Thai bioeconomy development plan could be approved by cabinet in early 2018

New policy could attract private sector investment to boost the agri-economy as well as interest in tech companies

In Thailand, the cabinet is waiting to receive the first ever proposal for a bioeconomy development plan that is aimed at attracting private sector investment to boost the agri-economy as well as interest in tech companies. Hopes are that the policy could be approved by the cabinet early in 2018 and follows on work begun in early 2017 across 23 different state agencies, academia and the private sector in five main areas: ethanol, bioplastics, food, bioenergy and biopharmaceuticals.
