On June 27, 2026, Mr. Natthapatt Tanboon-ek, Group Chief Financial Officer of WHA Corporation Public Company Limited (WHA Group), delivered a special keynote address titled "The Connectivity Power: Adjusting Business Strategies Through the 2026 Global Economic Storm" at the THAILAND Investment Forum 2026 – THE RESILIENCE OF WEALTH. Organized by Krungthep Turakij at the Stock Exchange of Thailand, the forum served as a platform for sharing critical insights on global economic directions, industrial transformation, and Thailand’s opportunities amid a rapidly changing global landscape.

Mr. Natthapatt stated that the world is entering the "Age of Competition and Uncertainty," driven by four powerful megatrends: shifts in the World Order, Climate Change & Sustainability, Demographic Shifts, and the transition into a Human-Machine Hybrid era—where technology, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and robotics play central roles in driving the global economy.

To stay competitive, Thailand must urgently adapt by investing in future-ready infrastructure. This includes Green Infrastructure—encompassing clean energy, sustainable resource management, and carbon reduction—as well as Digital Infrastructure to support the new economy. Simultaneously, the nation must focus on workforce upskilling, creating "New Skills," and pushing Thailand into the Global Value Chain of high-value industries such as Data Centers, Semiconductors, AI, Green Energy, and Advanced Manufacturing.

WHA Group continues to drive its business under a sustainable growth strategy, aiming to reinforce its leadership both in Thailand and across the region. By embedding technology, innovation, and sustainability at its core, the company is capturing opportunities from global megatrends. WHA Group is actively developing smart infrastructure that spans Future Logistics, Smart Eco Industrial Estates, and comprehensive green logistics solutions under the Mobilix brand (Built-to-Suit Green Mobility Ecosystem), alongside advanced utilities, power solutions, and digital platforms to seamlessly fulfill the needs of modern global investors.

Furthermore, WHA Group is dedicated to building a business ecosystem that integrates investment, technology, energy, and sustainability to support the rise of next-generation industries like Data Centers, AI, Semiconductors, and Future Mobility. By upgrading its properties to Smart Eco Industrial Estates and expanding regional investment opportunities, WHA Group aims to propel Thailand toward a high-value economy over the long term.

WHA firmly believes that uniting the strengths of robust infrastructure, advanced technology, and sustainability will serve as a vital force in strengthening national competitiveness, driving new investments, and steering the Thai economy forward under its ultimate commitment: "WHA: SHAPE THE FUTURE FOR THAILAND."
