operating under the policy guidance of the National Innovation Board, chaired <strong>by</strong><br />

the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Science and Technology. This special<br />

coordinating, networking and partnering with different organizations from various<br />

fields, such as education, technology, finance and investment, but mainly focuses on<br />

utilizing knowledge management to achieve innovation, particularly to induce<br />

“innovation on Cluster Platform” which uses innovation as the principal tool in<br />

improving the quality of life and as a driving tool for competitive economics.<br />

National Innovation Agency<br />

Our core activities involve three main areas namely:<br />

1) Upgrading innovation capability<br />

2) Promoting innovation culture<br />

3) Building up innovation systems<br />

The exhibition area of NIA at EcoInnovAsia 2008 celebrates the achievements<br />

of Thailand’s innovators through the showcases of winners for National Innovation<br />

Asia and the Pacific. Founded in 1947 in Shanghai China, it moved to Bangkok,<br />

Thailand in 1949. It consists of 53 members and nine associate members. Members<br />

and associate members of UNESCAP meet annually at the ministerial level to<br />

discuss economic and social issues and the challenges that face the region, as well as<br />

to approve the work program. An advisory committee of permanent representatives<br />

from embassies in Bangkok meets monthly to advise the Executive Secretary. The<br />

Commission reports to the United Nations Economic and Social Council in New<br />

York.UNESCAP is the most comprehensive intergovernmental body covering the<br />

Asian and Pacific countries. Thus it can address interdependent and multidimensional<br />

problems from a multispectral and inter-country perspective. The focus is<br />

now on narrowing disparities through action oriented program in three thematic<br />

areas: reducing poverty, managing globalization and addressing emerging social<br />

issues. As a result of the comparative advantages of UNESCAP– its regional<br />

convening authority, and its role as a regional focal point for world conferences, it<br />

is strategically positioned to broker regional agreements and action plans, setting<br />

regional norms and standards, and through its policy advocacy, it supports<br />

implementation. In addition to its regional authority, UNESCAP can influence the<br />

global agenda. The value of its research and analytical work is based on its impartial<br />

role, its long institutional memory with a document and information base, and its<br />

interdisciplinary approach. It can also call upon a large, well established network of<br />

intergovernmental and civil contacts. The work program reflects the needs of<br />

member countries in a cost effective way because of in-house expertise.<br />

E-mail: tochioka.t@mazda.co.jp<br />

Company Profile:<br />

Originally established in January 1920, Mazda started manufacturing tools<br />

in 1929 and soon branched out into production of trucks for commercial use. In the<br />

early 1960s, Mazda launched its first passenger car models and began developing<br />

rotary engines. Still headquartered in Hiroshima in western Japan, Mazda Motor<br />

Corporation today ranks as one of Japan’s leading automakers.<br />

Mazda has been exporting cars to the United States and Europe for over 40<br />

years and has two main production sites in Japan and 14 overseas facilities.<br />

Overseas sites include AutoAlliance (Thailand) Co. Ltd. (AAT), a joint venture<br />

established in 1995 with Ford Motor Company, Mazda’s largest shareholder. AAT<br />

produces approx. 85,000 units of pick-up, BT-50 as CBU and CKD a year and exports<br />

to almost 90 destinations worldwide. Mazda, jointly with Ford, is further investing<br />

in AAT in order to produce new compact hatchback and sedan from year 2009.<br />

National Innovation Agency<br />

Mazda boasts an illustrious history of engineering innovation, symbolized<br />

<strong>by</strong> the rotary engine. Although many leading firms attempted to adapt the concept,<br />

only Mazda persevered and succeeded in creating a commercial sports car engine.<br />

Today, Mazda is the only manufacturer in the world that makes gasoline, diesel and<br />

rotary internal combustion engines. As the latest example of innovation, Mazda has<br />

successfully produced the world’s first hydrogen rotary-engine vehicle. Mazda will<br />

continuously strive for sustainable mobility in the future. Mazda’s raison d’étre is to<br />

make cars that are fun to drive-cars that enthuse but are also affordable. The brand<br />

message “Zoom-Zoom” aims to capture this feeling, expressing the passionate spirit<br />

of motoring enjoyment that drives Mazda forward.<br />

R&D Center was established in 2003 for the benefit of our customer. A team of<br />

experienced, as well as young active researchers are working continuously on new<br />

products and solutions.Responding to the ever growing demand from the markets<br />

for a truly biodegradable “plastic”, PMTC stated in 2006 with the development of<br />

PLA formulated compounds for injections molding, blown-film production, as well<br />

as for calendaring of films. Production of PLA starts with fermentation of biomaterials<br />

(corn, wheat, cassava starch, etc) to form glucose and then turn into Lactic Acid.<br />

Followed <strong>by</strong> a Ring-opening reaction, the lactic acid is then polymerized to PLA.<br />

The use of PLA can help to reduce waste and finite petroleum resources. It is a truely<br />

environmentally-friendly, responsible, “green” polymer for the world.<br />
