Thai-German Institute

[3] TGI officially started operation in 1995, in a zone north of Bangkok,[4] with the assistance of the German multinational company Festo.

[6][7] TGI embarked on a program to promote and educate Thailand's engineering industries in machine calibration and probing technologies in 2009.

The aim of this effort was to help improve manufacturing processes and they enlisted the cooperation of British engineering company Renishaw to help with this endeavor by signing a Memorandum of understanding (MOU) with them.

[8] In 2014,[9] TGI started working with Thailand's Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISTDA) and Taiwan's National Space Organization (NSPO) co-developed project WATER (Wise Antenna for Transmission Execution and Receiving System) to develop an S-BAND antenna to communicate with Thailand's Thaichote satellite.

[13] It was officially noted in the summary of Thai cabinet resolutions on April 24, 2019 that TGI was part of meetings to determine how technology and innovation could be applied to both agricultural and industrial sectors.
