Being in my line of work at a business newspaper has exposed me to all kinds of events, expo's and trade shows -- from food, fashion, health & wellness; to business matchings, franchising, and bazaars; even toys and collectibles. So is there anything new happening soon? Something relevant and helpful to the economy?
This June 30 to July 2, the World Trade Center in Pasay City will house the 1st International Agriculture and Tourism Expo. The first of its kind in the Philippines, the 3-day expo will bring together world-class experts who will share their time and expertise to the delegates by conducting awareness campaigns and seminars on the latest agricultural and tourism innovations and trends from around the globe.
