Now on its 10th year, the Philippine Computer Society needs your valuable
help to ensure that the IT Congress continues to be the flagship event that
all of us in the ICT industry can be proud of. With the theme “In High
Gear Towards Global Excellence”, this year’s Congress aims to
bring to the Philippines several international ICT experts and gurus who will
share valuable insights on current IT trends in their respective fields. After
38 years of commitment and dedication to the Filipino ICT professional, our
organization continues to contribute to building excellence in the ICT profession
to move it at par with global standards.
In collaboration
with the Department of Trade and Industry - Board of Investments (DTI-BOI),
this 3-day event will coincide with the 1st Government-Industry-Academe I.T.
