Technology companies from China are among the participants in the ongoing Innovation Summit 2022 in Davao City, which opened on Thursday at Acacia Hotel Davao.
In an interview, Consul General Li Lin said the Chinese Consulate General in Davao invited five prestigious technology companies to participate in the event that features such leading tech companies as Huawei, China Telecom, China Comservice and Fiber Home.
“These companies already operating in Davao City, in Mindanao and in the Philippines. These are some of the bilateral cooperations that we have between two governments,” Lin said.
Lin also said that nowadays connectivity is very important and information sharing specially for the micro, small, medium enterprises (MSMEs).
“I think the internet coverage is very important to help in terms of accessibility to interact and get information. I think with better internet coverage and mobile service to the community specially to hard to reach areas, I think this will benefit the economic growth and help the MSMEs to develop their businesses,” Lin said.
