LIPA CITY—Aspiring and active entrepreneurs in Lipa City were offered free mentorship during a recent stop of Go Negosyo‘s 3M on Wheels program.
The event, held at The Event Center in SM City Lipa on Saturday, May 25, provided MSMEs with one-on-one coaching from volunteer Go Negosyo mentors, including veteran entrepreneurs and executives.
3M on Wheels, a program by the Philippine Center for Entrepreneurship (Go Negosyo), goes beyond mentorship by also offering access to financing and market solutions.
The program emphasizes the three pillars of successful entrepreneurship: Mentorship, Money, and Markets.
This initiative is fueled by the rise of Filipinos venturing into entrepreneurship and aims to bridge the knowledge gap in their entrepreneurial journeys.
Lipa City Mayor Hon. Eric Africa joined mentors and MSMEs for a photo opportunity, highlighting the city’s support for the program.
Other attendees included Rotary Club of Lipa City president Orlan Bancoro, host Michael Angelo Lobrin, Pan De Batangueña owner Alyanna Caringal, PCCI-Lipa Chamber president May Ann Katigbak, DTI Batangas Provincial Director Leila Cabreros, JCI Lipa president Ronnel Sarmiento, and Women’s Business Council chairperson Rosemarie Rafael.
