29 August 2023 – The Makati Business Club, Philippines U.S Business Council, and the American Chamber of Commerce welcomed this year’s delegates from the Filipino-American Young Leaders Program (FYLPRO). This event is in coordination with the Ayala Foundation.

Now in its 11th year, FYLPRO is an immersion program launched by MBC Trustee and Philippines-US Business Council Chair Jose L. Cuisia Jr. in 2012 at the suggestion of his wife, Vicky Cuisia, to strengthen PH-US relations by engaging emerging Filipino-American leaders during his tenure as Ambassador to the United States.

Throughout the delegates’ week-long stay, they engaged with key players of the Philippine business community, policymakers, and media. Since its launch, FYLPRO has produced ninety-nine (99) delegates.

He continued “The Makati Business Club takes pride in its role as a convenor. With FYLPRO as the next generation of Fil-Am leaders and with leaders of the Philippine Business Community.”

This year’s featured speakers are Hawaii Representative Trisha La Chica and a YouTube Music and Podcast Content Strategy Lead Jan Tancinco. American Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Ebb Hinchliffe was also present to give the Closing Remarks.
