Mitihoon – AIS Academy has gained regional recognition as the only Thai telecommunications organization to be listed in  the Steward Leadership 25 (SL25) award for its “JUMP THAILAND Hackathon 2024” project. The initiative was selected as one of the 25 leading private-sector projects in the Asia-Pacific region, highlighting its effective use of innovation to enhance the quality of life for older adults and persons with disabilities.

The JUMP THAILAND Hackathon 2024, organized by AIS Academy, was designed to mobilize the collective power of young innovators, students, entrepreneurs, and communities to co-create AI- and 5G-powered solutions aimed at improving the quality of life for the elderly and people with disabilities. The project addresses the challenges of an aging society while reducing gaps in access to essential services. Supported by expert mentors, participants were encouraged to further develop their ideas toward real-world implementation. The project attracted more than 3,300 participants, including AIS employees, representatives from the public and private sectors, community organizations, students from 31 universities, and members of the general public. This collaboration resulted in practical innovations such as mobility-assist devices, health monitoring applications, and communication platforms for individuals with autism. The project aims to expand its impact to benefit more than 50,000 people by 2027.

Ms. Kantima Lerlertyuttitham, Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Corporate Officer of AIS, stated: “The Steward Leadership 25 (SL25) award reflects AIS’s vision to comprehensively enhance the skills and potential of Thai people. This includes employee development through the AIS LearnDi platform, reducing digital inequality via learning communities and programs for teachers, tutors, and youth, as well as creating open spaces for innovation through initiatives such as the JUMP THAILAND Hackathon 2024. AIS is committed to driving society forward through 5G infrastructure and AI expertise, with a strong focus on improving the quality of life for the elderly and persons with disabilities under the Ecosystem Economy concept, which places people at the heart of development. These efforts have been continuously advanced through AIS Academy for more than eight years.”
