Movement and GeiserMaclang Marketing Communications Inc., shares about Digital Pilipinas and its workstreams zeroing in on the launch of the TrustTech movement with its co-convenors and how this enables consumer protection and MSME empowerment in this fast-growing digital economy during USAID’s Industry Day 2023 at the Ascott Makati
Industry Day is the culminating activity of a 5-day workshop – a workshop on “Emerging Tech Sector Issues in Consumer Protection and Privacy Investigations and Enforcement” – and served as the venue for collaborative dialogue and knowledge sharing among the private sector and government partners on how best to shape consumer experiences and business practices and steer towards a more secure and safer digital economy.
TrustTech is boosted by the pillars of Cybersecurity, GovTech, and RegTech – Cybersecurity protecting our assets, GovTech protecting our government that provides the services, smart nation infrastructure, and the digitalization of the public sector, and RegTech managing regulatory compliances that protect the identity of consumers.
Aside from investment promotions, the said workstreams target one of the most vulnerable sectors to cybercrime – the MSMEs – this is aligned with USAID SPEED’s objective of mobilizing the digital economy for enterprise development and increasing the participation of SMEs in the economy.
