The Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) Philippines and JCI Philippines have entered into a partnership to support the Philippines' hosting of the JCI World Congress 2026, scheduled for November 11-15, 2026. The agreement was formalized on November 9 at the TPB office in Pasay City, with TPB Chief Operating Officer Maria Margarita Montemayor Nograles and JCI Manila President Edison Ke signing on behalf of the organizations.
The JCI World Congress 2026 is expected to attract over 6,000 delegates from more than 120 countries, including young leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals. This event will serve as a significant platform for networking, learning, and collaboration, enriching the delegate experience and promoting the Philippines as a destination for meetings, incentive travel, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE).
The partnership between TPB and JCI Philippines is expected to bolster the Philippines' position as a top MICE destination. Clark International Airport, with its established MICE facilities and hotels, will play a crucial role in hosting the event. The congress will offer a range of tourism experiences, from culinary and cultural attractions to wellness, golf, English as a second language, and leisure activities.
The Philippine hosting of the JCI World Congress 2026 supports the National Tourism Development Plan (NTDP), which identifies MICE and special events tourism as priority areas for attracting high-value investments and strengthening the country's tourism industry. Through this partnership, TPB and JCI Philippines aim to create a powerful platform to highlight Filipino hospitality, leadership, and world-class capabilities on the global stage.
The Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) Philippines, an attached agency of the Department of Tourism, is committed to marketing and promoting the country as a world-class tourism and MICE destination. This is achieved through strategic partnerships with public and private stakeholders, anchored on travel trade shows and business meetings.
