Abstract

This study discusses interactions among institutions and various public innovation policies to strengthen Thailand’s economy. Within the national innovation system (NIS) framework, the key actors are firms, government, universities and government research technology organisations (RTOs), private bridging organisations (industrial, trade and professional associations), financial intermediaries and markets. This report provides details of various technology and innovation financing schemes in place to strengthen the NIS, including R&D tax incentives, grants and loans, equity financing and capital market regulations.
