Adapting to
The New Industrial Era
Thailand began with Industry 1.0 when its major economic
driver was in agriculture and has continued to develop itself
to Industry 2.0 and 3.0 respectively. Beyond 3.0 which is
in the age of heavy industry and export, the government
has laid out Thailand’s master plan to go into the fourth
generation called Thailand 4.0. Innovation and technology
are contributing to this development and the Thai-German
Institute (TGI) under the Industrial Ministry is playing an
important role to drive this Thailand 4.0 policy.
