We bring business and local governments across the Philippines together by providing up- We will be happy to hear from you.
The Department of Interior and Local Government is introducing an online hub called SparkBiz.ph which brings business and local governments together to generate private investments across the country and boost the capacity of LGUs as drivers of economic growth. Sparkbiz.ph has a section for businesses to search local competitiveness profiles and access local economic and sector news, as well as a
resource hub for LGUs containing LED tools, guides, case studies, training offerings and events. Sparkbiz.ph can aid your local economic development (LED) efforts in three ways:
1. Promote and showcase your LGU as an investment destination by providing you with a dedicated LGU competitiveness profile.
2. Give your local economic development (LED) team access to helpful tools, guides, case studies, training courses and list of funding options.
3. Take part in a community of practice for LED sharing experiences and insights that can benefit your own local programs. We have attached a brief containing more information about sparkbiz.ph for your reference. In support of the National Government’s efforts to create business friendly and competitive LGUs, we are currently gathering competitiveness profiles of LGUs through Sparkbiz.ph. We encourage you to register and add your own LGU profile online: http://sparkbiz.ph/registration. The registration guide can be downloaded here: http://bit.ly/sb-gd01. The sample profile (download at http://bit.ly/sb-smpl) should help you in gathering relevant data prior to online submission. Your LGU’s Provincial/City/Municipal Planning and Development Coordinator (P/C/MPDC) will be best placed to help you in this regard. To begin the process, we hope that you can advise us of the name and email address of your P/C/MPDC. The necessary details and user guide will be sent to him/her directly via email. Please send any clarifications through Ms. Euly Enrique (02-6365847 / [email protected]) or Ms. Tina Abella (0917-5940481 / [email protected]). We look forward to having you at Sparkbiz.ph!
