June 2024 - A preparatory meeting between the Bulacan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) and the Provincial Cooperative and Enterprise Development Office (PCEDO) was held last June 19, 2024, at Max’s Restaurant-Kapitolyo to discuss the upcoming Bulacan Business Forum or the BCCI’s Mid-Year General Membership Meeting with the theme “Synergizing Partnership, Advancing Innovation and Entrepreneurship”. This initiative entails fostering inclusive innovation and supporting the micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the province to gain a competitive advantage, business growth, and resilience. BCCI President, Ms. Corina Tengco-Bautista; Finance and Admin Officer, Ms. Ruth Jimenez; and Membership and Business Development Officer, Ms. Jonie Mangalonzo, represented the BCCI. The activity was initially scheduled any day on August 12-16, 2024 but due to unavailability of the The Pavilion, it was temporarily moved in the month of October 2024, which is also timely as it was declared to be the “Bulacan Business Month”.
