It was a historical milestone for us to sponsor the Philippine Business Forum at the ASEAN Summit in Melbourne on 4 March 2024.
Our delegation consisted of the Chamber’s Executive Director Kimmi Siu Dewar and our esteemed partners, including John Kennedy (WorkQC Group), Van Tang (GHD), Pat Erick Buna (nXscale), and Ivan Trajkovski (KMC Solutions).
ANZCHAM’s President Benjamin Romualdez (Telstra) spearheaded the delegation and addressed the forum on the Chamber’s role in developing two-way trade between Australia and the Philippines and how we plan to implement Australia’s Southeast Asia Economic Strategy, as well as noting the potential growth areas of the IT-BPM industry in the Philippines.
The delegation also attended other forums, including the National Development Company Forum and President Marcos’s address at the Lowy Institute on maintaining the country’s strategic partnership with Australia.
