< Back NIST International School Students Win Global Awards 22 Mar 2023 We would like to offer big congratulations to the students from NIST International School in Bangkok who have been recognised for their innovative solution at the 2022 Diamond Challenge, a global entrepreneurship competition for high school students. The team, led by Mix, Setsiri Chaiyosburana, was awarded ‘The Global Innovation Prize,’ one of the only two such prizes awarded to the 700 teams from 37 countries and 28 states who competed in the competition. The team presented NANO-L, an anti-pathogenic coating that incorporates silver nanoparticles to effectively eliminate pathogens. What sets NANO-L apart from other anti-pathogenic coatings is the environmentally friendly production process it employs. Sugarcane leaves are used to create silver nanoparticles, which were inspired by Setsiri Chaiyosburana's trips to visit his grandparents in Kanchanaburi, where he witnessed sugarcane fields emitting plumes of black smoke during the burning season. NANO-L's remarkable achievements go beyond the Diamond Challenge Global Innovation Prize, as it also received acclaim in other international competitions such as the iCAN competition in Canada, and the WICO and Inventions Geneva competitions. Setsiri hopes that the accolades they have received will inspire more opportunities for Thai youth inventors to showcase their practical and innovative ideas.

< Back A Night to Remember: The Thai-Swedish Chamber of Commerce’s 10-Year Jubilee 22 Aug 2024 ‘Ten years after and still going strong’ by Christer Nilsson from STEP Magazine Vol. 8/No. 1, February 1999 The Thai-Swedish Chamber of Commerce’ ten-year jubilee on Saturday 6 February was celebrated in grand style at The Oriental, with the most enduring swingers still dancing the night away as Sunday morning approached. Others took refuge at the long bar in the Grand Ballroom, quenching their thirst with whatever wet stuff left in the early hours. But the evening began on a more serious note. After the Thai and Swedish national anthems were played in front of the over 150 participants, our Ambassador, H.E. Ms. Inga Eriksson Fogh, toasted the Kings of Sweden and Thailand and read a telegram from His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf congratulating the TSCC on its 10th anniversary. The royal telegram has its reasons. Sweden's King and Queen graced the birth of what was then the Thai Swedish Business Association with their presence, here in Bangkok ten years ago. The dinner that followed had it all. But a special hurrah for the delicious Bisque Vasa, a marriage between the king of Thai soups, Tom Yam Gung, and a French Bisque D'Hommard. A culinary luk kreung. As avec Swedish punsch, courtesly provided by the Swedish Ambassador, was served as an alternative to the traditional cognac. Cigar aficionados rounded off the meal puffing a Montague, Swedish Match' premium brand cigar, that was on sale at the ball. Then music, lottery and dance. Over 50 lottery prizes were donated by more than 20 TSCC members. Thanks to the organizers, the sponsors and to everyone who participated and made this a night to remember! Previous Next
