The high-level event brought together major stakeholders from both the Philippines and the United States, serving as a dynamic platform to strengthen investment partnerships, accelerate trade and advance global collaborations for sustainable economic growth.
Ms. Josefa Catherine T. Bada, Vice President for Airport Management, presented the investment potential and emerging business opportunities within the Poro Point Freeport Zone (PPFZ), highlighting its strategic location, growing infrastructure, and investment-ready environment.

The Poro Point Freeport Zone used to house the former Wallace Air Station. The enactment of Republic Act 7227 (Bases Conversion and Development Act) on March 19, 1992 and Proclamation No. 216 on July 27, 1993 effectively transferred the stewardship of the Freeport to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) to facilitate its conversion into a productive economic growth center.
