BANGKOK, Thailand, Aug 17, 2026 – Thailand’s Minister of Education, Prasert Chanthararuangthong, led a high-level Ministry of Education (MOE) delegation on an official visit to Dassault Systèmes’ global headquarters, reinforcing a shared commitment to advancing digital education, developing future-ready talent, and addressing Thailand’s evolving skills gap.
The delegation explored Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform, which connects people, data, and applications in a single collaborative environment for innovation, and its Virtual Twin technology. The Virtual Twin uses industrial level artificial intelligence, multi-physics simulation, and real-time data to build working 3D models before going into production.
Introducing these important tools to Thai students early gives them hands-on exposure to technologies used in real production, narrowing the gap between academic knowledge and real-world industry application.
Discussions highlighted a growing collaboration between Thailand and Dassault Systèmes focused on equipping the next generation with skills required to thrive in an increasingly digital and innovation-driven economy. The initiative also supports teachers by leveraging AI to reduce administrative workloads and enhance classroom delivery.
Key areas of collaboration to inspire future generations through student-centred learning experiences include:
- Developing dedicated teacher training programs
- Providing access to industry-leading software solutions
- Establishing industry training centres
- Offering internationally recognised certifications
“By bringing the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and SOLIDWORKS into secondary and vocational classrooms, our goal is to bridge the gap between education and the professional world, equipping Thai youth with skills to lead the country’s digital transformation,” said Nicolas Jeannee, 3DEXPERIENCE Education, Vice-President, Dassault Systèmes.
This aligns with Thailand’s broader education reform agenda and underscores the importance of public-private partnerships in building a resilient, future-ready workforce.
