At the International Design Conference (IDC) 2025, Globe took center stage as a co-presenter of a groundbreaking project meant to close the knowledge gap between academic research and business needs. In a stirring celebration of creativity and mentoring, Globe honored both students and educators as part of its dedication to youth empowerment and digital transformation via education.
The IDC 2025, which was organized in collaboration with the Department of Trade and Industry’s Design Center, provided a significant venue for exhibiting Filipino artistic talent. 76 of the nation’s top students from prestigious design schools attended an exclusive session organized by Globe with famous author and speaker Joe Pine.
In honor of Teachers’ Month, Globe also invited the educators who mentored these students, recognizing their foundational role in shaping the future of the Philippines’ creative economy.
“This partnership reflects our belief that creativity thrives when students and educators are equally empowered,” said Jonathan Cristobal, Director of B2B Marketing at Globe. “Through Globe and DTI’s Design Center, this milestone event aims to build a future-ready education ecosystem, where innovation, mentorship, and opportunity are accessible.”
Globe’s participation at IDC 2025 underscored its strategic role in shaping the Philippines’ creative economy, connecting top design students with global thought leaders, championing educators as catalysts for innovation, and reinforcing Globe Business as the trusted partner in future-proofing education for both teachers and students.
Looking ahead, Globe plans to deepen its collaboration with the design community through innovation workshops, mentorship programs, and expanded access to global creative networks. These efforts aim to build a fully connected education ecosystem, where every student has access to world-class learning tools, every educator is supported by intelligent technology, and every institution is future-proofed for the digital age.
The IDC 2025 experience, powered by Globe Business, showed how technology can serve the changing demands of both students and creative professionals, encouraging Filipinos to #GoForIt.
