NSTDA - สวทช
Our mission culminated at @nstdathailand, Thailand’s national research backbone. We engaged with research leaders across BIOTEC, MTEC, NECTEC and NANOTEC, and explored their IP commercialization pathways, and innovation-as-a-service capabilities.
NTIS shared its ambition to position Malaysia as a regional testbed for deep tech validation, with support from partners like NSTDA. The idea of bilateral or multilateral sandbox test corridors, where innovators from both countries can access regulatory guidance, test facilities, and market insights was positively received.
As NSTDA and NTIS look ahead, this marks the beginning of what could become a robust ASEAN innovation infrastructure, interconnected, scalable, and driven by local excellence.
