On behalf of the Joint Foreign Chambers of Commerce (JFCCT), the Netherlands-Thai Chamber of Commerce (NTCC), and the co-chamber partners cordially invite you to join EEC Business Forum 2024: Accelerating the EEC as a Global Hub for the BCG Economy. Together with the support from Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau (TCEB), the Eastern Economic Corridor Office of Thailand (EECo), and private organizations, the audience will gain knowledge on how the EEC area could provide a better life quality within the BCG concept. A field trip with presentations at PTT LNG in Map Ta Phut area will take place in the morning.

PTT LNG is one of Thailand's leading companies in the practical implementation of low-carbon, green, and circular technologies within the EEC area.
