HighLevel Finally Says Yes To The Philippines: Historic Summit Supports DICT’s 8 Million Digital Jobs Vision

HL Accelerator Secures Landmark Partnership for HL Pilipinas
1st Anniversary Summit

After persistent advocacy from the Filipino HighLevel
community, HighLevel Inc has finally agreed to officially support and sponsor
one of the Philippines’ digital workforce development initiatives. The HL
Pilipinas 1st Anniversary Summit, happening this Sunday, August 10, represents
a breakthrough moment for Filipino freelancers and the nation’s digital economy
goals.

Strategic Government Partnership Drives National Impact

Co-organized by the Department of Information and
Communications Technology (DICT) through its ICT Industry Development Bureau
(IIDB) and HL Accelerator, led by Jay-Cee “Cece” Tan and Diana “Dea”
Panganiban, the summit is held in collaboration with the Quezon City Local
Government. It supports the EDGE PH Program (Empowering Digital Workers of the
Gig Industry Ecosystem) and aligns with DICT’s “8 Million Digital Jobs by 2028”
roadmap—making the summit a key driver for national digital transformation.

 With 1,000 to 1,500 freelancers, digital workers, and SaaS
agency builders expected to attend, the event showcases how grassroots
innovation is fueling inclusive job creation and digital upskilling.

 One Year of Remarkable Growth

Since its 2024 launch, HL Pilipinas has emerged as one of
the largest Filipino-led communities certifying professionals in CRM
automation, SaaS operations, and remote agency workflows. Results are striking:
90% of learners land clients within 30 days, and 68% double their income
through training and mentorship. The program has empowered professionals from
non-technical and underserved backgrounds to access global digital
opportunities—closely aligned with DICT’s inclusive development vision.

 Global Recognition Meets Local Expertise

HighLevel Inc has grown rapidly from USD 1 million revenue
in 2020 to USD 82.7 million in 2024, serving over two million businesses
globally. Filipino professionals now play a major role in automation, CRM
support, and funnel building—positioning the country as a global talent hub.

The summit features top speakers including Alicia Pagano
(Head of Certification, HighLevel Inc), who will present the official HighLevel
Certified Admin Program. Partners HL Pro Tools and Level Up Marketplace will
share monetization strategies and app development insights through Mario
Aldayuz and Rupert Samuel.

 Live Job Matching and Certification Opportunities

Attendees can access live job-matching sessions with
opportunities in Australia, the US, and UK. On-site certification and
mentorship programs provide direct pathways to higher-paying roles.

International speakers Dakota Routh (Agency Support) and
Arham Abid (GHL Starboys) will share strategies for scaling freelance work into
six-figure agencies. Filipino motivational speaker Chinkee Tan will discuss the
mindset required for long-term success.

Virtual Access Democratizes Opportunity

To ensure nationwide access, the summit offers a virtual
live pass for ₱497, which includes event access, recordings, and the HL
Pilipinas Vault—eight full training modules. Virtual attendees are also
eligible for raffle prizes totaling ₱50,000–₱100,000.

Cultural Pride Meets Cutting-Edge Technology

With a “Modern Filipiniana” theme, the summit blends
Filipino culture with global digital leadership. From traditional ceremonies to
the Best Filipiniana Outfit Showdown, the event honors heritage while driving
future-facing innovation.

Measurable Impact on National Goals

The summit will present data on digital jobs created in the
past 12 months and recognize the first certified HighLevel Admins—reinforcing
DICT’s evidence-based approach to hitting its 2028 digital jobs target.

“This summit proves that with the right tools, support,
and partnerships, Filipino talent can lead in the global digital economy,”
said the HL Accelerator team. “HighLevel finally saying yes to the
Philippines is just the beginning.”
