AIS Strengthens Partnership with TOD INNOVATION to Advance Digital Mobility in the EEC, Elevating Smart Transportation and Connecting Thailand’s Digital Infrastructure to Global Standards

AIS has joined forces with strategic partner TOD INNOVATION to accelerate Thailand’s transition into the era of Digital Mobility, particularly within the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC). By combining Thailand’s leading intelligent network infrastructure with advanced vehicle management and safety innovations, the collaboration aims to establish a new benchmark for smart transportation systems that deliver accurate, efficient, and real-time connectivity. Together, the two organizations are driving the development of a strong and sustainable digital transportation infrastructure for Thailand.

Mr. Sompop Kittivirulwat, Head of Regional Operations, Eastern Region, AIS, emphasized the strategic importance of the EEC:

“AIS is committed to developing Intelligent Infrastructure as the digital foundation of Thailand. The EEC plays a critical role in driving Industry 4.0, and we have continuously invested in 5G and AI technologies to support the development of sustainable Smart Cities. Our initiatives align with Green Energy concepts and energy management strategies aimed at reducing carbon emissions.

Today, AIS 5G covers more than 95% of Thailand’s population, including extensive coverage across industrial estates in the Eastern region. This strength has been recognized by Ookla® through awards for Thailand’s Best Mobile Network and Best 5G Network. Such capabilities will serve as a key enabler for partners like TOD INNOVATION in connecting transportation and logistics systems with national infrastructure projects, including high-speed rail networks and industrial ports, enhancing Thailand’s competitiveness on the global stage.”

Mr. Thanit Viratphan, Chief Executive Officer of Total Digital Innovation Co., Ltd. (TOD Innovation), stated:

“In today’s transportation industry, safety is no longer an option—it is a necessity. As a leader in transportation safety technology, TOD Innovation sees the development of the EEC as a significant opportunity to elevate Thailand’s logistics standards to an international level.

A critical factor behind successful Digital Mobility is network reliability. For this reason, we place our trust in AIS SIM solutions to power our core innovations, including the TENKO and TESUTO intelligent alcohol screening devices, which have received National Innovation Awards for their contributions to road and workplace safety. We also utilize AIS connectivity for our GPS tracking systems and AI-powered MDVR camera solutions that help optimize logistics management.

Today, TOD Innovation is proud to be the No.1 enterprise customer in Eastern Thailand with the highest usage of AIS SIM cards for multiple consecutive years. We firmly believe that the combination of TOD’s advanced technologies and AIS’s intelligent network infrastructure will establish a new standard of transportation safety and strengthen investor confidence in Thailand’s long-term economic growth.”

This partnership extends beyond technology deployment. It represents a shared commitment to supporting Thailand’s national strategy by reducing travel times and transportation costs through intelligent systems. As the country prepares for the full-scale adoption of 5G and IoT technologies, AIS and TOD Innovation are working together to drive digital economic growth and advanced innovation investments throughout the Eastern region and across Thailand in a sustainable manner.
