On August 26, 2003, the Royal Thai Government approved the establishment of the National Innovation Agency (Public Organization) (NIA) to be under the supervision and management of the Ministry of Science and Technology.
NIA’s mission is to support and develop Thailand’s innovation system.
NIA functions as the key engine driving national innovation by co-creation, networking, fostering, and partnering different organizations from various fields such as academic, technology, industry, finance and investment.
NIA relies on academic and financial support mechanisms to drive and support innovation development.
