Hundreds of attendees from Metro Pacific Investments Corporation, PLDT, Smart, and MedExpress actively took part in the discussion. The mind health webinars will also be conducted for employees of PhilCare and Generali.

 


mWell also formed a groundbreaking partnership to make employees of the Philippine Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) winners in wellness.
