ECCP's Defense Committee aims to strengthen the collaboration amongst industry players to share best practices and technologies in promoting national security and enhancing the country’s disaster risk response and management. It also aims to highlight the Philippines' potential as an internationally competitive destination for solutions in security and defense in support to the Philippines vision of a modernized and well-respected armed forces among its peers in Asia, and eventually, in the world.
The Committee will provide a dialogue for industry players and government officials from various agencies, specifically the Department of National Defense (DND) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) along with its three major services such as the Philippine Army, Air Force, and Navy to discuss possible areas of cooperation and exchange of best practices.
In close partnership with government, businesses, civil society, and academia, ECCP passionately works to enhance the business environment for both European and Filipino companies.
