Administrative and Educational Services Division Division organized a Knowledge Exchange Activity: R2R for Sustainable Operation, held under the concept of "Give and Receive" — opening a space for participants to present ideas, showcase work, and share operational challenges arising from their R2R (Routine to Research) processes, while exchanging knowledge with one another to inspire further development and sustainable operations.

Dr.Sountaree Rattapasakorn, Vice President for Administrative and Educational Services, opened the event and introduced the World Café (Marketplace Style) format — a participatory space where attendees presented their work and moved between stations to exchange feedback, using Post-it notes and stickers to offer suggestions and vote for standout projects, creating an inclusive and friendly learning atmosphere.
