THE STANDARD ECONOMIC FORUM 2025

A three-day forum that dares to ask the biggest questions in this era of transition — bringing together the sharpest minds from every global frontier to deliver bold, direct answers for Thailand’s future.

AI is taking Thai jobs — will we adapt, or be left behind?
Tourism is down, revenues are shrinking — will neighboring countries overtake us?
The world comes here for treatment — why aren’t we a true medical hub?
Global demand for healthy food is booming — so why is Thailand stuck with low-value crops?
Carbon taxes are here — is Thailand ready for the new global game?
Capital is flowing out — how can we turn the tables in our nation’s financial game?
A geopolitically divided world demands sides — where should Thailand stand to gain the advantage?
Corruption runs deep — can we fix it for good, or just learn to live with it?

This is the platform where leaders from government, business, investment, and real changemakers come together to set the agenda, debate solutions, and chart actionable plans to lead Thailand toward its true Next Frontier.
