The Philippine Trade Training Center – Global MSME Academy (PTTC-GMEA) is poised to celebrate its 37th anniversary with a comprehensive summit focusing on the growth and innovation of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

The event is slated to take place from February 27 to 29, 2024, at the PTTC-GMEA Building in Pasay City.

Themed “Forging Global Futures: 37 Years of Pioneering Excellence and Innovation,” the celebration encapsulates the institution’s unwavering dedication to propelling MSMEs onto the global stage.

Reflecting on its rich history of nurturing entrepreneurship, the PTTC-GMEA reaffirms its commitment to fostering excellence and stimulating innovation within the MSME sector.

Aimed at equipping MSMEs with the necessary tools to thrive in the modern business world, the summit is expected to bring together industry leaders, entrepreneurs, and business innovators.

Over the course of the event, participants will engage in plenary sessions designed to impart crucial insights into the future of entrepreneurship and the role of creativity and collaboration in fostering MSME growth.

The first plenary session, “Pioneering Paths for MSME Futures,” will focus on empowering the youth with the requisite knowledge and entrepreneurial skills.

It stands as a testament to the institution’s goal of shaping a new generation of business leaders who can navigate the challenges and opportunities of entrepreneurship.

Simultaneously, “Fostering Creativity and Collaboration for MSME Growth” aims to bridge the gap between creative pursuits and entrepreneurship.

This session will serve as a catalyst for discussions on leveraging creative innovation to drive MSME success.

The anniversary celebration is more than just a nod to the past; it’s a forward-looking convergence that seeks to address the ever-evolving demands of the business landscape. It will offer attendees a chance to interact with thought leaders and explore new market opportunities through mini trade fairs and business clinics.
