Bangkok, Thailand, October 8, 2025 / TRAVELINDEX / The Richmond Hospitality Group, under the leadership of President Khun Laksawan Wongworrakan, in collaboration with Dr. John Chakraphad Pitakthararuay, CEO & President of 1 Action Education Co., Ltd. and the Kaew Chakraphad Foundation, and Mr. Bobby Ortiz, Country Coordinator of STEM Racing Thailand, is proud to host the national final of STEM Racing Thailand 2025.

The event will take place from October 10th to 12th, 2025 in the Richmond Grand Ballroom of the Grand Richmond Stylish Convention Hotel in Nonthaburi.

This year's national finals will see 25 teams of Thai students, along with international teams from Malaysia and Japan, compete in the STEM Racing program – a globally recognized competition officially supported by Formula 1. The challenge requires students to apply science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to designing and driving miniature Formula 1-style race cars, thereby honing both their technical and entrepreneurial skills.

A particular highlight of the 2025 Thai STEM Racing National Final will be the first visit to Thailand by Andrew Denford, Chairman and Founder of STEM Racing (supported by Formula 1 UK). He will attend on the second day of the event, underlining Thailand's importance in the global STEM Racing community.

The STEM Racing Thailand 2025 national final takes place at a pivotal moment: recent high-level talks with the CEO of Formula 1 have raised the possibility that Bangkok could host Formula 1 races as early as 2028. Against this promising backdrop, STEM Racing Thailand is not only an outstanding educational institution but also a platform for soft power, driving Thailand's global ambitions in motorsport and beyond.
