Asia CEO Forum - Davao City
About
Meet the mover-shakers of what many believe is the most important growth region in the country, **Davao City**.
Here why **IBEX Global** considers Davao the company's most important global growth location -- it's hiring 700 new staff in the next month alone. Hear why **Jun Palafox** and **Jones Lang LaSalle** considers Mindanao perhaps the biggest ground-floor real estate opportunity in the country.
Also, meet Davao's powerful City Administrator, **Atty. Quitain**, who many consider the second most influential person in Davao -- second only to Presidential candidate and Mayor **Rodrigo Duterte**.
Long ranked as one of the safest cities in the world, Davao is the economic powerhouse of Mindanao and perhaps the fastest growing region in the nation. The luncheon event will feature speakers giving economic briefings of different sector opportunities.
