Intelligence at Scale: Accelerating the PH Pivot

Intelligence at Scale: Accelerating the PH Pivot signals the urgency and ambition of the Philippine IT-BPM industry’s next chapter. As AI transforms how value is created and reshapes the rules of global competition, the Philippines must move faster—from delivering at scale to leading with intelligence.

IIS 2026 will examine how the country can accelerate this pivot by expanding the high-value work already being delivered here, directing investment toward next-generation capabilities, and combining technology, talent, and trust to turn disruption into lasting Philippine advantage.

ABOUT THE SUMMIT

The International IT-BPM Summit (IIS) is the flagship annual conference of the IT and Business Process Association of the Philippines (IBPAP) and the country’s premier gathering of leaders from the global services, technology, and digital economy.

Each year, IIS convenes senior executives, global enterprises, Global Capability Centers (GCCs), technology companies, investors, policymakers, development partners, and academic institutions to examine the trends reshaping the industry and the strategic decisions that will define its future.

With more than a thousand delegates from the Philippines and around the world, IIS has established itself as one of Asia’s leading forums on global services and digital transformation, connecting regional perspectives with global insights and turning emerging trends into practical action.

ABOUT THE ORGANIZERS

The IT and Business Process Association of the Philippines (IBPAP) is the primary trade body and advocacy group of the country’s agile, dynamic, and resilient IT and Business Process Management (IT-BPM) industry.

With over 400 members and six partner associations—the Animation Council of the Philippines, Inc. (ACPI), Customer Xperience Association of the Philippines (CXAP), Global Capability Center Council (GC3) Philippines, Game Developers Association of the Philippines (GDAP), Healthcare Information Management Association of the Philippines (HIMAP), and the Philippine Software Industry Association (PSIA)—IBPAP plays a pivotal role in sustaining the growth of the IT-BPM industry by working with stakeholders in the government and academe to ensure an enduring supply of high-quality labor, support service innovation, and provide country visibility.

IBPAP also assists investors in setting up operations easily and quickly in the Philippines through relevant research, introductions to key officials, and a series of briefings at each step of the investment process. Initiatives for human resources, business development, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities are also made available to members. Ongoing support is then provided through a wide variety of initiatives, including programs for HR development, business development, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities. IBPAP works closely with the government, academe, and other key stakeholders to make this possible and to reinforce the Philippine IT-BPM industry’s global competitiveness and relevance.
