THE Cebu Business Month (CBM) Entrepreneurship Summit 2023 will be held from August 30 to September 1 at the 38th Park Avenue Showroom in Cebu City. The summit, which is themed "Join us in Designing a Strategic, Resilient, and Sustainable Cebu," will focus on food security and sustainability.
Gretchen Choa, chair of the Cebu Business Months (CBM) Entrepreneurship Summit, and co-chair Niko Basubas, announced that the upcoming event will focus on food sustainability, innovation, mentorship, and mental health.
Basubas emphasized that the summit is a chance for businesses to learn from each other and collaborate on solutions to food system challenges. He hopes that businesses will come away from the summit with new ideas and resources that they can use to improve their operations and positively impact the food system.
On day one, the summit will focus on food sustainability and security. Speakers will discuss topics such as sustainable farming practices, food waste reduction, and climate-smart agriculture. They will also explore how to source and share food during calamities, and the role of Community-Based Management (CBM) in food security.
On day two, the summit will focus on innovations and mentorship, especially in finance. Speakers will explore inclusive banking and payment systems and the role of temperature control in food safety. They will also share their experiences in developing and growing successful businesses.
On the summit's last day, speakers will address succession strategies, sustainability, and the vital role of mental health in business. This presents a valuable opportunity for businesses to prioritize mental well-being. As the demands of entrepreneurship rise, it's crucial for business leaders to prioritize their own mental health. The summit will include a discussion led by three advocates of mindfulness and mental fitness.
"We want to create a wave of change," said Choa. "We believe that by working together, we can make a difference in the way we produce, distribute, and consume food."
The CBM Entrepreneurship Summit is a timely and important event. As the world faces increasing challenges to food security, it is more important than ever to find ways to produce and distribute food in a sustainable way. The summit will provide a forum for businesses to learn about the latest innovations in food production and distribution, and to network with other stakeholders who are committed to making a difference.
The summit is also a great opportunity for businesses to learn about mental health. As the demands of running a business increase, it is important for entrepreneurs to take care of their own mental health. The summit will feature a discussion on mental health, led by three advocates of mindfulness and mental fitness.
The CBM Entrepreneurship Summit is a must-attend event for any business that is interested in food sustainability or mental health. The summit will provide businesses with the knowledge and resources they need to succeed in these important areas.
