Micro entrepreneurs now have a pathway into one of the country’s largest business events through the launch of the MSME Village Powered by Advocacy Partners at the upcoming PHILSME Business Expo & Conference.
Happening May 22–23, 2026 at the SMX Convention Center Manila, the 18th PHILSME will formally welcome micro enterprises into its exhibitor community. As part of its advocacy, PHILSME will select and grant sponsored exhibit placements to chosen micro businesses.
The expo is expected to draw over 12,000 visitors across two halls, creating opportunities for exposure, partnerships, and growth within a national business environment. Alongside the MSME Village, the returning Franchise Village will feature franchisors offering scalable and structured business opportunities, giving aspiring entrepreneurs additional pathways to expansion.
“With every edition, PHILSME must grow not only in size but in responsibility,” said CEO and Managing Director Trixie Esguerra-Abrenilla. “We are creating deliberate space for micro enterprises to participate in the same marketplace as larger businesses, while also connecting entrepreneurs to scalable models that can help them grow.”
PHILSME is also inviting brands and companies to expand the initiative by sponsoring additional MSMEs and strengthening inclusive enterprise participation within the platform.
