BANGKOK, Aug. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited, a global leader in power management and smart green solutions, hosted the Delta Future Industry Summit 2026 under the theme "Advancing Thailand's Infrastructure for AI and Electrification Evolution" at Hotel Nikko Bangkok. The summit brought together more than 200 participants, including government leaders, prominent policymakers, industry executives and technology experts, for high-level dialogue on how AI, automation and advanced power technologies are shaping the country's infrastructure and industrial development.

Delta was honored to welcome H.E. Mr. Varawut Silpa-archa, Minister of Industry, who delivered the opening address, "Accelerating Thailand's Competitiveness Through AI and Electrification Evolution." He remarked, "Thailand's successful transition into the era of AI, electrification and intelligent industry cannot be achieved by government alone, nor can it be achieved by the private sector acting in isolation. Industrial transformation demands partnership. Government must create the environment, industry must bring innovation, universities must develop knowledge, entrepreneurs must challenge convention, and our workforce must be empowered with the skills to participate in the future we are creating."

Mr. Victor Cheng, Chief Executive Officer, Delta Electronics (Thailand) PCL, stated in his welcome remarks, "We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Your Excellency Minister of Industry Mr. Varawut Silpa-archa, our distinguished speakers, panelists, and all participants for joining us and sharing valuable insights at this year's summit."

"Thailand is well-positioned to benefit from rapid advances in digital technology and electrified systems, backed by an established manufacturing ecosystem, supportive business policies, and a growing skilled workforce. At the same time, rising demand for computing and electrified systems is placing greater pressure on the country's energy infrastructure and industrial capabilities. Our Delta Future Industry Summit serves as a platform for cross-sector dialogue and collaboration to address shared challenges and strengthen the country's long-term competitiveness." Mr. Cheng added.

The event also featured two special addresses from global industry leaders.

Dr. Ettikan Kandasamy Karuppiah, Technologist and Director for Asia Pacific South at NVIDIA Corporation, spoke on "Powering the Next Era of AI Infrastructure in Thailand." He outlined how the continued growth of AI infrastructure requires more efficient power use, sustainability, and responsible innovation. He further emphasized the importance of closer collaboration across the technology ecosystem to support the country's transition into the next era of AI.

Mr. Anothai Wettayakorn, Managing Director and Technology Leader of IBM Thailand, followed with "Day Zero of the AI Revolution." His address examined the shift toward AI-first enterprises, from task augmentation and workflow optimization to broader business redefinition. He also pointed to the importance of the emerging potential of quantum computing across industries in an AI future.

The second half of the program featured two strategic panel discussions.

The first panel, "Energy Infrastructure Readiness in the Advancement of Data Centers in Thailand," brought together experts from Global Power Synergy PCL, Bangkok Bank PCL and Delta Electronics Southeast Asia and Oceania. The panel examined how rising data center investment is reshaping electricity requirements and increasing the need for coordinated planning among energy providers, financial institutions, technology companies and operators.

The second panel was titled "How Will Industrial and Building Automation Shape Sustainable Manufacturing in Thailand?" It featured experts from Lumentum International (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Ally Logistics Property Co., Ltd., DHL Express International (Thailand) Ltd. and Delta Electronics (Thailand) PCL.
