Mr Wetang says Thailand's transition towards a digital economy has gained momentum.
Thai businesses recorded a medium level of digital maturity for the first time as artificial intelligence (AI) adoption accelerates, according to the Thailand Digital Outlook 2026 survey.Wetang Phuangsap, secretary-general of the National Board of Digital Economy and Society Office, said the study found the average digital maturity level of businesses rose to 2.12 out of 4 from 1.56 in 2025, reflecting significant improvements in data-driven business practices and cybersecurity capabilities.
However, weaknesses remain in digital product and service development as well as R&D, highlighting the need for greater innovation, the office noted.
The survey covered 834 digital entrepreneurs nationwide and showed Thailand's transition towards a digital economy has gained momentum, he said.
The assessment measured seven dimensions: strategy and governance, digital workforce capability, data-driven operations, digital products and services, digital business management, digital technology adoption, and cybersecurity infrastructure.
