In her opening remarks, Ms. Sunanta expressed Thailand’s pride in co-hosting gamescom asia and Thailand Game Show for the first time — a milestone that highlights the nation’s growing role in the global digital content industry. She thanked all partners for their collaboration in making this event a grand success and reaffirmed the Thai government’s commitment to supporting the gaming and digital content sectors as key drivers of the creative economy. She emphasized that building strong international networks will be crucial to unlocking Thai talent and innovation on the world stage.
