Thailand’s very-own Digital Valley close to completion
THE NATION
While visiting the Thailand Digital Valley in Chonburi, Digital Economy and Society (DES) Minister Chaiwut Thanakamanusorn said investment in technology is an important factor in driving the country’s business sector.
The minister also assigned the Digital Economy Promotion Agency to accelerate the construction of TDV3: Digital Innovation Centre, which will be at the heart of the project. The 40,000-square-metre centre, said to be the largest in the Asean region, will take about two years to be ready.
Once Thailand’s 50-billion-baht Digital Valley is ready, it will create more than 20,000 jobs and help Thai digital start-ups grow and step into the international arena.
The construction is nearly 80 per cent complete and the valley should be ready by December.
