PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Dear Members and Friends,
As I reflect on the past two months, one word keeps coming to mind: momentum.
Every conversation, new partnership, and event has reinforced something I've believed since stepping into this role: CanCham is more than a business chamber. We're a community of people who genuinely want to see one another succeed.
June's 21st Joint Foreign Chambers Networking Night was a perfect example. It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces alongside new connections, all coming together with a shared belief that collaboration is how we create new opportunities. Thank you to our sponsors, partners, and everyone who joined us in making the evening such a success.
What excites me even more is what's ahead.
We've received an incredibly positive response to our upcoming Women Leading ASEAN Growth forum. It's clear there is strong demand for conversations that celebrate leadership, entrepreneurship, and the role women continue to play in shaping the future of our region. I believe this will become one of CanCham's signature events, and I look forward to welcoming many of you there.
Alongside this, we're continuing to build a calendar of programs designed to help our members stay connected, informed, and competitive—from our General Membership Meetings and Canada 101 sessions to committee briefings and new opportunities for collaboration across industries.
My vision is simple. I want CanCham to be the first place people think of when they want to build meaningful relationships, discover new business opportunities, and contribute to the growing Canada–Philippines partnership.
Thank you for your continued trust, support, and engagement. The energy around our Chamber is real, and I believe we're only just getting started. I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events.
With gratitude and optimism,
Nancy Castiglione
President & CEO
