BOI and SET Join Forces to Attract High-Tech Companies to Thai Stock Market
They aim to encourage BOI-backed technology firms to list in Thailand while supporting existing firms in innovation and sustainable expansion.
The Board of Investment (BOI) and the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) have agreed to deepen collaboration to support the country's shift toward a “new economy” led by technology, innovation and sustainability.
At a meeting on August fifteenth, the BOI's secretary-general and the SET’s president discussed two main strategies: first, to encourage multinational firms operating in Thailand with BOI investment incentives—particularly in advanced technologies—to list on the Thai stock market; second, to assist existing listed companies in investing in value-added activities, improving production efficiency and following sustainable growth strategies.
The agencies will begin with pilot programmes in three high-technology sectors that have experienced strong foreign investment in recent years: smart electronics, electric vehicles and digital industries.
Thailand already counts successful examples of such investments on its stock exchange, including listings by electronics manufacturers such as Delta Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited and Cal-Comp Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited.
This partnership builds on broader efforts to expand capital markets participation among high-tech firms and to support economic transformation toward a digital, innovative and sustainable future.
