TrueBusiness and Google for Education partner to bring AI to Thai universities

The nationawide collaboration enables "AI-Driven Universities" with the creation of a comprehensive "AI Ecosystem." This initiative aims to train educators for the AI era and elevate education quality – all strengthening the country's global competitiveness.

Under this partnership, TrueBusiness will use its intelligent network to offer services like Private Wi-Fi, connecting teaching and learning across the university. Meanwhile, Google Workspace for Education will provide flexible, secure features and AI-driven tools built for teaching and learning from anywhere, on any device. Both will help prepare educational institutions to become "AI-Driven Universities”.

Empowering Educators in the AI-Era

With Google Workspace for Education, teachers can use Gemini to get learning insights, build personalized study plans, and brainstorm creative lesson plans. It also allows students and teachers to work together flexibly and securely on any device. In addition, TrueBusiness will introduce automated systems, such as Robotic Process Automation (RPA), to save time on admin and document handling, allowing educators to spend more time working directly with students. The initiative will also train Thai educational staff on digital skills development using True Digital Academy.

Dr. Teeradet Dumrongbhalasitr, Chief Business Officer, True Corporation Plc., said "Transforming the Thai education sector in the AI era to achieve sustainable outcomes requires an ecosystem that supports the transition of learners, educators, and educational institutions in parallel. True Corporation has previously collaborated with Google to drive the 'AI for All Thais' project, continuously expanding opportunities for Thai students to access AI knowledge and skills. Recently, TrueBusiness has extended the partnership with Google for Education to support Thai universities in becoming “AI-Driven Universities”, systematically integrating digital infrastructure, intelligent communication network, a world-class educational platform, and AI technology, alongside digital systems and tools for administration and future skill development.

Furthermore, we share a common goal of establishing blueprints and AI-digital roadmaps for Thai higher education. This will drive the practical application of technology in teaching, administration, and instructors’ capability development, ensuring readiness for the emerging landscape of both the educational and future workforce. Consequently, this partnership is not limited to merely adopting AI in classrooms; rather, it focuses on building a resilient AI-era education ecosystem. This framework will support the advancement of Thai universities across all dimensions including educational quality, human resources, and future-ready skills which will serve as the foundation for developing a high-quality digital workforce to drive the digital economy and further enhance the country’s competitive advantage."

Scott Wong, Southeast Asia & Northeast Asia (ex-JP) Lead, Google for Education, said, “We believe that education is a foundation for opportunity and equality and our collaboration with TrueBusiness will help empower universities across Thailand. By combining TrueBusiness’ reach with Google’s flexible, secure features and AI-driven tools built for educators, we are enabling Thai universities to adopt AI in meaningful ways, creating a more flexible, collaborative and secure future for students and educators alike.”
