South Luzon does not wait for opportunity — we build it. When our chambers move as one, no province is left behind and no enterprise stands alone. This is our time to take flight.
The region's longest-running gathering of chambers, enterprises, investors, and policy leaders — now landing in the coffee capital of the Philippines.
The South Luzon Area Business Conference (SOLABC) is the flagship convergence of the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry's South Luzon area — uniting local chambers, MSMEs, corporations, LGUs, and the academe across CALABARZON and MIMAROPA.
For its 35th edition, PCCI Lipa City takes the host chamber's seat with a theme built on a beautiful double meaning: lipad — the Filipino word for flight — and LIPA-D: Leadership, Innovation, and Partnerships for Accelerated Development.
Two days of plenaries, business matching, policy dialogues, and Batangueño fellowship — designed to send every delegate home with deals signed, partners gained, and a region lifted.
Chamber presidents, CEOs, and innovators on leading enterprises through AI, digitalization, and the next industrial wave.
Structured business matching, chamber-to-chamber alliances, and public-private partnerships across nine provinces.
Fast-tracking MSME growth through access to finance, ease of doing business, and regional supply-chain integration.
Infrastructure, tourism, agribusiness, and sustainability agendas that lift the whole South Luzon corridor.
The Voice of Business in the coffee capital of the Philippines. PCCI Lipa City champions Batangueño enterprise — from kapeng barako growers and agri-processors to manufacturers, retailers, and the new digital economy — and proudly welcomes the South Luzon business community home to Lipa for SOLABC's 35th flight.

CeremonyThe executive leadership of PCCI South Luzon and PCCI Lipa City — the visionaries welcoming the region home to Lipa for SOLABC 2026.
South Luzon does not wait for opportunity — we build it. When our chambers move as one, no province is left behind and no enterprise stands alone. This is our time to take flight.
Lipa welcomes the region not just as host, but as family. Every handshake here can become a partnership, every partnership a legacy. Let us make SOLABC 2026 the conference where ambition meets action.
Great economies are built by entrepreneurs brave enough to begin. Bring your boldest ideas to Lipa — we will give them a stage, a network, and the momentum to soar.
Leadership is measured by those we lift along the way. As we innovate and digitalize, let us never forget the MSMEs who are the heartbeat of South Luzon. Their rise is our true success.
SOLABC 2026 is made possible by partners who believe in South Luzon. Each sponsorship circle is honoured in its own cinematic feature — presented below by tier, produced by the official conference media team.

To every partner who said yes —
When we first dreamed of the 35th South Luzon Area Business Conference, we did not dream alone. You believed in Lipa. You believed in South Luzon. And you believed that when entrepreneurs rise together, an entire region takes flight.
Behind every name on this stage is a story of trust — a handshake, a leap of faith, a quiet conviction that business can build not only profit, but community. Your generosity did not simply fund an event; it lifted a movement. Because of you, doors will open for young entrepreneurs, ideas will find their wings, and the bayanihan spirit of the Batangueño will echo far beyond these two days.
We will remember this not as a transaction, but as a kinship. You are now part of the Kumintang — the ancient song of our land — and your name is woven into its newest verse.
Salamat sa inyong pagtitiwala. Salamat sa inyong pagmamahal sa South Luzon.

Fly in for the conference, stay for the region. Eight signature destinations curated by the host chamber — each with the reason it earns your itinerary, and one-tap directions from the conference venue in Lipa City.
Why it's the icon of the region: the world-famous "volcano within a lake within a volcano" — the very landmark on the SOLABC banner. Best viewed from the Tagaytay ridge or the Talisay lakeshore, ideally at golden hour.
Why it's a must: the "Vigan of the South" — ancestral bahay-na-bato streets, the balisong and barong embroidery ateliers, and the Basilica of St. Martin de Tours, the largest Catholic church in Asia.
Why it belongs on every delegate's list: you are in the coffee capital of the Philippines. Trace kapeng barako from farm to roastery to third-wave café — the same liberica heritage that once made Lipa one of the richest towns in the colonial Philippines.
Why divers fly across the world for it: Anilao sits in the Verde Island Passage, the documented center of the center of global marine biodiversity. World-class macro photography, vibrant reefs, and resorts from boutique to luxury.
Why it's South Luzon's favorite shoreline: the nearest long stretch of fine cream-sand beach to Metro Manila and CALABARZON — resort rows, watersports, and team-retreat venues that pair perfectly with a post-conference unwind.
Why it's beloved: a hilltop Spanish-mission-style sanctuary with sweeping gardens and ridge views toward Batulao — the region's most photographed retreat and wedding destination, and a serene counterpoint to two days of dealmaking.
Why it's a national treasure: the legendary "shooting the rapids" canoe ride through a jungle gorge to a thundering three-drop waterfall — one of the oldest and most thrilling eco-tourism experiences in the Philippines.
Why the world knows it: lunch at the foot of a flowing dam, carabao-cart rides through a working coconut hacienda, and a living museum of Filipino culture — the definitive South Luzon heritage-plantation experience.
