Business E-Journal: December 2025

In this issue, we share highlights from my AGM report and reaffirm three guiding priorities for 2026: strengthening our structure and governance; deepening advocacy and partnerships; and enhancing membership value and engagement. Our membership survey results strongly reinforce these priorities, highlighting the importance of meaningful engagement, robust advocacy platforms, and timely insights to support members’ business growth.

Celebrating Our Members

Our members continue to inspire. ABB Philippines is advancing sustainable electrification through bayanihan-driven partnerships; Holcim Philippines was recognized at the 2025 SOPI Awards for achieving millions of safe man-hours with zero lost-time incidents and fatalities; Logitech made Inc.’s Best in Business 2025 for AI-powered Smart Switching technology supporting equitable hybrid collaboration; and Nestlé joined a UNFPA-led global coalition to advance women’s health through inclusive workplace policies and science-based nutrition.

Celebrating Leadership

We warmly thank all eight Board candidates and Nomelec, and congratulate the newly elected Board of Directors. We also acknowledge executive insights shared in this issue, including contributions that advance the Philippines’ healthcare ecosystem.

As we close the year, we share the 2026 events calendar we will co-produce with and for you—advancing our advocacy priorities on ease of doing business, people and skills development, trade and industry growth, health and innovation, and sustainability.

Thank you for your continued engagement and commitment to SwissCham Philippines. We look forward to shaping 2026 together.
