flag Thailand launches food tech strategy to boost global innovation and its "Kitchen of the World" status.

flag Thailand's National Innovation Agency has released the "Thailand FoodTech Ecosystem Whitepaper 2025," outlining the country’s push to strengthen its global food innovation role and reinforce its "Kitchen of the World" reputation. flag The report, developed with BioBuddy, highlights Thailand’s advantages—natural resources, skilled labor, and ASEAN location—while noting challenges like low R&D spending (around 1% of GDP), fragmented supply chains, and limited startup funding. flag Rising urban demand and private-sector collaboration are boosting food tech startups focused on plant-based foods, digital logistics, waste reduction, smart delivery, AI in hospitality, personalized nutrition, and sustainable pet food. flag Key players include Advanced Green Farm (Flo), LINE MAN Wongnai, and Dernua. flag The NIA stresses that long-term policy support and cross-sector investment are essential to build resilient, competitive food systems and expand Thailand’s global foodtech influence.
