A new investment promotion website for Davao City as it opens business globally

The City government of Davao and the Davao Light and Power Co., Inc. have long been partners in the aim of driving a robust economy for the city.

 

With the business opportunities present in Davao, namely in Infrastructure and Connectivity, Tourism, Manufacturing, and Agriculture, it is indeed the best time to invest.

 

Thus, to help Davao City through the Davao City Investment Promotion Center (DCIPC) further promote its economic interests, Davao Light donated a new and improved investment promotion website. The website with the address invest.davaocity.gov.ph was officially launched during the first DavaoInvestment Conference last July 21, 2017at the SMX Convention Center in SM Lanang Premier, DavaoCity.

This newly redesigned website adheres to Global Investment Promotions Best Practices of providing information and relevant content through the internet to local and foreign investors. Built from the ground-up, the website is search engine optimized, and aims to provide quick and easy access to essential information about Davao City such as the Socio-economic Data, News and Investor guides. Interested parties may also contact the DCIPC directly through the Contact Us page.

 

The new website also has an improved look and feel but at the same time has maintained the DavaoCity’s brand, Davao: Life is here.

 

The team of the DCIPC has the full administration of the website being the lead agency in promoting Davao as a viable investment site.

Davao Light is truly honored to be given this opportunity to help Davao City be known in the BusinessCommunity, both local and global, that it is the no. 1 investment destination. We will continue to be part of the city’s rapid urbanization. This endeavor is not only of Davao Light but of the entire Aboitiz’s goal of advancing business and communities.” said Jaime Jose Aboitiz, AboitizPower Distribution Group Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.

The investment promotion website continues the stronger collaboration between the Davao City local government and Davao Light for decades. Way back in 1996, the company partnered with the local government in the implementation of the street lighting program in Davao City. This helped enhanced tourism making by making Davao one of the best-lit cities in the country.

 

The Central 911 was also put up in September 2002 from the idea brought about by both former DavaoLight President, the late Alfonso Y. Aboitiz, and President Rodrigo R. Duterte, who was the Davao CityMayor then. It was created to respond to emergencies and at the same time help curb criminality.

 

As Davao City continues to evolve to a thriving urban city, Davao Light has remained to be its dependable partner. Now, Davao City is part of the region poised as a gateway to the East Asian Growth Area of Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia.


Davao Light, on the other hand, will continue on its mission to distribute electricity that is safe and reliable, at the most reasonable cost.


Clear with its purpose, Davao Light together with the Aboitiz will continue to drive change for a better world.
