MANILA, PHILIPPINES – In celebration of International Women’s Month, Globe reinforced its commitment to uplift women through its support for the 2025 She Talks Asia Summit, a premier platform for inspiring discourse on female leadership, inclusivity, and courage.
Held on March 15, 2025 at The Globe Tower in BGC, the Summit, themed “Brave Over Perfect,” encouraged women to overcome self-doubt, take bold risks, and step confidently into their power.
Globe’s collaboration with She Talks Asia aligns with its Go Forward Together advocacy, which highlights the evolving roles of women in families, workplaces, and communities.
“At the center of everything we do is our customer. The point and purpose of every service, innovation, and partnership we pursue is to help every Filipino confidently create the life they want,” said Roche Vandenberghe, Chief Marketing Officer, Globe. “Women play a key role in shaping families— both traditional and found— so it is essential to provide them with platforms like the She Talks Asia Summit where they can share their experiences, gain strength, and connect with others.”
The Summit, led by She Talks Asia Co-Founders Lynn Pinugu, Iza Calzado and Globe ambassador Bianca Gonzalez, tackled a range of topics from finance to self-worth, to resilience and longevity.
Award-winning marine conservationist Anna Oposa also took the stage to share her journey of overcoming obsessive perfectionism.
Meanwhile, beauty editor and content creator Belle Rodolfo, Olympic gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz, and wellness advocate and international author Anca Griffiths joined the panel discussion on “Overcoming the Fear of an Expiration Date,” while lifestyle journalist Stephanie Zubiri led the workshop session “Ignite Your Inner Light.”
With digital connectivity now a necessity, Globe empowers women through technology by providing reliable access to opportunities in remote work, online businesses, and digital learning.
Globe supports women’s inclusion in leadership and economic opportunities, recognizing their significant impact on driving progress. While the Philippines outperforms global averages with 48% female leadership representation and a smaller gender wage gap, Globe continues to push for greater equity through its numerous initiatives.
