​A Philippine Startup Week 2026 Community Side Event
Zero-Ten Park Philippines × QBO Innovation

​Where Founders Connect, Exchange Insights, and Find Their Next Opportunity

​Building a startup takes more than a good idea. It requires customer understanding, experimentation, access to resources, and relationships that help turn challenges into progress.

​Community Wednesday brings founders, aspiring entrepreneurs, startup teams, and ecosystem partners together for a structured day of peer learning, founder support, and purposeful networking.

​Through guided conversations and collaborative activities, participants can share challenges, exchange practical knowledge, discover potential collaborators, and identify actionable next steps for their ventures.

​Ask, Offer, Connect

​Map the needs, resources, and connections within the startup community. Share what you need, offer what you can contribute, and identify opportunities for knowledge exchange, referrals, and collaboration.

​Coworking Mixer

​Participate in guided, topic-based conversations focused on startup challenges, business opportunities, and lessons from the founder journey. Exchange perspectives with people at different stages of building a business.

​Office Hours
