TPCA Show 2024 Highlights Taiwan-Thailand Industry-University Collaboration
October 22, 2024 | TPCAEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
With growing investments in Thailand's PCB industry, the 2024 TPCA Show will feature a dynamic "Thailand Theme Zone" to promote collaboration between Taiwanese companies and Thai students. The focus will be on tapping into local market opportunities and nurturing scientific and technological talent, with the ultimate goal of fostering bilateral industry exchanges and cooperation between Taiwan and Thailand.
The TPCA has organized a series of four major industry-university activities under this theme: guided tours, networking events, industry-academia matchmaking, and information sharing. Experts from several leading Thai universities will be present to showcase their technical capabilities, offering attendees a deep dive into Thailand’s academic landscape and exploring potential collaboration opportunities.
Six academic institutions from Thailand are participating in the event, including the National Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation Policy Office (NXPO), King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), Prince of Songkla University (PSU), Suranaree University of Technology (SUT), Khon Kaen University (KKU), and Chiang Mai University (CMU). These universities, along with nearly 50 faculty members and students, will engage in a variety of activities during their visit.
The "Guided Tours" on October 22 will take these academic institutions to Xunde Machinery, a high-tech enterprise, and Longhua University of Science and Technology. On the morning of October 24, there will be booth tours with five exhibitors, followed by an afternoon tour for nearly 40 Thai students currently studying in Taiwan, visiting four additional exhibitor booths.
In the "Exchange and Networking" segment, an international luncheon will be held on October 23. TPCA will also host an MOU signing ceremony to formalize Taiwan-Thailand PCB Industry-Academia Cooperation with NXPO, KMUTT, PSU, and SUT. The same day will include the opening ceremony and welcome dinner, providing further opportunities for exhibitors, visitors, and academic participants to connect.
For the "Industry-Academia Matchmaking" activity, a dedicated Thailand-themed zone in Hall L will facilitate employment matchmaking for Thai students and companies. On October 23, professors from the six participating academic institutions will be available for in-depth discussions with exhibitors and human resources teams.
The "Information Sharing" sessions will include presentations on TPCA’s Thailand science and technology talent program, which covers topics like training, employment opportunities, and retention incentives. Starting at 3:00 p.m. on October 23, representatives from each of the six Thai academic institutions will introduce their universities in the Thailand Theme Zone.
These events are designed to strengthen the interactive platform for Taiwan-Thailand industry-university cooperation, drive innovation in the circuit board industry, and support the retention of talent through TPCA’s training programs. The collaboration showcases the shared commitment of Taiwan and Thailand to cultivate technological talent and drive mutual growth in the PCB industry through industry-university partnerships.
