Four groups inside the chamber

Each of these has a page of its own on their site, with its own purpose and its own rhythm of meetings.

GTCC SME Focus Group

Established in August 2024. Group members are executives of small and medium-sized enterprises with typically up to 250 staff in Thailand. Events are highly interactive discussions, up to 30 members at a time, bi-monthly, two hours, no admission fee, on topics from AI and financing to HR, labour law and cybersecurity.

GTCC Clean Air Initiative

Formed after the chamber sent a survey on clean air to its members, as a working group with around 20 participating member companies. Its published record is a webinar series with Bosch Mobility, Siemens Energy, Siemens, MAN Energy Solutions, Mercedes-Benz and CLAAS, and a reading list of Thai air quality reporting.

The member list

There is no member directory on this site, and that is their position rather than ours. Their Member List page says the Membership Directory page is being updated, and serves the current list as a PDF in the meantime. A list rebuilt by reading company names out of that file would be a page they have taken down, so the link goes to their file instead.

Their Member List page carries the current list as a file, dated by them 1 September 2026.

More than 550 member companies, and the membership is open to individuals too.

Ordinary Membership for companies registered in Thailand, Associate Membership for companies registered outside it, and a Personal Associate Membership that cannot be transferred.
