Bring­ing busi­ness and LGUs together

Putting up a busi­ness in the Philip­pines is no walk in the park. Help­ful infor­ma­tion about set­ting up busi­ness can help a lot, but you have to go to var­i­ous web­sites offer­ing dif­fer­ent kinds of advice and information.

This is where we come in.

We bring busi­ness and local gov­ern­ments across the Philip­pines together by pro­vid­ing up-​to-​date invest­ment infor­ma­tion that mat­ters, straight from the LGUs themselves.

These con­nec­tions between pri­vate invest­ment and cities, munic­i­pal­i­ties and provinces can drive and spark eco­nomic devel­op­ment in more places in the coun­try. With busi­nesses reach­ing far­ther, there will be more jobs, improved pub­lic and wel­fare ser­vices and a bet­ter life for more Filipinos.

We are your first stop to busi­ness insight

We col­lect and gather infor­ma­tion and resources designed to encour­age busi­nesses and investors, and LGUs, to col­lab­o­rate to achieve local eco­nomic development.

Investors and busi­nesses can access:

• Com­pet­i­tive­ness pro­files of LGUs across all regions detail­ing com­pet­i­tive­ness and cost of doing busi­ness, labor and employ­ment sta­tis­tics and social devel­op­ment indicators
• News and updates affect­ing busi­ness and invest­ment in the Philippines
• Suc­cess sto­ries and best prac­tice cases of exist­ing and devel­op­ing part­ner­ships between pri­vate sec­tor and LGUs
• Links to other rel­e­vant online resources that com­ple­ment the infor­ma­tion on the site

Local gov­ern­ment teams can enhance their LGU’s eco­nomic com­pet­i­tive­ness using these resources:

• A ded­i­cated pro­file page to show­case your city or munic­i­pal­ity as an invest­ment destination
• A library of local eco­nomic devel­op­ment (LED) tools, guides, case stud­ies and fund­ing options to grow your LGU’s base of LED experts
