The Philippine mid-market plays a crucial role in driving economic growth, with many established businesses poised for expansion. However, these companies often face challenges in scaling–mainly due to limited access to capital and strategic guidance. While traditional bank financing remains a viable option, private equity (PE) has proven to be a powerful catalyst for growth, demonstrated by multiple success stories in the country. Beyond capital, PE offers valuable operational expertise, strategic guidance, and access to valuable networks that can accelerate growth.

Despite its potential, many business owners lack a clear understanding of how PE compares to alternative funding strategies, how to attract the right investors, and how to effectively partner with PE to achieve long-term success. This event will bridge these knowledge gaps, equipping business owners with the tools they need to navigate the world of PE and secure the investment necessary to scale and thrive.

The European Chambers of Commerce Philippines (ECCP) and Navegar invites you to Beyond Capital: How Private Equity Builds Businesses That Last, happening on 21 March 2025, from 12:00NN to 2:30PM at Makati Shangri-La. This event aims to facilitate connections and knowledge exchange within the Philippine mid-market ecosystem, focusing on private equity as a strategic growth and funding strategy. It will also provide business owners with the insights needed to attract and utilize private equity capital to scale and build exceptional, enduring businesses.
