GWS CLOUD, an international-standard cloud service provider from Taiwan, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Office of Small and Medium Enterprises Promotion (OSMEP) under the “SME Privilege: เติมเต็ม แต้มต่อ เติบโต” program.

The collaboration aims to help Thai SMEs gain easier access to cloud services and digital transformation consulting services, reduce IT infrastructure investment and operational costs, and enhance their competitiveness in the digital era.

On June 8, 2026, representatives from GWS CLOUD participated in the MOU signing ceremony with OSMEP. The ceremony was attended by Dr. Apiradee Khaothian, Deputy Director of OSMEP, who represented OSMEP in the signing.

Since its establishment, GWS CLOUD has continuously provided cloud solutions and services to SMEs in Thailand. Through years of experience supporting growing businesses, GWS CLOUD has identified that one of the key challenges many organizations face during their early growth stages is the pressure of initial investment, particularly in IT infrastructure.

Many businesses in their early stages or expansion phases need to allocate significant resources to key areas such as product development, marketing, talent acquisition, and business expansion. At the same time, they must also manage the costs associated with acquiring and maintaining IT resources, including servers, storage systems, backup solutions, and cybersecurity protection.

These expenses can significantly increase initial operating costs and may impact capital efficiency and business growth speed.

Beyond hardware investment, many SMEs also face challenges related to IT resources, including limited technical expertise, ongoing system management requirements, and the need to design infrastructure that can support future business growth.

Therefore, cloud services have become an important solution that enables SMEs to adopt IT systems with greater flexibility, reduce upfront investment burdens, and scale resources according to actual business requirements.

With its expertise in cloud infrastructure and comprehensive enterprise service experience, GWS CLOUD is committed to helping Thai SMEs access high-quality technology solutions at an affordable cost. By reducing IT infrastructure burdens, businesses can allocate more resources toward their core operations while maintaining a stable, secure, and scalable IT environment for long-term growth.

In addition, GWS CLOUD provides 24/7 technical support to ensure businesses can operate their cloud environments with confidence and reliability.

These consulting services help businesses better understand digital technology strategies and select solutions that align with their specific operational requirements and business objectives.

2. GWS e-Pay Cloud

GWS e-Pay Cloud is a flexible cloud server rental platform that allows organizations to select virtual machine (VM) specifications based on their actual requirements and pay according to usage.

Without requiring long-term contracts, businesses can quickly deploy cloud resources and start using the service within as little as one day.

3. Exclusive Benefits for OSMEP Members

SME operators who subscribe to GWS e-Pay Cloud through OSMEP will receive exclusive benefits valued at THB 3,000, allowing them to experience high-performance, secure, and business-ready cloud services.

This initiative enables SMEs to explore cloud technology and leverage digital infrastructure to support sustainable business growth.

In addition to GWS CLOUD’s contribution to cloud services and digital transformation, several private sector organizations also participated in the SME Privilege program during the MOU signing ceremony.

These partners provide support across various areas, including business training, overseas market expansion, digital technology adoption, cost management, and sustainable development. The initiative aims to help Thai SMEs gain greater access to essential resources and practical business support.

Dr. Apiradee Khaothian, Deputy Director of OSMEP, stated that OSMEP recognizes the potential and expertise of private sector partners in addressing SME needs effectively and efficiently.

The MOU signing with these partners represents an important milestone under the SME Privilege program, which aims to integrate support from both government and private sectors. The program is designed to deliver practical benefits, improve business efficiency, and reduce operational costs for Thai entrepreneurs during the digital transformation era.
