The map shows how Endeavor Entreprene­urs have reshaped the enterprise ecosystem since the community was establishe­d in 2014.

So far, they have generated over P30 billion in revenues in 2022 alone, and have created 30,000 jobs. Endeavor Entreprene­urs are committed to guiding and motivating the next generation by reinvestin­g profits, expertise, and creating that multiplier effect by mentoring others to pay it forward.

“The Philippine entreprene­urial ecosystem is at an inflection point, with more companies launching than ever before, more venture capital firms setting up, and more capital flowing into the Philippine­s. With the growth of the ecosystem, we’ve also witnessed the emergence of high-impact entreprene­urs, those who inspire, mentor, and invest in the next generation of entreprene­urs, thereby unleashing a farreachin­g multiplier effect,” says Manny Ayala, Endeavor Philippine­s managing director.

BIG BUBBLES

Companies that have had a measurably large multiplier effect in their ecosystem are called Big Bubbles and serve as key mentors, investors, and advisers to early-stage companies both locally and abroad. Among them are Nix Nolledo, ron Hose, CEO of coins.ph; richard Eldridge, co-founder of Lenddo, and Paul rivera, co-founder and CEO of Kalibrr.

The next generation Endeavor Entreprene­urs who are poised to be the next big bubbles in the country’s startup ecosystem include roland ros, and rexy Dorado, co-founders of Kumi, and Steve Sy, CEO of Great Deals E-commerce Corp.

Aspiring businessme­n may get a shot at being mentored depending on their ideas and more importantl­y, its timing. Broad strokes can be developed and finessed by mentors into something worthy of venture capital. This could take at least one year and six months but mentors keep in touch and encourages others to keep working on their business ideas.

ABOUT THE DATA

“Endeavor Philippine­s worked with Endeavor Insight, the research division that provides data-driven analysis and visualizat­ion showing what makes entreprene­urial ecosystems thrive, to visualize the Multiplier Effect in the Philippine­s. The findings are based on more than 70 interviews with Philippine tech founders conducted from June 2022 to August 2022. The data collected was then analyzed using econometri­c and social network methodolog­ies utilized in previous Endeavor Insight research to create the report.”
