This time last week, we were at Geeks On A Beach! 🏖️ It was incredible to fly to Cebu and be part of the conference that talked all things tech, startup, and entrepreneurship. ⚡ We’re always excited to be part of events that lift up the Philippine startup ecosystem, and last week’s Philippine Startup Week  was definitely packed with them! It was great meeting old and new faces every time. As we near 2025, we’re even more excited for the ways we can make an impact as Founders Launchpad  🤝 Stay tuned because we’ve got a lot of things cooking.

✨ Founders Launchpad exists because we saw a gap in the Philippine startup space. And it’s through our program that we hope to see more Philippine-based startups succeed. 🚀 This year, we hosted our second cohort, full of promising startups we believe are going to make a huge impact in the industry where they operate. 🤝 The cohort has been working hard for weeks (and still do!), and we were there with them every step of the way through our program.  So it makes us so proud to watch them take the stage and share with the world what they’ve been working on, and how they’re only getting started from here. 💪 📸 Still on a high from our 2nd Demo Day last week—here are some of our favorite snaps! Were you one of the attendees at the event? Drop a comment so we can share a link to the full album of event photos with you and your team!
