Celebrating educators, empowering students, and shaping the future of design
The future of Filipino creativity just got brighter! Globe recently took part in the International Design Conference (IDC) 2025 as a co-presenter, championing innovation and education in one inspiring event that brought together the country’s brightest design students, mentors, and creative leaders.
In collaboration with the Department of Trade and Industry’s Design Center, IDC 2025 became a platform where academic learning meets real-world experience. For Globe, this partnership wasn’t just about design—it was about empowering the next generation of Filipino creatives to thrive in a fast-evolving digital landscape.
Spotlight on creative talent and inspiring mentorship
One of the highlights of Globe’s participation was an exclusive session with world-renowned author and speaker Joe Pine, attended by 76 top students from prestigious design schools across the Philippines. The event celebrated not only the talents of these emerging creatives but also the educators who helped shape their journey.
In celebration of Teachers’ Month, Globe honored the mentors who play a vital role in nurturing the next wave of designers, innovators, and storytellers. Their guidance and dedication are the foundation of a strong, future-ready creative economy.
Globe’s Director of B2B Marketing, Jonathan Cristobal, shared, “This partnership reflects our belief that creativity thrives when students and educators are equally empowered. Through our work with DTI’s Design Center, we’re building a future-ready education ecosystem where innovation, mentorship, and opportunity are accessible to all.”
Globe’s commitment to a future-ready creative ecosystem
