The Department of Trade and Industry’s National Capital Regional Office (DTI-NCRO) is ramping up its support for small businesses at a high-profile health event in Quezon City.
The agency has set up a Negosyo Center booth at the “LAB for All” program, a free medical services initiative spearheaded by First Lady Louise Araneta-Marcos.
Key details:
- Event Date: August 1, 2024
- Location: Risen Garden, Quezon City Hall Compound
The DTI’s presence at the event underscores the government’s push to integrate business support with broader social services. The Negosyo Center booth offers:
- Business Name Registration assistance
- Barangay Micro Business Enterprise (BMBE) Registration support
- Business Advisory Services
This move comes as the Philippines continues to focus on economic recovery and small business growth in the post-pandemic era. The “LAB for All” program, which stands for “Laboratoryo, Konsulta at Gamot para sa Lahat” (Laboratory, Consultation, and Medicine for All), represents a coordinated effort by various government agencies to bring essential services directly to Filipino citizens.
Analysts see this as part of a broader strategy to stimulate local economies by combining health initiatives with business support. The DTI’s participation could signal increased government attention on the intersection of public health and economic development.
