages in the OECD Government Foresight Community (GFC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
