The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated and driven transformation for the manufacturing industry. Manufacturers must handle more adaptations in automation, artificial intelligence, and robotics in the manufacturing process and also explore new opportunities in industries such as medical devices and other future industries. Thailand is moving towards the production of high-value and smart electronics and electrical appliances, leveraging its high competency in modern technologies for E&E manufacturing. In the Post COVID-19, doing business will not be the same with the latest technology in the limelight.

A variety of industrial robotics and automation technology was also featured. A wide range of sheet metal fabrication technology from the world’s leading brands was also displayed; included fiber laser machines, CO2 lasers, press brakes, technology.
Co-located with INTERMACH 2020 was Subcon Thailand 2020 – The most important subcontracting and business matching event in ASEAN. This year it featured 250 industrial part-makers and suppliers.

SUBCON’s Business Matching Program was an overwhelming success.

Local buyers and overseas buyers over hundred companies and 11 countries were featured and business matching resulted in 1,277 matching pairs which generated more than 3.8 Billion THB in business transactions.
INTERMACH and SUBCON Thailand 2020 were a big hit and successfully delivered business opportunity, business linkage and business collaboration between exhibitors, buyers, and entrepreneurs. Top sales leads were made, and lucrative business contacts were established with quality trade visitors and buyers.
