Queen Sirikit National Convention Center,
Dr. Supamas Danwittayakul, representing the Eco and Functional Ceramics Research Team (EFCT) and the Ceramics and Construction Materials Research Group (CCM) at the National Metal and Materials Technology Center (MTEC), NSTDA, took the stage at the “Investment Pitching” session during Thailand Tech Show 2025 (TTS 2025). Held as part of the “AorVor Fair 2025”, the event serves as a dynamic platform connecting industry leaders, investors, and the public with cutting-edge research, technologies, and innovations from academic and research institutions. Dr. Supamas presented “Synthetic Gypsum Innovation,” a promising solution aimed at reducing air pollution and promoting a healthier, more sustainable future.
Prof. Dr. Sukit Limpijumnong, President of the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), delivered a keynote lecture titled “10 Technologies to Watch 2025” at Thailand Tech Show 2025. The event, organized by NSTDA as part of the AorVor Fair 2025 under the theme “Creators of Tomorrow,” served as a premier platform for showcasing cutting-edge technologies and innovations.
Prof. Dr. Sukit Limpijumnong, President of NSTDA, officially inaugurated Thailand Tech Show 2025 (TTS 2025). The event featured dynamic main stage activities and a collaborative exhibition in Zone D: Valley of Growth, where NSTDA and its partners showcased a wide array of technologies ready for commercialization and cross-industry transfer.
This year’s Investment Pitching at Thailand’s Tech Show 2025 spotlighted 10 exceptional research projects—eight from NSTDA and two from its partner organizations. The highlight of the event was the announcement of the “Most Investment-Worthy Project of 2025,” selected by investors and attendees. The award was presented to “SolaRE Innovative Green Solar Cells,” a pioneering R&D initiative led by Dr. Amornrat Limmanee and the Solar Cell Technology Research Team at the National Energy Technology Center (ENTEC-NSTDA).
“SolaRE Innovative Green Solar Cells” introduces a new solar panel design that enables easy disassembly of core components at the end of its lifecycle using only basic tools—eliminating the need for thermal or chemical processes. This approach allows for the recovery and reuse of approximately 85–95% of the panel’s weight, streamlining material recycling. SolaRE panels deliver energy efficiency comparable to conventional models. A 15-watt SolaRE panel has successfully powered LED lamp batteries, performing on par with standard pre-assembled panels found in lighting kits. Moreover, the panels have undergone continuous real-world testing for over two years, demonstrating their durability and practical viability.
The Best Presentation award was presented to “Pathumma Connect,” an innovative research and development project led by Dr. Sarawoot Kongyoung of the Sustainable Manufacturing Innovation Group at EECi-NSTDA, in collaboration with the Artificial Intelligence Research Group at NECTEC-NSTDA. Designed to transform organizational meeting practices, “Pathumma Connect” is a Meeting Intelligence Platform built on the concept “WHERE VOICE CAN BECOME ACTIONS.” It integrates three core technologies: Partii Note, a Thai-language AI-powered speech-to-text transcription tool; DocChat, an intelligent meeting chat and tracking system; and DocGen, an automated document generation tool based on meeting outcomes. A key strength of Pathumma Connect lies in its foundation as a Private AI Technology tailored specifically for Thailand, with a focus on a deep understanding of the Thai language, data, and context, while ensuring robust organizational data security. The platform is currently undergoing active research and development.
