We are thrilled to announce that GreenGen Biotechnology (VISTEC Spin-off) and Circularis (VISTEC Incubator) have been awarded the "Distinguished Innovation Team" shield at The Reverse Innovation Summit, held on April 25, 2026, at SIAMSCAPE.This recognition, presented by NXPO, KMITL, and Bangchak Corporation, celebrates the culmination of "The Reverse Innovation Journey"—a rigorous deep-tech incubation program. Using a "Reverse Pitching" model, this initiative bridges the gap between large-scale corporate needs and agile startup solutions.This award validates our commitment to creating high-impact, market-ready innovations. We are ready to transition these technologies from the lab into real-world commercial applications.A heartfelt thank you to all our supporters and partners for believing in our vision. Together, we are shaping the future of Thai innovation. 🌍✨Credit photo from: NXPOTHAILAND Posted on 28 April 2026
