Here's a landmark conference that Pinoy SME business owners and technopreneurs - both budding and established - certainly shouldn't miss!

Committed to transform businesses through technology, Microsoft Philippines will hold its inaugural Microsoft Big Top Cloud Festival in the Philippines from September 8-11, 2015. The weeklong event gathers top business leaders and technology experts in the country and across the region for information sharing to underscore the role of technologies such as the cloud for professional success.

According to findings from research firm IDC, “Small businesses using cloud computing are 1.7 times more likely to have over 10% revenue growth compared to similar sized companies in general."

As the ASEAN integration looms, businesses investing in technologies such as the cloud can put more businesses at par with regional and global competition and accelerate the growth of the economy.
