CCCI to Hold Bigger, Bolder Cebu Business Month 2014 in June

The business community in Cebu will be stirred once again with the various opportunities to improve, network and collaborate offered by the 18th Cebu Business Month (CBM) in June.

Organized by the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (CCCI), the only ISO-certified chamber in the Philippines, this institutionalized month-long flagship project is filled with productive events that are designed to strengthen the capabilities of Cebu-based businesses.

This year’s CBM carries the theme, “ASEAN 2015 and Beyond.” It is geared towards strengthening Cebu’s position in order to take advantage of the opportunities to be opened by the ASEAN Economic Integration in 2015.

Through this annual jubilee, the local business community are encouraged to highlight, celebrate and inspire more successes to support business ambiance and sustainable business environment in Cebu.

CBM 2014 organizers are calling on business owners to get ready to be big and bold. Guided by the theme, they are lining up a series of activities that will continue to spur Cebu’s business growth towards global competitiveness. These activities include:

• Business-in-Golf Tournament
• Cebu ICT & BPM Conference and Expo
• Cebu in the Bag Launching
• Cebu Run for the Rivers
• Creative Industries Cebu
• Entrepreneurship Seminars
• Grand Chamber Awards and Fellowship Night
• Happy Jobs Fair
• Mega Jobs Fair
• Regional Franchise Expo and Seminars
• Start-up Weekend
• Tourism and Investment Promotion

CBM 2014 committee members will launch the event in Cebu and sign a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with local partners on May 9. They will also do a similar launch in Manila and MOA signing with national partners on May 14.

On May 30, CBM 2014 will kick off with a Grand Opening Salvo.
