We couldn’t have achieved this without the support of our lecturers and partners worldwide.”

“We are proud to have engaged more than 40 experts and scholars from around 20 countries and regions to participate in the creation of the curriculum. Together they bring expertise and real-life learnings to enhance the mindset, knowledge, and skills required to equip our learners to become the next generation of leaders in the digital economy,” she added.

  • Kominfo from Indonesia brought on 243 graduates from 205 organizations, of which 72 are from MSMEs.

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Lito Villanueva, Chairman of Fintech Alliance.ph, said: “ As the country’s fintech industry continues to grow and prosper, this program is a valuable driver. Together with 10x1000, we are pleased to continue playing the role of an active investor in the minds and talents of the Philippines and to bolster the foundation of inclusive fintech and digital ecosystem. We are confident that our efforts have placed the Philippines on the map of a growing digital world.”
