The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) has initiated “IT Future for Listed Company” special session to update listed companies on information technology (IT) innovations to strengthen their businesses, and to help them keep pace with technological advances with more than 200 participants from listed companies.
SET Head of Information Technology Division Thirapun Sanpakit said that as Thailand aims to become a digital society, technology has become part of daily life and plays a vital role in business today. Consequently, SET has implemented major plans to develop its cutting edge IT infrastructure in order to become a truly digital exchange, ultimately integrating technology into all aspects of SET business operations for all stakeholders.
“SET recognizes a key role that technology has to play in the development of the business sector, especially listed firms which contribute greatly to the nation’s economic growth. As a result, SET has come up with ‘IT Future for Listed Company’ to present new trends in technological development which can prove beneficial in the operations of listed companies and which can increase their competitiveness. SET motivates Thai companies to keep pace with world-class technological advances, in line with the government policies to lead the country into the Digital Economy and Thailand 4.0," Thirapun added.
The event is being held on November 28, 2016 with the ‘Data Analytics’ and ‘ERP on Cloud’ themes dealing with technologies used to collect and analyze data for the development of products and services that meet customer needs and help manage costs. Leading national service providers on Big Data and Cloud Services will also be sharing their experience with IT executives and staff from listed firms from various industry sectors. SET plans to continue to organize this venue to focus on various technologies that benefit every industry, after receiving tremendous positive feedback from interested parties during the first successful event held in July this year.
