Sustainability Connect
Come and join our community event for the Philippine Startup Week 2022, a nationwide celebration to showcase Filipino startups, connect them to other founders and investors, as well as inspire future technology entrepreneurs. We have two (2) events for this week: the first one is entitled, "Sustainability Connect" to be held on November 15, 2022 at 2:00 - 5:00 PM and the second is entitled, "Scaling Up Innovation" on Wednesday, November 16, 2022 at 4:00 - 7:00 PM.
Startup founders will be gathered to discuss in front of an audience to discuss their challenges and key learnings in navigating through their startup journey. A talk will be conducted afterward by the SECRA Project to provide guidance to the participants’ conversations over light snacks and beverages that will be served in a common space with the aim of bridging the university-enterprise gap, promoting resilience, and making connections to address their resilience needs.
This event is organized by the Ateneo Intellectual Property Office (AIPO), together with the multi-national project Strengthening University-Enterprise Collaboration for Resilience Communities in Asia (SECRA) project through the Ateneo Institute of Sustainability (AIS) and the John Gokongwei School of Management (JGSOM).
