“Thailand has announced a national roadmap to transform its semiconductor sector into a regional hub, targeting over 2.5 trillion baht (US$79.5 billion) in investment over 25 years.”
“It sets phased milestones for 2030, 2040, and 2050, aiming to move from basic assembly and testing to higher-value activities such as chip design and upstream wafer fabrication.”
“The strategy includes financial incentives, training 230,000 engineers, upgrading R&D centers, building specialized infrastructure, and streamlining regulations.”
“In the near term, Thailand will strengthen assembly and design, with a long-term goal of expanding into wafer fabrication and reducing reliance on foreign technology.”
