This is the essence of business interdependence,\u201d Devanadera said.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n With 256 representatives from 156 Freeport companies in attendance, the conference concentrated on advancing inter-locator trade.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The morning session was tailored for senior management and CEOs, and the event featured the launch of a collective mark for products, branded with a “Made in Clark” certification.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Some 33 companies showcased their products through an exhibition.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Representing Special Assistant to the President for Investment and Economic Affairs, Secretary Frederick Go, Undersecretary for Strategic Partnerships and Engagements Joee Guilas conveyed strong support for the BIC.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cThis collaborative approach not only helps identify potential new revenue opportunities but also leverages the benefits of being in a Freeport Zone. We support this ecosystem approach as a way to accelerate your collective growth,\u201d he said. <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The conference also included business-to-business (B2B) sessions designed to explore potential partnerships and facilitate strategic business models.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Key topics included solar rooftop solutions, which offer businesses the potential to reduce electricity costs by up to 30% through solar energy.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The BIC is part of CDC\u2019s broader initiatives to sustain investment interests within the Freeport, foster collaboration, facilitate resource sharing, and create new revenue streams among Clark locators.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BY KEVIN GALANG CLARK FREEPORT — The Clark Development Corporation (CDC) on Wednesday hosted the inaugural Clark Business Interdependence Conference (BIC) held at the Hilton<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8380,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[6],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8379"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8379"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8379\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8382,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8379\/revisions\/8382"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8380"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8379"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8379"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8379"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/journaldailynewsonline.com.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/bic-1024x683.jpg\")
