Pioneer AIM grads celebrate golden jubilee with First Fruits book launch

Rigorous as it is to gain entry into the Asian Institute of Management (AIM), it doesn’t hurt to have enormous intellect and cojones to let alone to survive once you get in.

 

AIM is explicit in its qualifications:

 

“We look for candidates who possess the resilience and capacity to graduate from the Institution’s programs. Admissions test scores are one way to measure quantitative, verbal, and reasoning skills necessary for successfully completing studies at the graduate level.

 

“But the test measures only potential – although it wouldn’t hurt to have a lot of it. We also look at how applicants fared while taking earlier courses. Academic distinctions are noted favorably, as these indicate the student’s likelihood to excel at AIM.”

FIRST FRUITS. The Asian Institute of Management’s pioneer Master of Business graduating batch, MBM Class of 1971, turn over a copy of First Fruits, a collection of memoirs commemorating the golden anniversary of their graduation, to their alma mater. WAC Professor Santi Dumlao (3rd from left) poses behind the book together with ’71 batchmates (from l-r:) Freddie Burgos, Tony Samson, Butch Bautista, Bernie Jiao, and Rene Valencia. Plainly, you have to be way above average to be even considered – something that Master of Business Management (MBM) Class of 1971 had in copious reserve.

 

MBM ’71 is in itself a special bunch. Remarkable savants to begin with, the Class are actually pioneers since they hold the distinction of being AIM’s first graduating batch.

 

[For transparency’s sake, there was a class ahead. But Batch ’70 was a hybrid Ateneo MBM class, which makes MBM ’71 the first true full batch of AIM.]

 

As 2021 approached, MBM Class ’71 made plans on how best to commemorate their Golden Anniversary.

 

They weighed options, and on suggestion of WAC (Written Analysis of Cases) professor, Santi Dumlao, the class with the big cojones did as they are wont to do: 

 

They cooked up a ‘Soup Number Five,’ metaphorically speaking.

 

Or, more specifically, a ‘Soup Number Five-Oh’ for the golden jubilee.

 

Thus was the genesis of First Fruits. 

 

“Not a traditional yearbook with class biographies, but rather, a collage of life stories narrated by the class or their (surviving) families,” describes batch member Rene Valencia, Chairman of Omnipay, Inc., Lead Independent Director of GT Capital, and EEI Corp.

 

The opus is a poignant narration of memoirs; of short and easy reads, with some pieces sent in honor of departed batchmates; such as that of Carlo Katigbak in behalf of his father Nick; Rufo Colayco for his brother Boy; Mariter and Alex, wife and son, respectively, for class president Art Macapagal; and Mariel, who penned a “moving Valentine piece for husband Chito,” wrote batch member Tony Samson, Chairman and CEO of TOUCH xda, and Director at PhilEquity Fund, in his Business Worldcolumn. 

 

It was indeed a labor of love; a collaborative work led by its Editorial Board of Dumlao, Samson, and Emmy Lagniton Hayward; Advisory Board of Dumlao, Anthony P. Golamco, and Francisco H. Bautista; Executive Committee of Renato C. Valencia, Tomas V. Apacible and Manuel G. La O’; Creative Team of Marily Orosa, BG Hernandez, and Ermil Carranza; Publisher Studio 5 Designs, Inc.; and Managing Director Lagniton Hayward.

 

Ever the professor, Dumlao proudly drew parallels from the Book of Deuteronomy, relating MBM ’71 to the Israelites who, at last reaching the Promised Land, paid back the “good things which the Lord your God has given.”

 

AIM President Jikyeong Kang similarly gave praise to the school’s very own crop of ‘first fruits,’ saying, “I am absolutely amazed… 50 years later, you demonstrate that you are (still) in the forefront of innovation. Your commitment, passion, zeal for life… it’s all coming from this wonderful book.”

 

But then again, such are the expectations of any AIM product. 

 

Long has the institute been an assembly line for alpha executives destined to scale the high echelons of the corporate and civil service world, or leave it with an indelible mark.

 

As this calls to mind a Danish proverb that says, “Too many captains will sink the ship,” it is curious that with so many successful and strong willed individuals, things still manage to get done. 

 

“(At AIM) we’re not just here to learn, pick up skills and values, but we’re here to make friendship that last a lifetime,” Kang said.

 

With First Fruits, the accomplished members of batch MBM ’71 have proven themselves ego-less and capable of working in concert. But more importantly, of remaining the best of friends. 

 

All while each of them helming the country’s many great ships and becoming captains of its industries in the years that followed.

 

First Fruits launched last October 26, 2022 at the AIM facility, where the journey for MBM ’71 began, with batch members and/or their survivors attending in-person or online. 

 

And if the reader shall forgive this shameless plug, a copy is available for a goodwill price of just P2,000 at the AIM Bookstore.

 

foodpanda presents new pandAwardees

Online food delivery platforms have paved the way to level the playing field for up-and-coming small businesses and big, established names in the food industry. Likewise, the presence of both in digital platforms has allowed consumers to have convenient access to a wider variety of food choices. 

For leading online q-commerce digital platform foodpanda, the support coming from these businesses has been crucial to help them succeed in expanding and growing their footprint in the country. 

According to foodpanda Philippines Managing Director Daniel Marogy, they hope to once again shine a spotlight on the hard work and service that their partner vendors and merchants put into providing good food for the community – and they are doing that through this year’s Vendor PandAwards. 

“This year, we want to continue commending partner vendors who showed exceptional entrepreneurial skills and invaluable contribution to our growth and expansion with another round of our Vendor PandAwards,” Marogy said, adding that the diverse set of criteria of their PandAwards shows the various ways by which vendors’ performance and success can be measured. 

“Each PandAward winner is quite unique, and we wanted to show that uniqueness in the categories as well,” Marogy noted. 

Panda-best in Ratings

 

Red Ribbon has been a staple item of every Pinoy celebration and party. But aside from being a long-time household name, they have also been a constant favorite amongst foodpanda users. Because of their top-notch service as well as freshly baked cakes and goodies, it doesn’t come as a surprise that they bagged the award for the Panda-best in Ratings. 

 

The bakeshop was able to consistently maintain an average rating of 4.6 stars in the foodpanda app. 

 

Best ON-the-GO

 

Nothing beats a cold and refreshing cup of milk tea when you’re on the go or just simply roaming around the area. By ordering Serenitea through the foodpanda app, you can pick-up and enjoy exclusive discounts on your order. 

 

Having the most pick-up orders, Serenitea bagged the Best ON-the-GO award. “It’s nice that foodpanda not only was a huge help for us through food deliveries when foot traffic was down during lockdowns, but they are also a big support to us in the new normal with new services like the pick-up feature,”  Serenitea general manager Juliet Chen shared. 

 

Panda New-Comer Award

 

Another all-time favorite – this time of die-hard coffee lovers – has also been recently included in the roster of treats you can order at foodpanda. Starbucks Coffee needs no more introduction for it to become one of the most-ordered items on the app despite being a newbie in the app. 

 

Getting your favorite drinks and beverages just got so much easier now that Starbucks is finally on foodpanda!

Panda Local Heroes

 

Capturing the hearts (and taste buds) of foodies in their localities, the Panda Local Heroes is a special category awarded to local vendors who exponentially grew and expanded their business in the area through foodpanda. The award was given to Pares Retiro, Biggs Diner, Alberto’s Pizza, and JM Shawarma for the Metro Manila Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao area respectively. 

(L-R: Divine Orcia - foodpanda Philippines Partner Care Executive; Rashelle Didal - JM Shawarma Marketing Officer; Vanessa Gonzaga - JM Shawarma Marketing Supervisor; Joshua Diaz - foodpanda Philippines Partner Care Team Lead for Mindanao)

With its roster of Pinoy favorites such as sizzling bone marrow, silog, lomi, pansit, goto at halo halo, on top of its main pares dish, there’s no doubt that Pares Retiro is truly classic. 

 

“From the very start, foodpanda has played a huge part in our mission to bring what we call ‘Totoong Pagkaing Pilipino’ closer to our pinoy customers. The pandemic made this partnership even more meaningful as we made our meals available to our customers even if they can’t visit us physically,” Pares Retiro Corporate Marketing Manager Joerome Santos remarked. 

 

For Bicolanos in Naga City, Bigg’s Diner is a local fast-food favorite. It is definitely inspiring to witness  the growth of what was once a small take-out counter offering burgers and fries to all Nageños to now a special diner concept offering American food and a lot more. 

 

“With foodpanda’s strong online-ordering presence, it became a lifeline for Bigg’s Diner during the pandemic. We saw a significant increase in our sales among branches from Naga and Legazpi stores so we hope to continue doing this partnership in the future,” Bigg’s Diner Head of Delivery and Bulk Order Sales Omann Navar revealed.

“For many people, times are still tough because of the continuing effects of the pandemic. Despite that, our vendors have managed to rise above all adversities,” Marogy added. “In our own way, we want to appreciate the hard work and service they do to make our customers happy. We are also grateful for their trust and confidence, and we will continue to reinforce our commitment to supporting their growth and long-term success.” 

 

Marogy also revealed that the second round of PandAwards was a step up from their previous one with more categories and awardees in the mix. See the full list of winners for the Vendor PandaAwards 2022 here. 

The next unicorn could come from the Philippines – QBO Director

 

There’s no reason why the next unicorn should come from the Philippines.

This was the declaration of Kat Chan, QBO Innovation Hubs’ Executive Dirctor during the media gathering hosted by QBO and IdeaSpace Foundation last October 22 in Makati City.

According to Chan, the Philippines is filled with many startups and startup founders who have amazing ideas that can solve many problems and pain points in various industries. 

“We believe in the ideas being generated by our Filipino startup community. All they need is that great push, the encouragement, and the resources to bring their initiatives to the next level. The next unicorn can come from the Philippines,” Chan said. 

IdeaSpace Foundation, Inc. & QBO Innovation Hub Team (L-R):  Dave Del Rosario, Head, Community & Ecosystem; Alwyn Rosel, Head, Startup Development; Katrina Chan, Executive Director; and Ross Fallorina, Head, Partnerships

She also explained that the mission of both IdeaSpace and QBO Innovation Hub is to level the playing field in the global startup sector by providing local Filipino startups with the resources, mentoring and the network that they need to be able to compete.
 

IdeaSpace and QBO are one of the pioneer movers in the Philippine startup sector. IdeaSpace Foundation is a non-profit organization that runs founder-focused programs for early-stage startup sounders. QBO Innovation Hub, on the other hand, is a space for Filipino startups to come together, flourish, and help them succeed.

Chan has expressed her optimism of the startup sector especially now that more and more people are finally understanding what startups are.

“There was a time when many people didn’t even know about startups—what they are, what they do. But now there’s even a drama series revolving around startups. Times have changed. Now people have realized that anybody can start a startup. If they have a great idea, they can tap into a supportive local community that can help them realize their dreams.”

Philippine Startup Week 2022

Chan explained that IdeaSpace Foundation and QBO Innovation Hub’s support for startups is concretized in its yearly event, the Philippine Startup Week. 

The Philippine Startup Week 2022 is considered the largest startup conference in the country. The week-long event brings together the local startup community and highlights the various sectors, entities, and homegrown high-potential startups contributing to the growing Philippine startup ecosystem.

This year’s theme is “Homegrown Heroes: Cultivating Future Tech Giants” and will be held from Nov. 14 – 18, at the Blue Leaf Pavilion in Taguig, Metro Manila. 

“Amazing things are happening in the Philippines startup ecosystem,” Chan enthused.
