This strategic partnership aims to strengthen Thailand's digital infrastructure and support local organisations in their transition to the AI and cloud era, while also contributing to the robust growth of the country's digital economy.

Thailand's public cloud market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 23.6% between 2025 and 2030, reaching a total market value of US$8.51 billion by 2030.

"This collaboration with Alibaba Cloud marks a significant milestone for True IDC in enhancing Thailand's digital capabilities," said Tanawat Konsombat, head of technology at True IDC.

In its new roles as both a distributor and comprehensive MSP, True IDC will play a key part in expanding access to Alibaba Cloud's world-class technologies for businesses across all industries in Thailand.

The company will also foster a thriving digital ecosystem that promotes knowledge sharing, skills development and end-to-end cloud service delivery, he added.
