Active and aspiring entrepreneurs from Pampanga and Iloilo received a boost from the back-to-back mentoring events organized by Go Negosyo last June 7 and 8, 2025 when its popular mall-based entrepreneurship mentoring event 3M on Wheels visited the two provinces over the weekend. “This reflects our commitment to reach as many MSMEs as we can through our nationwide entrepreneurship mentoring,” said Go Negosyo founder Joey Concepcion.

Last June 7, volunteers from Go Negosyo’s pool of entrepreneurship mentors based in Luzon gave business advice and coaching to nearly 400 Pampanga-based MSMEs. The participants lined up early at SM City Clark, where they availed themselves of free mentoring, had a chance to win select prizes, and visited booths offering business services and capital linkages. They were welcomed by Pampanga Chamber of Commerce and Industry president Atty. Paulino Yusi and CDO Foodsphere President and CEO Jerome Ong, and later given pointers in using content creation to promote their businesses by Pampanga-based entrepreneur Bridget Cortez, the founder and owner of Eyeconic.

The next day, June 8, Go Negosyo traveled to Iloilo City to mount 3M on Wheels for the MSMEs of the province during the 32^nd PTAA Travel Tour Expo, organized by the Philippine Travel Agencies Association (PTAA). Active and aspiring entrepreneurs from the city and neighboring towns and municipalities in this part of the Western Visayas traveled to the Iloilo Convention Center in Mandurriao to receive free mentoring from Go Negosyo mentors.

PTAA Board member and Jeron Travel President Chal Lontoc Del Rosario played host, while Travel Trade Expo Chair and President Evangeline Tankiang-Manotok welcomed the participants to the event. Successful Iloilo entrepreneurs featured in an informative forum on how to leverage digital marketing to promote brands with a regional identity, including Jose Gerardo Guadarrama of The Original Biscocho Haus, John Patrick Guillergan of Netong’s Original Special La Paz Batchoy, and content creator Keilani Caresse Baldisimo, aka The Local Travel Girl.
