AI and innovation are thriving in Manila, and local builders are leading the way! ⚡️

Last March 5, 2026, Gobi Partners co-hosted the first-ever Qwen AI Meetup in Manila, where hundreds of developers and founders gathered to connect, learn, and build. The evening was a clear signal of how much is already happening in the Philippine AI community.

Partner Carlo Chen-Delantar opened the event, speaking about the importance of building ecosystems that connect local Filipino talent to global AI platforms and opportunities.

The conversations happening in rooms like this are exactly what the next wave of Philippine tech is going to be built on.

Speakers like Kola Lyu of Alibaba Cloud International, JV Roig of Kamiwaza AI, Andrew Cua of SnapSpend, and Emil Capino of Digital Artifact Solutions shared about the real-world enterprise agentic applications of Qwen and what it actually takes to deploy AI in production.

Open-source AI isn’t just about models, it’s about community.

We’re excited to share that Gobi Partners is partnering with Alibaba Cloud on the 1st Qwen Meetup in Manila, bringing together Philippine-based builders exploring what LLMs like Qwen can do for our communities, languages, and industries.

This is a casual evening built for real conversations and hands-on learning, not a conference, not a sales pitch.

Expect:
• Hands-on time with Qwen
• Lightning shares from local developers (interested in presenting? DM us!)
• Snacks, drinks, and authentic networking with fellow PH builders

If you work in tech, AI, or data — or you’re simply curious about practical open-source AI — come as you are. 🙌
