14 Deep Tech Startups, One Question: What Will It Take to Build the Next Generation of Long-Lasting Ventures? | TECH VENTURE MEETUP Thailand 2026

12 Thai startups and 2 international startups will take the stage in Bangkok on 13 November 2026, bringing together emerging technologies and established industries to explore new possibilities for collaboration.

Leave a Nest Singapore is pleased to announce the updated programme for TECH VENTURE MEETUP in Thailand 2026, taking place on Friday, 13 November 2026, at the Technology Promotion Association (Thailand-Japan) in Bangkok.

Building on the connections established through previous editions of TECH VENTURE MEETUP and the TECH PLANTER Thailand programme, this year’s Meetup brings together deep-tech startups, established corporations, researchers, investors and innovation ecosystem partners to explore a question that goes beyond developing the next successful startup:

What does it take for today’s emerging ventures to become businesses that society will continue to need 100 years from now?

Thailand is home to companies that have evolved through generations of economic, technological and societal change. At the same time, a new generation of deep-tech startups is developing technologies that could reshape existing industries and create entirely new ones.

What could happen when the experience, industrial capabilities and networks of established businesses meet the knowledge, technologies and ambitions of emerging ventures?

TECH VENTURE MEETUP Thailand 2026 aims to create a starting point for these conversations and turn new connections into opportunities for collaboration.

14 Startups, Two Pitch Sessions, New Possibilities

This year’s Meetup will feature 14 deep-tech startups, comprising 12 from Thailand and 2 from overseas, across two pitching sessions.

Each session will feature seven startups presenting their technologies, business developments and the next challenges they are looking to overcome.

The participating startups represent opportunities for Thai corporations, investors and ecosystem partners to discover emerging technologies and explore new areas of collaboration.

For returning TECH PLANTER alumni, the Meetup also provides an opportunity to share how their research and businesses have progressed since their earlier participation, reconnect with the community and find new partners for their next stage of growth.

Beyond the pitches, participants will be able to meet the founders directly during the poster session and open networking, where initial interest can develop into deeper conversations about technology applications, joint development, market opportunities and potential partnerships.

A pitch may introduce a technology, but a conversation could be the beginning of a new business.

Panel Discussion: The 144-Year Experiment: Can Today’s Startups Become Tomorrow’s Institutions?

What makes a business last?

Is it the technology it develops, the markets it enters, or its ability to remain relevant as society changes?

Inspired by Leave a Nest’s philosophy of building businesses that contribute to society over 144 years, this panel brings together perspectives from established corporations and emerging ventures to examine what it takes to build companies that can continuously evolve.

The 144-Year Experiment: Can Today’s Startups Become Tomorrow’s Institutions?

Exploring how established corporations and emerging ventures can combine generational wisdom, innovation, and purpose to create businesses that continuously evolve, remain relevant, and contribute to society for generations.

Rather than looking at startups and established corporations as separate parts of the business ecosystem, the discussion will explore what they can learn from one another.

How can startups develop the foundations needed to grow beyond their founding teams? How can established corporations continue to innovate without losing the values and strengths that have sustained them? And what new businesses could emerge when both sides work together?

Through this discussion, we hope to inspire participants to look beyond immediate business opportunities and consider the kinds of companies, partnerships and industries they want to create for the next generation.

Panelists: To be announced.

From Discovering Technologies to Creating New Businesses

TECH VENTURE MEETUP is more than an opportunity to hear startup pitches.

For established corporations, it is an opportunity to discover technologies that could strengthen existing businesses, open new markets or address challenges within their industries.

For startups, it is a chance to meet potential partners who possess the manufacturing capabilities, market knowledge, industry experience and networks needed to bring their technologies into wider society.

For researchers, investors and ecosystem organisations, the Meetup provides a place to identify opportunities where different forms of knowledge and resources can be combined to accelerate innovation.

By bringing these communities together, Leave a Nest hopes to create collaborations that continue beyond the event itself.
