Job Opportunities / Market Demand / Market Trends

In Thailand, although Thai-made nanotechnology products are not yet widely available, it is predicted that soon there will be nanoproducts from Thailand on the market, potentially generating revenue for the country amounting to 1% of the national GDP, or approximately 120 billion baht (National Nanotechnology Center, 2006). Currently, research in various fields of nanotechnology is in the experimental phase at leading universities and the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), covering areas such as nanoelectronics, nanomaterials, and biotechnological nanotechnology. Therefore, if the predictions come true, it will encourage businesses and related agencies to recognize the importance of the nanotechnology industry, and professionals in this field will be in high demand.
