UPDATED: I forgot to mention that this event also commemorates the 13th anniversary of the Internet in the Philippines, heh
I’M blogging now from Dusit Hotel at the Philippine Internet Commerce Society’s 5th National E-Commerce Congress and Exhibit.
I was the moderator for the “making ‘e’ work for your business”session, which featured presentations from Divisoria.com co-founder and CEO Monching Romano; lawyer Claro Parlade, who is a senior partner at Parlade Hildawa Parlade & Eco and executive director of the Cyberspace Policy Center for Asia Pacific; and VMV Hypoallergenics CEO Laura Verallo de Bertotto.
Basically, I asked Monching, Claro and Laura questions, asked them to expound on the impact of technology on businesses, and shared a few laughs, while also asking audience members to throw questions. It was a pretty informative bull session, ranging from serious stuff to lighthearted asides.
Here’s a clip from the INQUIRER.net Videos channel on YouTube of Monching Romano sharing his experience in setting up Divisoria.com.
