IBPAP enters this new chapter after its 2024 milestones, such as generating $38 billion in revenue and 1.82 million jobs.
Moreover, it strengthened education partnerships with TESDA, CHED, and DepEd.
Moving forward, IBPAP must navigate shifting global policies that may impact the industry.
Around 70% of the Philippine IT-BPM industry’s client base originates from the US.
Consequently, the Trump administration’s potential renewal of protectionist policies poses challenges and opportunities.
Trump’s first term slowed offshoring, decreasing industry growth to 2.5% and 3.9% in 2017 and 2018, respectively. In contrast, it was 12.3% in 2016.
As a result, IBPAP must intensify efforts to reposition the Philippines as a global leader in high-value services like banking and digital transformation.
IBPAP President and CEO Jack Madrid emphasized that the industry needs strong, diverse leadership.
“Governance starts at the top. A diverse board is not just about having representation–it is about resilience.”
“The more perspectives we have in scanning the horizon, the better prepared we are for opportunities and challenges.”
“What got us to $38 billion in revenue and 1.82 million jobs may not get us to where we want to be. We must adapt, innovate, and lead the next chapter of our industry’s success.”
