17 October 2025
In a pivotal move to accelerate the nation's digital future, the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) will host the 51st Philippine Business Conference and Expo (PBC&amp;E) on October 20-21 at the SMX Convention Center Manila.
The conference, themed “The Future is Now: Unleash the Power of Digital Transformation,” will convene top government officials and global industry leaders to address critical challenges and forge actionable strategies for nationwide digital adoption.
The event transitions from a traditional summit to a dynamic, immersive experience, combining high-level policy discussions with a hands-on showcase of cutting-edge technologies. The goal is to provide Filipino businesses—from MSMEs to large enterprises—with the practical tools and partnerships needed to thrive in a digital economy.
“We are transforming this year’s conference into a strategic launchpad,” said PCCI President Consul Enunina V. Mangio. “It’s more than discussion; it’s an immersive, hands-on technology showcase designed to equip every Filipino business with the insights and connections necessary to future-proof their operations and ensure no one is left behind.”
The urgent need for this transformation is underscored by the Philippines' current standing in global competitiveness. While the country has shown progress in areas like e-commerce legislation and AI adoption, it still ranks 61st out of 67 economies in the 2024 IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking.
“Ready or not, we must move decisively toward digital transformation to keep pace with the world,” declared Dennis Anthony Uy, 51st PBC&amp;E Chairman. “At this conference, we will demystify technology. We will showcase real-world solutions for real-world business problems and bring together voices from every sector—public, private, startups, and the next generation.”
VP Sara Duterte to open the Conference
Vice President Sara Duterte will deliver the keynote address on the opening day, setting the tone for the country’s unified push toward digital transformation.
Other confirmed government leaders include Information and Communications Technology Secretary Rhoel Aguda, Science and Technology Secretary Renato Solidum, Jr., Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon, Education Secretary Sonny Angara and Supreme Court Associate Justice Jose Midas P. Marquez.
The conference will also feature global technology visionaries including Yuwon Kim, CEO of Naver Cloud Corp; Lin Shi-Hao, Leader of Foxconn’s Southeast Asian Region Headquarters;
Kenneth Siow, Regional Director for Southeast Asia and General Manager (SGMY) of Tencent Cloud International; and, Reo Shoji, Bid Director of FPT IS Global.
They will be joined by leading Philippine tech leaders such as Benedicto Bulatao, COO of ComClark; Carl Raymond Cruz, President and CEO of Globe Telecom; Arnie Alvarez, CTO of Huawei Philippines; Benjamin Tan, Senior Manager- ASEAN Analytics Solution Engineering of Salesforce; Lito Villanueva Chairman of Fintech Alliance.PH; Martin Ignacio Paez Lorenzo, Chairman and CEO of First Lucky Holdings Corp.; Jose Maria A. Concepcion III, Founder of the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship-Go Negosyo; Ferdinand Ferrer, President and CEO of EMS Group; Atty. Angelo A. Jimenez, President, University of the Philippines, and Malyn Molinam President and COO of EON The Stakeholder Relations Group.
Adding spark to the conversations will be renowned Bilyonaryo News Channel anchors - Pinky Webb, Maiki Oreta and Willard Cheng, together with Eduardo Sumulong, President and CEO of Land Registration Systems, Inc.; and Imelda Ceniza Tiongson, President and CEO, Opal Portfolio Investments, Inc.’
Be part of this transformative movement. Join the 51st Philippine Business Conference and Expo on October 20–21 at the SMX Convention Center Manila and experience how digital transformation can redefine the way we do business in the Philippines. ###

The Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI), through its SDG Committee, successfully launched the first-ever SDG Effectiveness Summit at the Dusit Thani Hotel last September 11. The landmark event brought together business and government leaders, alongside development partners, to mobilize accelerated action toward achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
PCCI Vice President for Regional Affairs and Director for SDG Ms. Alegria S. Limjoco set the tone, highlighting the summit's role in translating complex global goals into simple, actionable strategies for businesses. This sentiment was echoed by PCCI Vice President for International Affairs Mr. Jude Aguilar and UN Resident Coordinator Mr. Arnaud Peral, who underscored the urgent need for concrete action with only five years left until the 2030 deadline. They emphasized that the SDGs are not just a global agenda but a core business strategy for building resilient communities and a stable economy.
The program provided a comprehensive view, from the national direction to grassroots practices. Department of Economy, Planning, and Development Undersecretary Rosemarie Edillon reported on the Philippines' progress, affirming the private sector's role as a catalyst for achieving SDG targets. This was complemented by real-world examples from PCCI leaders across Luzon, Visayas, and NCR, who shared tangible best practices from businesses of all sizes.
A key outcome was the signing of a landmark PCCI Call to Action, a multistakeholder pledge with major organizations including the Employers Confederation of the Philippines, PHILEXPORT, the Philippine Franchise Association, and the Philippine Retailers Association. This commitment reinforces a collective drive to integrate and monitor practical SDG interventions, ensuring inclusivity and targeted impact are at the core of business growth.
The event was made possible through the support of PHILEXPORT, Philippine Franchise Association, Phoenix Publishing House, Coolaire Consolidated Inc., Gruppo EMS, UNDP Philippines, and Alay Buhay Community Development Foundation, demonstrating how multisectoral partnerships can accelerate our collective journey toward the Sustainable Development Goals.

The Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry – North Luzon (PCCI–North Luzon) gathered more than a hundred business leaders, local chamber presidents across North Luzon, and agriculture champions at its 3rd General Membership Meeting held on September 30, 2025 in Angeles City, Pampanga. The event was hosted by the Pampanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry under the leadership of President Atty. Paul Yusi.
With the theme “Agriculture Resilience for Food Security, Livelihood Protection, and Farmer Empowerment,” the meeting focused on the urgent challenges and opportunities facing North Luzon’s agriculture sector.
The program opened with inspiring messages from Area Vice President for North Luzon Atty. Maria Amalia Tiglao-Cayanan and Vice President for Membership and Regional Affairs and Director for SDGs Ms. Alegria Sibal-Limjoco, who both emphasized agriculture’s central role in driving inclusive growth and regional development.
Two major discussions defined the afternoon. SDG Committee Chairman Mr. Joel Ryan E. Tugade spoke on empowering North Luzon farmers through value chains, agritech, and market linkages, underscoring the need for partnerships on facilities, enhanced government service delivery with multilateral expertise, and climate resilient agri food systems through proper crop planting. Agriculture Committee Chairman Mr. Paul Cuyegkeng highlighted the importance of climate-smart agriculture to safeguard food security and rural livelihoods, stressing the need to mitigate and adapt to risks through scientific methods to increase yield and returns for both companies and farmers.
Both discussions tied directly to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), reaffirming commitments to end hunger, promote agri-innovation, ensure decent work, and strengthen resilience against climate change.
The event also brought together PCCI North Luzon’s Regional Governors: Ms. Cristina Tuzon (Region III), Mr. Deimler Cuyan (CAR), and Mr. Pancrasio Nisce (Region I) — further strengthening the collective resolve to empower farmers, protect livelihoods, and build a more sustainable future for agriculture in the region.
