Supporting Thailand’s next generation of AI startups

OpenAI and Thailand’s Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation are launching an eight-week accelerator to help startups turn promising ideas into products ready for real-world use.

Today in Bangkok, OpenAI and Thailand’s Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI) announced a new accelerator to help Thai startups turn promising prototypes into products ready for real-world use and growth.

The OpenAI x MHESI AI Accelerator brings together ten startups working across health, wellness, and education. It marks OpenAI’s first public-private partnership with the Thai government focused on supporting local startups, and is being delivered with partners including the National Innovation Agency (NIA), Mahidol University, and Techsauce.

A compelling AI demonstration is only the beginning. Building a product that people can rely on is much harder. It takes careful testing, feedback from real users, strong safeguards, and a business model that can support the product as it grows. That work matters even more in healthcare and education, where the stakes are high and reliability is essential.

Over eight weeks, participating founders will work with mentors from OpenAI and across Thailand’s technology, research, and startup communities to bridge the gap between prototype and deployment.

Thailand combines strong technical talent with deep expertise in fields such as healthcare and education, supported by a fast-growing community of AI builders.

Our internal data shows that Thailand ranks among the top 20 countries globally for ChatGPT weekly active users. Since the start of 2026, weekly active usage of Codex in Thailand has grown more than 350-fold, also placing the country among the top 20 globally for Codex usage.
