Whiskey business: A masterclass in malt and digital transformation
IN the fast-paced world of information technology and digital transformation, it pays for all the leaders behind tech-led enterprises to take it slow after a long, tiring day. And what better way to wind down than savoring the finest whiskeys in existence?
For these tech moguls, Globe Business hosted its first-ever “Whiskey Business,” a masterclass in malt, laced with a grand prix in ICT solutions. A speakeasythemed social event, sponsored by Zoom, Whiskey Business raised a toast to CIOS and innovation enablers to empower them with the best of ICT solutions as they propel their enterprises forward.
The whiskey tasting segment was opened by Tania Gil-padilla, vice president for enterprise sales for Globe Business, who shared, “The pandemic has driven digital transformation in the past couple of years, and CIOS have become instrumental in leading their organizations through those times. But this night is a celebration of the successes amid the challenging times, and a chance to take a break from online platforms and make more meaningful connections in person.”
It was all fun, laughter, and a bit of friendly competition done through a quick round of games where Globe Business introduced their ICT solutions as they dove deeper into tasting whiskey notes. Francis Hasegawa, one of Manila’s best whiskey connoisseurs, showcased the unique taste of the whiskey flights with that of the distinctive attributes of Globe’s partners, Zoom, Cascadeo, Genesys and Third Pillar.
“The demands of businesses and their customers have shifted so much that we constantly need to innovate and introduce best-in-class ICT solutions where they are needed. Our objective remains clear—to be the top provider and best partner in bringing companies to the future by going beyond transactional conversations, seeking stronger partnerships, and accompanying them in their digital transformation journey,” shared Raymond Policarpio, vice president for product management and marketing at Globe Business, Enterprise Group.
