The&nbsp;actions&nbsp;include: 1)&nbsp;developing&nbsp;guiding principles for establishing a holding company, 2)&nbsp;allowing universities to invest in innovation businesses with their revenues, 3) revising university regulations in order to promote innovation businesses, and 4) encouraging university researchers to take their innovations to market via spinoff\/startup policy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting also reviewed the 2027 Innovation Ecosystem Framework formulated by NXPO. The framework sets the targets for R&amp;D&nbsp;expenditures&nbsp;to reach 2% of GDP and to have additional 1,000 IDEs&nbsp;(Innovation Driven Enterprises)&nbsp;achieving 1 billion THB in sales by 2027. The following mechanisms were proposed to boost the number of IDEs: 1)&nbsp;IDE Accelerators&nbsp;such as regional science parks and a holding company scheme;&nbsp;2) Regional Innovation Economic Corridors&nbsp;such as EEC-A (Eastern Economic Corridor of Aviation),&nbsp;EECi&nbsp;(Eastern Economic Corridor of Innovation),&nbsp;EECd&nbsp;(Digital Park Thailand),&nbsp;EECmd&nbsp;(medical center) and&nbsp;EEC Genomics;&nbsp;3)&nbsp;Strengthening&nbsp;strategic&nbsp;sectors&nbsp;such as EV, wellness and medical, food and agriculture;&nbsp;4)&nbsp;Supporting programs such as&nbsp;Thailand Business Innovation Research&nbsp;(TBIR),&nbsp;Thailand Tech-Transfer Research&nbsp;(TTTR), Innovation Fund and Thai Bayh Dole Act. The committee suggested additional mechanisms to foster the IDE growth such as building collaboration between universities and enterprises both domestically and internationally, establishing financial packages and&nbsp;prioritizing&nbsp;issues.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"461\" height=\"307\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-8.jpeg\" alt=\"A picture containing person, wall, indoor\n\nDescription automatically generated\" class=\"wp-image-6695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-8.jpeg 461w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-8-300x200.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 461px) 100vw, 461px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"460\" height=\"306\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-10.jpeg\" alt=\"A picture containing person, person\n\nDescription automatically generated\" class=\"wp-image-6697\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-10.jpeg 460w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-10-300x200.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"462\" height=\"308\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-12.jpeg\" alt=\"A picture containing person, wall, indoor, older\n\nDescription automatically generated\" class=\"wp-image-6699\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-12.jpeg 462w, https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-12-300x200.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NXPO&nbsp;recently&nbsp;organized a meeting of the&#038;nbsp [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6696,"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-6693","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\/2021\/01\/image-9.jpeg","author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/author\/adminsti\/"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-9.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6693","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\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6693"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6693\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6700,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6693\/revisions\/6700"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6696"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6693"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6693"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nxpo.or.th\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6693"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
