1st Subic Bay Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Congress

The 1st Subic Bay Information Communications Technology (ICT) Congress was borne out of a need to bring together the significant stakeholders in the ICT industry for the purpose of creating a technologically-advanced gateway for trade and an information and communication technology hub for business exchange.

It also aims to showcase the Subic Bay Freeport, recently acknowledged as one of the emerging ICT hubs in the country, as the premier ICT investment destination and global outsourcing center. It will also present ICT opportunities to local government units (LGUs) and empower them to create their own revenue stream through this progressive industry. The event with the theme “SUBICTECH: e-NNOVATING BUSINESS & GOVERNANCE” will focus on this fast-paced field and its sub-industries such as the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) and the more universal Knowledge Process Outsourcing which are prime propellants of the nation’s economy. It will also highlight the vast potential of the Subic Freeport as a vital frontier for innovation, service outsourcing and ICT investment promotion.

The congress will take place on November 26 to 29, 2008 and will feature top executives from the country’s leading BPO/KPO firms, vendors, suppliers and the various stakeholders as resource speakers for the plenary sessions which will be held at the modern Subic Bay Freeport Trade and Exhibition Center. A three-day exhibition and trade fair will run concurrently with a series of related meetings and plenary activities and will also highlight a job fair for the ICT and ICT-enabled industries.

This momentous event is being organized by Mediatrade Exchange Inc. with Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority as the presentor, in coordination with the Department of Trade and Industry, Subic Bay Freeport Chamber of Commerce and the Commission on Information and Communications Technology.
