True Digital Park
The NTIS Benchmarking Mission kicked off at @truedigitalpark, Thailand’s largest startup and innovation hub and a melting pot for Southeast Asia’s digital economy.
We explored their SMART Visa facilitation centre, startup ecosystem, and enterprise engagement model. Our discussion with the TDPK team centered on cross-border collaboration, particularly how regional hubs can support digital startups to scale across ASEAN.
NTIS also shared its plan to expand sandbox facilitation across ASEAN, enabling startups in Thailand and the region to test and validate their innovations in Malaysia. TDPK’s integrated approach to talent, infrastructure, and innovation gives us valuable perspective as we design regional pathways for high-growth innovators.
