The presentation of the roadmap’s conceptual framework aims to spark discussions and exchange of ideas among the country’s nation-builders. Co-organized with the Philippine Constructors Association (PCA) and DTI – Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM), the event will engage leaders and decision-makers of various infrastructure-related private sector organizations, government offices, together with financial and academic institutions, foreign embassies, and business support organizations (BSOs).
