Speaking on Thaicom’s expansion into geospatial intelligence and Earth observation services, he highlighted growing demand for satellite-based insights in areas such as agriculture, insurance and carbon measurement, alongside continued reliance on satellite broadband and broadcasting. Thaicom is also advancing its satellite fleet through partnerships with global players, including the THAICOM 10 project, which is co-financed by Deutsche Bank, as the company positions itself to play a larger role in Thailand’s emerging space economy.
