Aboitiz Future Leaders program scales up with industry partnerships
From tuition assistance to mentorship, the Aboitiz Future Leaders program delivers holistic support across the Aboitiz Group to empower scholars as young, purpose-driven Filipino leaders
The Aboitiz Foundation is strengthening its Aboitiz Future Leaders Program by leveraging collaboration across the Aboitiz Group to provide scholars with holistic support that goes beyond tuition assistance.
The foundation, the corporate social responsibility arm of the Philippines’ first Techglomerate, said the enhanced program integrates the expertise of its business units to connect academic learning with real-world experience, values formation, and community engagement.
Together with Aboitiz Foods, Aboitiz Foundation will support 12 scholars taking up animal science and forestry at Pampanga State Agricultural University, providing a comprehensive program of industry-based mentorship, curriculum alignment, and internships
Across the country, Aboitiz business units serve as implementing partners of the scholarship initiative. Scholars are given access to internships, mentoring, volunteer opportunities, and learning and development sessions designed to help them understand how their education translates into industry challenges and opportunities.
In partnership with AboitizPower subsidiary Hedcor, 12 Aboitiz Future Leaders scholars are pursuing degrees in Computer Science and Journalism at the University of the Philippines Baguio, empowering the next generation of local talent through quality education
The foundation said the approach reflects the program’s belief that leadership is shaped by responsibility and purpose. By exposing scholars to practitioners and industry environments, the program aims to build confidence, resilience, and a stronger commitment to service.
In partnership with AboitizPower, the foundation is currently supporting 36 scholars from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao who are enrolled in fields such as technology, data, communications, environmental studies, and agriculture. The scholars are studying at University of the Philippines campuses in Baguio, Cebu, and Mindanao.
