Business Opportunities in the Philippines
The Royal Danish Embassy in the Philippines and the Philippine Embassy in Denmark in cooperation with the Confederation of Danish Industry are organizing a webinar on business opportunities in the Philippines on 03 June 2021, 2pm PH / 8am DK.
The Royal Danish Embassy in the Philippines and the Philippine Embassy in Denmark in cooperation with the Confederation of Danish Industry will be organizing a webinar on the current business climate and opportunities in the Philippines. This webinar is open to all Danish companies who are interested to enter the Philippine market and for those who plan to expand its presence in the country.
The Philippines was hard-hit in 2020 due to the pandemic and lockdowns which have caused the economy to contract. But the Philippines is expected to bounce back in 2021 with its strong economic fundamentals and sound government policies aimed at economic recovery. The Philippines can still be considered an ideal partner for Danish companies engaged in energy, water, infrastructure, food and agriculture, healthcare and even retail.
This webinar will present the current Philippine business climate and opportunities.
