Curious about startups?
Whether you're a student still exploring, a founder figuring things out, or an operator building what's next, NextGEN Cebu is for you.
Join us for NextGEN Cebu at Asmara Urban Resort & Lifestyle Village, in partnership with Sip & Scale and the Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI) under Cebu Business Month 2026. An afternoon of real entrepreneurial stories, honest conversations, and genuine connections with the people building, growing, and reinventing business in Cebu.
This gathering brings together young founders, next-gen family business leaders, startup builders, students, young professionals, and members of Cebu's wider community. Whether you’re still exploring ideas, already working on a project, or just curious about the startup ecosystem, you’ll find people here who share that same drive.
Expect open conversations, and new connections with both students and founders who are figuring things out and building along the way.
