It was a weekly session of engaging discussion on how companies across various industries innovate to remain relevant in a competitive, tech-driven landscape.<br \/>\nGlobe invited speakers including ASEAN Business Advisory Council Senior Adviser for ICT Bettina Quimson, Rappler CEO and co-founder Maria Ressa, as well as Makerspace COO Miguel Cervantes.

Genio added this was achieved by providing improved connectivity, maintaining strategic relationships, accelerating capabilities, and improving reach.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Photo-3-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"465\" height=\"310\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Photo-3-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Photo-3-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techbeatph.com\/wproot\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Photo-3-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 465px) 100vw, 465px\" \/><br \/>\nGartner Research Director Jenny Beresford discussed the third wave of enterprise agility, which is driving digital business transformation in established organizations. Beresford pointed out the need for chief information officers to experiment and reform culture and technology in the workplace as traditional business models will not make the cut in the digital era.<br \/>\nThe month-long initiative concluded with the announcement of the grand winner of Idea Jam, a competition aimed at soliciting out-of-the-box ideas among Globe employees to address existing gaps and challenges within the workplace.<br \/>\nOut of the 60 ideas generated among 26 competing teams, a three-member team that came up with a working prototype of an AI-powered IVR System emerged as the grand winner. The system automates the call tree emergency communications process for Globe during a disaster.<br \/>\nNow on its fifth year, the event also served as an avenue for some of Globe Telecom\u2019s partners to showcase new and emerging technologies for the future workplace. Some of these were NEC\u2019s facial recognition system, which makes the process of registration easier and faster; Google Cloud platform, which offers future-proof infrastructure for big data; and Amazon Web Services\u2019 cloud-based intelligent omnichannel solutions, which aim to enhance digital customer engagement.
