Thailand is gearing up to become a regional hub for AI and Cloud technology. The Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (DE) has announced a successful agreement with Huawei, the leading Chinese technology firm, to invest in establishing an AI and Cloud talent development center in Thailand. The project aims to train 50,000 skilled professionals over the next five years, with an expected revenue generation of up to 60 billion baht for the Thai economy.


At a meeting held in Shanghai, the Ministry of Digital Economy engaged in discussions with several leading Chinese tech companies. The significant deal was sealed with Huawei to set up an AI & Cloud talent development center in Thailand.
