THAILAND, September 7, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Thai Digital Platform Social Enterprise Co., Ltd. (TAGTHAi), the creator of Thailand’s national digital tourism platform, has become a sponsor of “HENRY’s First Dates” — a Family Rom-Com film produced jointly by Hollywood studio Sony Pictures International Productions (SPIP) and GDH 559 Co., Ltd. (GDH). This sponsorship is intended to leverage the film industry’s influence to boost Thai tourism, encourage travel with purpose, and foster wider income distribution to local communities.

Mrs. Kanokwan Boonchai, Chief Executive Officer of TAGTHAi, stated that cinema stands as one of the most impactful mediums for conveying Thailand’s narratives, natural splendor, and unique character to diverse audiences both domestically and internationally. When delivered through an emotional, relatable perspective that mirrors people’s feelings, daily routines, and local traditions in each region, films can forge a deep bond with viewers and motivate them to experience the actual settings depicted on screen.

According to TAGTHAi, exceptional tourism starts with inspiration. Movies can serve as a powerful bridge linking travelers to destinations, regional stories, and the distinctive cultural practices of communities. The company anticipates that “HENRY’s First Dates” will encourage viewers to explore the real-world locations where the film was shot, helping to generate revenue for local businesses and community groups in those areas.

“HENRY’s First Dates” highlights Thailand’s scenic appeal through filming locations across several provinces, spanning both prominent and lesser-known destinations. These include Prachuap Khiri Khan, Chumphon, Phuket, Phang Nga, Krabi, and Chiang Rai. Together, these sites illustrate the breadth of Thailand’s tourism assets, ranging from natural attractions and cultural encounters to local ways of life. They also hold the potential to draw visitors and generate greater economic value for the involved communities and destinations.

This partnership aligns with TAGTHAi’s mission to advance Thai tourism using cutting-edge technology and digital innovation, while also promoting inclusive and sustainable travel. The company aims to create opportunities for tourist destinations and communities across Thailand to meaningfully share in the benefits of tourism growth.

“HENRY’s First Dates” is set for a nationwide release on September 17, 2026. The film is expected to be another significant work that presents Thailand
