BOI Competitiveness Enhancement Fund

Funds strategic Thai projects and companies with direct subsidies for competitiveness and expansion.

The BOI Competitiveness Enhancement Fund is Thailand's direct subsidy arm for promoted investment. The fund totals THB 10 billion and pays cash support equal to 30 to 50 percent of qualifying investment or actual expenditure for SMEs, with awards capped at THB 100 million per company. The eligible uses are practical and industrial: research and development, support for science and technology organisations, training and student internships, domestically developed technology licensing, advanced technology training, local supplier development, and product and package design. The record also identifies eligibility for existing BOI-promoted projects with expired CIT benefits, non-BOI projects seeking promotion, and new vocational-training or education ventures with at least THB 1 million of investment. This fund is strongest for companies trying to upgrade productivity, transfer technology, or build domestic capability around an existing investment plan. It fits manufacturers and industrial service firms that can document spend clearly and connect the subsidy to measurable economic improvement. No deadline or public scoring method is disclosed in the available record, so the practical path is a rolling one that depends on the underlying promotion case and the strength of the investment justification.
