\n\tThailand is ready to sell its stories to the world. The country\u2019s Creative Economy Agency is set to launch the Bangkok International Content Market 2026 \u2014 billed as Thailand\u2019s first international marketplace for film, series and animation \u2014 running July 20-22 at Bangkok\u2019s Queen Sirikit National Convention Center.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe market is the centerpiece of Thailand Content Market 2026, a joint effort by the agency, known as CEA, and the Department of International Trade Promotion to draw international buyers and position the country as what officials are calling a \u201ccontent hub of Asia.\u201d Pitched as a business-to-business and co-production platform, BICM2026 is targeting participation from more than 80 investors and streaming services from around the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe launch comes as Thailand presses to convert its screen sector\u2019s rising international profile into an export business, part of a government soft-power drive branded Content Thailand. Streaming investment is a significant part of the picture: Netflix has said it spent some $200 million on Thai content between 2021 and 2024, and the country\u2019s Y-series \u2014 Thai boys\u2019 love dramas \u2014 have built a devoted overseas following. A Bangkok market also gives Thailand a platform in a crowded regional field that already includes Hong Kong\u2019s Filmart, Singapore\u2019s Asia TV Forum, Tokyo\u2019s TIFFCOM and Busan\u2019s Asian Contents & Film Market.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBangkok International Content Market 2026 marks a significant step in systematically elevating Thailand\u2019s content marketplace to the international level,\u201d Chakrit Pichyangkul, CEA\u2019s executive director, said in a statement, adding that the agency aims to \u201ctransform Thai content and storytelling into sustainable economic value for the country.\u201d Chakrit pointed to the country\u2019s 2020 input-output data showing that every baht invested in content \u2014 particularly film and broadcasting \u2014 returns about 1.8 baht in economic value.<\/p>\n

\n\tBICM2026\u2019s central program will be a pitching competition for Asian and Thai storytelling, drawing more than 55 film, series and production-ready projects from Thailand and the wider region, with prizes of at least $20,000. A marketplace floor will host more than 500 exhibitor booths, alongside an industry forum of talks and panels. BICM is part of the larger Thailand Content Market, a trade-department event spanning 12 creative sectors \u2014 games, animation, art toys and books among them \u2014 that is aiming for more than 300 international buyers and 10,000 attendees this year. The program\u2019s government backing is expected to help it draw participation commitments from global streamers and studios, organizers say.\u00a0<\/p>\n
