The investment tab of the app will focus on 3 major investment complexes under Agriculture, Tourism, and Real property/infrastructure development, showcasing all the investment areas that are open and feasible for all interested and potential investors, while giving them easy access to contact centers to assist them of their needs.
Mati’s homegrown and local products will be highlighted on the Local Products Section. This will open opportunities to local SME’s to enjoy higher reach, by going digital with the help of the app. Trainings and education regarding digital marketing will also be provided for the SME’s to guide and to further help them access and maximize the use of digital platforms in growing their own brands.
The last section of the app will be the Culture and Arts section where grassroots of the people of Mati will be highlighted by magnifying the local tribes of Mati city. This section will feature the local tribes’ way of living, governance, customs, as well as the cultural relevance of some bizarre attractions located in many areas under the ancestral domains.
The City of Mati app team was developed by Al Francis Delagua, a proprietor of AIDOTPH IT SOLUTIONS who also developed the Mati HeatMap App which shows the locations of confirmed cases of Covid-19 in the city thereby giving caution to the public to stay away from the said areas.
Delagua said that anytime this week, the App will officially be launched. Final edits and some improvements are being made as of the moment to make the app more efficient and organized for the users.
For now, the app is accessible through the website www.cityofmati.ph. The users can also directly download the app through the site down to their mobile phones.
The app is said to be a One Stop App for individuals that have relevant interest in the city be it in tourism, investment, products or even just simply wanting to know Mati through their cultures and arts.
City of Mati Mayor Michelle Nakpil Rabat said that the mobile application is just a step towards her administration’s dream of making Mati fully digitalized in the near future. (CIO MATI)
