Friday’s “Entrepreneurs Speak, Government Listens” forum will bring major Thai business leaders together with Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul and ministers to present proposals for economic revival.
The government says it wants direct private-sector input on concerns and ideas that can help shape joint economic development efforts.
Companies expected include Charoen Pokphand Group, Betagro, Thai Beverage, Gulf Development, Bangchak Corporation, Saha Pathanapibul and Central Group.
Representatives from 10 sectors — including finance, agriculture, automotive, energy, real estate, healthcare, tourism, retail and technology — are due to attend alongside key business associations and SME groups.
Rachada Dhnadirek said the meeting is the first formal government platform for direct dialogue with private-sector representatives, underscoring a broader push to work more closely with business.
