Thailand's inaugural Content Market 2026 generated 9.79 billion baht (288 million USD) in negotiated trade value across 1,706 business meetings, with films, animation, BL/GL series, games, and content services leading. China was the largest buyer, followed by Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and the US. The event successfully positioned Thai SMEs and production houses to access global platforms and investors, with AI technology helping smaller producers reduce costs and compete on content quality rather than company size alone. Future editions will expand to three halls.
