Smart farming technologies such as smart system to control water,&nbsp;fertilizer&nbsp;and pesticide&nbsp;inputs&nbsp;can increase resource efficiency and reduce production cost. Digital&nbsp;platform&nbsp;facilitates market expansion through online channel.&nbsp;Examples of success stories can be found in the \u201c7 Innovation Award\u201d and \u201cPADTHAI:&nbsp;Program for Acceleration and Development for Thai food SMEs\u201d \u2013 two of many programs that promote technology and innovation exploitation in SMEs.&nbsp;Dr.&nbsp;Kitipong&nbsp;stressed that it is imperative to expose children to business and design thinking to&nbsp;start&nbsp;building their&nbsp;entrepreneurial&nbsp;capacity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He ended his talk by underscoring the increasing demand for STEM workforce and great diversity of jobs available in the future industry, especially food for the future and modern transport.
