Bringing together local and international tech entrepreneurs, business leaders, investors and private corporations, the Techtonic 2017: Manila Tech Convention is set to take place on July 29 and 30 at the SMX Convention Center from 10 am to 6 pm.
With the theme “Culture for the Future”, the event aims to mirror large tech and innovation-startup conferences in neighboring countries, like Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong, where several young entrepreneurs are becoming more active in putting up startup ventures in various fields of technology. Tech subfields, like fintech (finance technology), health tech (health technology), adtech (advertising technology) and edutech (education technology), have been floating buzz words over the recent years in this space. A good number of entrepreneurs are solving many of the world’s current problems through these breakthroughs.
Access to capital and resources needed to accelerate business growth has always been abundant, but there are not enough avenues, through which founders, investors and related groups can connect and network. Positioned to be the Philippines’s largest event targeting the country’s emerging startup scene, Techtonic provides just that—an event that not only highlights new technologies and innovative products, but also allows for interactions that facilitate the flow of business deals.
Startup entrepreneurs shall be given a chance to exhibit with other startups in a pitching competition “Startup Arena”, where they get to pitch their pioneering business ideas to a prudently nominated panel of investors. Startups that will emerge victorious shall be given equity-free prize money and the opportunity to be mentored by seasoned tech entrepreneurs, as they work to grow their business.
In Pinoy fashion, guests shall have an after-event city tours and pub crawls, organized by Philippine startups TripKada and SunnyTrip.ph. #TECHtonicPh2017 is organized by PMCM Events Management.
