Para Sa Bagong Bukas: Globe myBusiness strengthens support for local SMEs to adapt to new normal



While the term micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) may suggest that the industry is little in size, they play an important role in the Philippine economy. In 2019, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) noted that it accounted for 99.56% of total businesses in the country and was able to generate 4.9 million new jobs.


“It’s undeniable that MSMEs play a crucial part in today’s society. It allows entrepreneurs to become financially independent and in turn create livelihood to millions of Filipinos across the country. Globe myBusiness is tapping on the power of technology to make sure local MSMEs are digitally equipped and connected amid the new normal brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic,” shares Celeste Porto, Globe myBusiness Marketing Head.

In accordance with the telco’s overall mission of making families’ dreams come true, businesses flourish, and the nation admired, Globe myBusiness is giving recognition to local MSMEs - the modern-day heroes who play a critical role in the country’s economy this month. The Saludo SMEs campaign aims to honor and pay tribute to these businesses: their passion and successes, contribution to the nation, and now, very timely, their resilience and recovery from the COVID-19 crisis.

Online Business Consultation Caravan

Globe myBusiness has hosted a series of learning sessions through Globe myBusiness Academy. On June 25, there will be a special edition of the virtual Business Consultation Caravan via Zoom to help MSMEs adjust and navigate through new ways to do business in the new normal. This exclusive caravan will also include one-on-one consultations with industry experts on how to continue their businesses despite the economic downturns brought by COVID 19.

GCash cautions against gambling apps used for phishing

A recent investigation by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and the leading mobile wallet GCash, has led to the discovery of certain gambling sites and apps which were used for account takeovers in the recent surge of phishing scams. Additionally, some influencers may have unknowingly promoted these gaming apps without being aware of their fraudulent nature. GCash is now cautioning its users to be extremely careful when accessing online gambling sites and apps, and to avoid them altogether if possible. In this latest scheme, perpetrators created gambling apps while falsely claiming to be accredited by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). These apps deceive users with a verification process, redirecting them to a fake GCash website or payment page to top up betting credits. From there, fraudsters were able to access sensitive information such as credit card details, passwords, GCash numbers, MPINs, OTPs, and other personal data that can be exploited to gain unau...
