The event for showcasing and granting support for 'The 4th Annual Community Crafts Innovation Excellence,

CH. Karnchang Public Company Limited, in collaboration with the National Innovation Agency (NIA) and Change Fusion Institute, has implemented the "4th Annual Community Innovation Craftsman Project." This initiative seeks to cultivate an innovation ecosystem at the community level by combining Design Thinking methodologies with local wisdom, complemented by expert consultation. The project aims to enhance the competencies of community craftsmen in developing innovative solutions to address pressing social and environmental issues, in alignment with the principle of "Creating Shared Value." This approach integrates business and societal objectives, extending beyond traditional Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to actively support sustainable development strategies in human capital, innovation networks, and grassroots economic development. The 12 teams supported by the project serve as exemplary models of collaboration between the private sector, government, and local communities. This initiative reinforces the company's commitment to driving sustainability through innovation, creating a positive and lasting impact on society and the environment.
