Thailand's Department of Intellectual Property and the National Science Technology and Innovation Policy Office (NSTDA) are jointly launching "IP x Venture Rise Thailand 2026" (27-29 August 2026) to bridge the gap between lab research and commercial market. The event will showcase 250+ research projects across five tech clusters (HealthTech, AgriTech, AI, FoodTech, CleanTech) and facilitate business matching between researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, and technology owners. The collaboration aims to commercialize Thai innovation, strengthen competitiveness, and boost economic value through structured IP protection and capital linkage—addressing a systemic bottleneck in Thailand's innovation-to-revenue pipeline.
