MAKATI CITY – On January 30, 2025, the Department of Trade and Industry Foreign Trade Service Corps (DTI-FTSC) held a strategic meeting with the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCCI) to discuss potential private-public partnership opportunities to strengthen trade and investment initiatives. 

Some notable collaborations between the FTSC and the PCCI include organizing events such as the Philippines – Taiwan Business Exchange in July and the Philippines – South Korea Business Forum in October of the previous year. These engagements provided a platform for key industry leaders to explore trade and investment opportunities and strengthen bilateral relations. 

The FTSC and PCCI are looking forward to continuously work together – creating impactful partnerships that benefit the Philippine business community and further drive the country’s economic growth.
