A total of 122 microenter­prise owners from all over Davao Region have already graduated from the Kapatid Mentor Me of the Department of Trade and Industry’s mentorship program.

The Kapatid Mentor Me (KMME) program, which is being implemente­d in partnershi­p with the private sector-led Philippine Center for Entreprene­urship (PCE), has produced another batch of graduates who completed the 10 modules last June and July 2018.

These mentees have been operating their respective businesses for at least a year in order to qualify for the program. By being part of KMME, they attended weekly mentoring sessions since the opening of the program’s 2018 edition in the region in March 2018. Most of this batch’s mentees are engaged in food processing, manufactur­ing and service sectors.

Amid this latest developmen­t, DTI-Davao Regional Director Maria Belenda Q. Ambi expressed her admiration to the new batch of graduates who really committed and dedicated themselves to learn under the program and to scale up.
