TECH VENTURE MEET UP Thailand

​Fourteen deep-tech startups (12 from Thailand, 2 from overseas) are taking over TPA29 in Bangkok for an afternoon of fast pitches, big questions, and a lot of conversation. Two pitch sessions with seven startups each will cover what they're building, where they are in their business, and the challenges they want help solving. Then comes a panel called "The 144-Year Experiment: Can Today's Startups Become Tomorrow's Institutions?" Inspired by Leave a Nest's philosophy of 144-year ventures, it asks what it takes to build companies that keep creating value for generations, not just through the next funding round.

​If you're on an open innovation team, in R&D, running an accelerator, investing in early-stage ventures, or building a startup yourself, this is a chance to meet the founders face to face. The poster session and open networking are where first hellos turn into talk of joint development, pilots, market access, and partnerships. TECH PLANTER alumni will be back too, sharing how far their research and businesses have come. Come curious, bring your questions (and your business cards), and leave with a few new people to call on Monday.
