WELCOME TO THE BANGKOK CHAPTER OF THE GLOBAL ASSOCIATION FOR VR AND AR
VRARA’s Bangkok Chapter aims to lead and assist our local ecosystem of companies, developers, content creators, producers, educational institutions, academics and students in collaborating knowledge, enhancing innovation and accelerating growth of XR (Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality) in Thailand.
Bangkok is on the path to take its economy to the next level with its innovation-focused initiative Thailand 4.0 and its upcoming US$45 billion dollar industrial hub Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC). Bangkok’s major corporate players recognise the rise in XR and are adapting their strategies and operations to help build Thailand’s 4.0 future, while also expanding their presence both within Bangkok and abroad.

A special thanks to the Netherlands-Thai Chamber of Commerce and NHL Stenden Thailand for continuing to support the VR/AR community here in Thailand. Here's a look back at our event, showcasing how XR is changing the Tourism & Hospitality industry in Asia!
The XR market in Thailand is still young, but Bangkok is poised and hungry for dynamic technological growth in this area. It was such a pleasure to work with our friends at HubLearn, Panomatics VR and VeeAR.

TESTIMONIALS
“The VR/AR Association has been a great opportunity for me to get in touch with peers from Bangkok, the Asia-Pacific region, and the globe. I am enjoying participating in the Asia Pacific Research in Immersive Technology Community of Practice, led by VR/AR Association Asia Pacific Executive Director Pradeep Khanna and Dr. Nick Tate, and leading an environmental scan of the CoP. I look forward to working with VR/AR Association members and researchers as we pursue the goal of demystifying research in VR AR technologies and use the lessons learned to advance XR from an academic perspective.
The VR/AR Association Bangkok Chapter President and Vice-President, Justin Jobity and Adam Dollner, have been helpful in putting me in touch with industry leaders in VR AR technology in Bangkok, Thailand, and SE Asia. Such connections are essential as my university seeks to expand its use of VR AR in advertising, recruiting, research and development, teaching, and more. The VR/AR Association maintains a strong network of thought leaders and technical experts able to manage a wide range of VR AR needs, from development to VR AR events.
Looking toward the future, I am eager to become more involved with the various committees that the VR/AR Association has to offer. The aerospace, education, and university committees are just some examples of great ways to connect with XR experts working in an area relevant to you. I highly recommend the VR/AR Association to any potential new members. It’s virtually impossible for me to think of any reason not to join (bad pun intended)! We’d love to have you onboard. ”
