The National Science and Technology Fair 2025 (NST Fair 2025) and Aor Wor Fair 2025 wrapped up successfully, living up to their reputation as Thailand’s biggest science event of the year. Over 97 organizations, both local and international, came together to showcase a vast range of knowledge and innovation. Across 9 full days, the fair delivered an immersive experience that highlighted the vital role of science, technology, and innovation in driving Thailand’s economy and society forward. And see you in 2026!
Ms. Sudawan Wangsuphakijkosol, Minister of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), officially closed NST Fair 2025 and MHESI Fair 2025, held from August 9–17 at Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. She emphasized that the event successfully promoted the use of research, knowledge, and innovation to support Thailand’s sustainable economic development through interdisciplinary collaboration.
“This fair wasn’t just about exhibitions. It inspired creativity, sparked interest in science and innovation, and showed how knowledge can drive real change. The strong public turnout proves that science matters to Thai society. And also reflects MHESI’s commitment to its core policy: “Empowering Minds, Creating Opportunities, Building Thailand’s Future.”
“Over nine days, we saw Thailand’s potential to develop people and interdisciplinary knowledge to meet future challenges. This success is the result of collaboration across sectors, and we’ll keep pushing forward toward sustainable progress.”
Mr. Suwarong Wongsiri, Acting Director of the National Science Museum (NSM), said this was the first time NST Fair and Aor Wor Fair were held together, and it was a powerful collaboration that elevated science learning across Thai society. The event welcomed visitors of all ages over nine days, creating a nationwide impact.
“The fair inspired young people and sparked interest in science and technology. That’s the foundation for building Thailand’s future scientific workforce. When youth engage with new innovations, they begin to see how knowledge can be applied creatively to drive sustainable economic growth.”
The four main exhibitions at NST Fair 2025 are Quantum Quest, Brain: Inside Out, Mystery of Svalbard, and Little Inventor drew large crowds at every station. Visitors also actively participated in science learning activities and hands-on lab experiments designed to train scientific thinking. The fair featured youth science project showcases, highlighting the creativity and potential of Thai students in science and innovation.
Another highlight was the Defense Science and Technology Exhibition by the Ministry of Defense, where children and youth explored military innovations and research that support national security.
