DigiCon Valley: A Week-long Entrepreneurial Celebration

The Internet & Mobile Marketing Association of the Philippines (IMMAP)’s DigiCon, the flagship event for the Philippine marketing, advertising, and digital industries is back this year with its new theme: DigiCon Valley, which will take place from October 10 to 14, 2022. 

Celebrating innovation, problem-solving, and the entrepreneurial spirit, DigiCon Valley looks ahead to what will be a tipping point in the country’s start-up scene: an increase in investments for Philippine firms in the next three years, much higher compared to what industries received over the past five years combined. 

Four program tracks will set the digital agenda for brands, and, in turn, open doors for those in the digital space to connect with Philippine businesses. 

• Launchpad: Start smart by learning the tools, techniques, and tactics for digital excellence.
• Hypergrowth: Hear growth strategies from unicorns and unicorns-in-the making.
• Breakthrough: Think like an innovator, leapfrog competition, and push the boundaries in your  category.
• Enterprise: Build a culture of innovation to become an established digital-first organization. 

This year’s keynote speakers include Huffington Post founder, Arianna Huffington; Rappler CEO & founder and the first Filipino Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Maria Ressa; internationally acclaimed marketing expert and academic, Mark Ritson; Design Sprint inventor, Jake Knapp; and award-winning Global CMO of Dole Sunshine Company, Rupen Desai. 

A new addition to this year’s event is After-Hours. While the conference itself will be virtual, After-Hours will be night-set face-to-face networking sessions that will allow attendees to meet each other and make business connections. 

After-Hours will be hosted for three days in various locations around the metro: 

October 10 – Hosted by GrabAds at The Penthouse 
October 12 - Hosted by Hepmil at Xylo 
October 15 - Hosted by Angkas (venue to be announced)
