More Filipino entrepreneurs can grow their business if they adapt to digital technology — this was the main message during the SIGN UP! Angat Lahat sa Digital Summit 2019, the biggest mobile app summit and expo in the country that gave entrepreneurs a learning opportunity to turn business ideas into actual products and services.

Organized by Go Negosyo, the record-breaking summit attracted thousands of participants as major digital platforms opened its doors to skilled Filipino workers, as well as micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) to give inspiration and awaken the untapped entrepreneurial potential. Their objective was to educate entrepreneurs on the use of technology and digitalization, and its crucial role in the development of MSME.

“It is crucial to let more Filipinos understand that the use of these platforms is the way forward. This has led us to create the digital alliance, to come together to help many of our skilled workers and MSME. This is the beginning of real change,” said presidential adviser for entrepreneurship and Go Negosyo founder Joey Concepcion.

Given the event’s goal, Carousell, one of the world’s largest and fastest growing classified marketplaces, and also one of the partners during the summit, continues to revolutionize the e-commerce space in the Philippines by being a platform that supports micro-entrepreneurs.
