Natjira Honda, general manager and founder of PromptNow, said he traveled to CommunicAsia from Thailand to find potential partners and investors for the company's online and mobile games business.

The mobile app development company was established in 2003, and later become a subsidiary of Thai IT services company, MFEC, which acquired it in 2004. Besides apps for banking, insurance and healthcare, PromptNow in 2010 created a mobile game based on a Thai movie called King Nareusan, and has since released versions for the Web and Facebook this year.
