Biography
I am a business leader, strategist and technologist with experience spanning 30 years in industry, government and academia. Following completion of my PhD in laser-generated plasmas, I worked at the Rutherford Appleton Lab in a variety of areas including x-ray lasers and inertial confinement fusion, working with international labs such as the Naval Research Lab, the Ecole Polytechnique and others. I subsequently moved to industry, joining Logica to lead a group specialising in signal and image processing, including early AI systems, progressing to Operations Director of the Space & Defence Division before joining space consultancy Esys, subsequently working as MD of QinetiQ’s Space Division. Focusing on security technologies, I joined Charteris, then DS&S, both providing strategic advice to government in the fields of innovation and cyber security. Seconded to the Office of Cyber Security and Information Assurance in the Cabinet Office, I authored the first UK cyber export strategy and contributed to new export controls for cyber. I then joined CGI as Vice President of a new UK cyber business and after several successful years, joined Roke Manor Research as their Innovation Director. Coming full circle back to academia, I have now taken on the role of Director of Innovation and Partnerships development for the new Surrey Institute of People-Centred Artificial Intelligence at the University of Surrey. I also act as advisor to TechUK's Management, Finance and Performance Board and NatWest Group’s Technology Advisory Board.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in the development of society and the economy, with its impact reaching beyond traditional business sectors into the fabric of public life. As our world becomes increasingly digital, the realm of AI continues to expand and deepen, presenting both unprecedented opportunities and challenges. Across the globe, numerous instances have illustrated the substantial value that can be harnessed from AI when it is effectively deployed. Nonetheless, to fully leverage these benefits while minimising associated risks, nations must establish comprehensive frameworks for responsible AI adoption that encompass AI standards, thereby guiding public policy and stimulating economic progress. This project report presents a comprehensive analysis of the current state and future potential of AI adoption in Thailand, offering strategic insights and recommendations to stakeholders aimed at enhancing Thailand's AI landscape. The report is structured around key thematic areas including regulation and standardisation, data sharing/management practices, and human capacity building, each crucial for the holistic growth of Thailand's AI ecosystem. With its responsibility over digital transactions, the Electronic Transactions Development Agency (ETDA) is well-positioned to play a pivotal role in this endeavour. By spearheading the development of AI infrastructure and standards, promoting AI literacy among the populace, and establishing robust governance and regulation processes, ETDA can help Thailand navigate the complexities of AI integration. By emphasising the refinement of AI regulations, establishing robust industry standards, enhancing data management practices, upgrading educational and research development (R&D) infrastructure, fostering AI literacy, and actively engaging in the reskilling and upskilling of the Thai workforce, alongside nurturing local and international collaborations, Thailand is poised to emerge as a frontrunner in AI innovation and application. Such a comprehensive approach to developing a holistic AI adoption framework will not only propel Thailand's economic and technological progress but also ensure that the adoption of AI is ethical, sustainable, and in harmony with the nation's overarching development objectives, thereby unlocking substantial economic and societal benefits
