Material Submission Showcase - FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL

“Material Submission Showcase - FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL” exhibition presents Thai materials that have been selected for inclusion in the global Material ConneXion database. It brings together more than 24 materials from across Thailand, developed by 15 outstanding entrepreneurs selected in 2025, all showcased in one shared space. The exhibition opens new perspectives on how local materials can move into contemporary design and the creative industries.
The exhibition serves as a platform to present high-potential materials and explore new creative possibilities under the concept “FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL.” This concept reflects a key mission of CEA: to support local material entrepreneurs and SMEs in their growth and help them reach higher levels of success. It also increases opportunities for these materials to gain visibility among international networks of designers, architects, and leading manufacturers, while encouraging real-world applications and global business opportunities through new collaborations — an essential driver of innovation and sustainable capability development.
