Luncheon Meeting

The Philippines is entering a new phase of inclusive economic growth, where the health and well-being of its citizens are deeply connected with global competitiveness. As the nation prepares for long-term development, building a resilient and efficient regulatory environment is essential, particularly through the modernization of frameworks governing the healthcare, food, and beverage sectors. A clear, predictable, science-based regulatory environment is key to attracting and maintaining investments in the country and ensures that innovative products reach the country's citizens.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) serves as a key agency for safety and a primary driver for meaningful transformation in these industries. It is through sustained dialogue and collaboration that the government and the private sector can create a fair and open business climate by enhancing ease of doing business.

This exclusive luncheon will provide a unique platform for the European-Philippine business community to engage directly with FDA Director General Paolo Teston. Discussions will focus on the FDA's strategic priorities and offer timely insights into fostering a transparent and collaborative regulatory environment.

Through this luncheon, senior executives and industry leaders will have a meaningful opportunity to engage in a dialogue that moves beyond compliance toward true partnership. This event serves as a vital platform to explore concrete pathways for cooperation, fostering a regulatory environment that is transparent, efficient, and supportive of a healthier, more competitive Philippines.
