The National Innovation Agency (NIA) in Thailand is pushing for Bangkok to become the “food-tech silicon valley.” The agency has invested in food-tech start-ups in the area as a part of its “Space-F” project. 

 

The project encourages an influx of investment for the Thai food sector in light of the global food security crisis – which has been exacerbated by multiple factors of climate change, inflation and the ongoing war in Ukraine. 

 

NIA is proposing the use of “deep tech” as the primary way to get Bangkok on the map as a food-tech capital. 

 

The project has been running for about three years, with a focus on funding start-ups, while providing support and mentorship. They do so for local and overseas start-ups, moving them to build businesses in Bangkok.
