DASMARIÑAS CITY, Cavite — The City of Dasmariñas Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (CDCCI) is gearing up for its first-ever Business Expo, set for September 11–12, 2026 at the Dasmariñas Arena. The event follows a strategic courtesy call with city officials to secure full support for the initiative.
A Strategic Alignment for Growth
Officers of CDCCI recently met with Vice Mayor Third Barzaga and members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod. The meeting served as a crucial step to present the expo’s objectives and secure legislative backing. By working hand-in-hand with policymakers, the chamber aims to foster a more supportive environment for local businesses.
The discussions focused on creating opportunities for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and unlocking new investments across the city. This collaboration between the business community and the local government is central to the expo's mission. It ensures the event has the institutional support needed to maximize its impact on the local economy.
Engaging the Community
To ensure broad participation, the CDCCI team also conferred with Ms. Joanne Mata from the Office of the Mayor. Her office will play a key role in disseminating details about the expo to various community groups. This includes organizations like Kababaihan ng Dasmariñas sa Bagong Milenyo (KDBM) and the Dasmariñas City Green Ladies.
This grassroots approach aims to make the expo a truly city-wide event, engaging different sectors and demographics. By involving these organizations, the organizers hope to drive significant foot traffic and create a vibrant, inclusive atmosphere. The goal is to ensure that the benefits of the expo reach all corners of the community.
A Two-Day Festival of Business
The 1st City of Dasmariñas Business Expo will be a two-day gathering featuring seminars, trade exhibits, and networking opportunities. Attendees can look forward to motivational talks from featured speakers. RJ Ledesma will speak on September 11 at 4:00 PM, followed by Chinkee Tan on September 12 at the same time.
General admission tickets are priced at ₱300 and can be purchased at the venue. The event will also feature product launches, demonstrations, and a Food Bazaar. The expo is designed to be a comprehensive platform for learning, showcasing, and connecting for entrepreneurs and business professionals alike.
