Duangjan Varakamin, Anuwat Cholpaisal, Pairin Cholpaisal

ABSTRACT: Sustainable Development Goal 9 (SDG 9) encompasses three important aspects of sustainable development: infrastructure, industrialization and innovation. Infrastructure provides the basic physical systems and structures essential to the operation of a society or enterprise. Industrialization drives economic growth, creates job opportunities and thereby reduces income poverty. Innovation advances the technological capabilities of industrial sectors and prompts the development of new skills. This paper adds some new insights to sustainable industry studies by evaluating SDG 9 in the context of Thailand.

Keywords: Sustainable Development Goal 9, sustainable industry, Thailand.
