Asia IoT Business Platform Thailand (14th edition)
IoT Thailand is
held annually in Bangkok. With a focus on local telecommunication
companies and enterprises in key verticals, the event offers Southeast
Asia’s most comprehensive program for solution providers targeting
enterprise adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine-to-Machine
(M2M) technologies in Thailand.
While IoT has grown tremendously over the past few years – being
heralded as the “fourth industrial revolution” that can change the
way businesses and organisations operate, IoT adoption remains
conservative. Concerns over cost effectiveness, interoperability and
security loom over the decision-making process, creating the needs for
businesses to seek thought leadership, use cases, and consultative
strategic planning to better understand how to adopt IoT successfully.
With this in mind, this year’s edition of AIBP will focus on
concrete discussions between IoT solution providers and end users to
address key challenges and pain points in implementing IoT in
businesses.
The second focus of AIBP will be on Small and Medium Enterprises
(SMEs), which currently makes up 98.5% of businesses and account for
some 70% of national employment. By 2021, value of SME GDP will
account for 50% of total GDP. SMEs are encouraged to initiate creative
and innovative business, with the use of technologies and R&D, and the
Office of Small and Medium Enterprises Promotion has plans for
boosting “Smart SMEs”, as part of Thailand 4.0 Initiative.
This is a dynamic industry platform that should not be missed if you
want to understand more about enterprise digital transformation and
IoT in Thailand, understand businesses’ needs and challenges in
adopting IoT, and establish important connections that will benefit
you and your organisation in many ways.
