Event Details

The Philippine economy has shown steady progress over the years and is projected to grow by up to 6.4% throughout 2025. With the country's increasing participation in various Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), the Philippines is expected to expand its market and access more economic opportunities. This sets the stage for a broader discussion on infrastructure development and the significant impact of Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) across multiple sectors, including logistics, manufacturing, technology, and renewable energy, which are vital to sustaining the country's economic growth and competitiveness.


Join the Belgian-Filipino Business Chamber, British Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines, Dutch Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines, French Chamber of Commerce Industry in the Philippines, Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines, German-Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry, European Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines, and Nordic Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines this 16 January 2025, for the 9th Joint Economic Briefing at Dusit Thani, Makati.


From trade policies and legislation to sustainable economic development, this event will present insights into the Philippine economic situation by assessing Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) and investment opportunities for economic growth and resilience.
