In her opening remarks, Dr. Siriporn Pittayasophon, Vice President of NXPO, emphasized NXPO\u2019s mission to design policies that harness higher education, science, research, and innovation to free Thailand from the middle-income trap. Central to this mission is the \u201c1,000 x 1,000\u201d target\u2014to cultivate 1,000 innovation-driven enterprises (IDEs) capable of generating at least 1 billion THB in annual revenue. Achieving this vision requires building an innovation ecosystem that enables rapid scaling through strong collaboration among the private sector, government, academia, and international partners.<\/p>\n\n\n

Dr. Siriporn added that the event demonstrates NXPO\u2019s active role in advancing Thailand\u2019s innovation landscape. Collaboration with advanced countries such as Japan will help open new opportunities for Thai startups\u2014ranging from investment and technology access to market expansion. She also highlighted that NXPO has designed comprehensive funding mechanisms to support IDEs across the entire value chain: from upstream talent development through the Program Management Unit for Human Resources & Institutional Development, Research and Innovation (PMU-B) to competitiveness enhancement and commercialization through the Program Management Unit for Competitiveness (PMU-C) and the National Innovation Agency (NIA). Together, these mechanisms ensure coordinated, end-to-end support for startups at every growth stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
