Khon Kaen is one of the biggest cities in the north-eastern region, 2nd regional contributor to the national GDP with 1.8 million of population. Khon Kaen is also considered as a center of the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS).

In collaboration of the Franco-Thai Chamber of Commerce (FTCC), the Netherlands-Thai Chamber of Commerce (NTCC) and the Belgium-Luxemburg-Thai Chamber of Commerce (BeLuThai) under the lead of the Joint Foreign Chambers of Commerce (JFCCT), the Khon Kaen Business Forum will be held from 23-24 September 2021 to promote Khon Kaen as a business destination to expatriates in Thailand. Business opportunities in Smart City, Smart Farming, Innovation, Connectivity and Health are yet to be discovered in Khon Kaen, the Gateway to GMS.

With the current COVID-19 situation, we have decided with the stakeholders in Khon Kaen to change the format of the Khon Kaen Business Forum to be online only, from 23-24 September 2021.
