ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

BG.png

How can principles of Transparency, Responsibility, Accountability, Fairness, Foresight, Innovation, and Culture (T.R.A.F.F.I.C) create sustainable businesses in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (FIRe)? This is the challenge that the Institute of Corporate Directors (ICD), together with Angkas, seeks to address during the 2020 Corporate Governance Conference (CGCON) on March 26, 2020 in Manila.

 

CGCON 2020 desires to break the unconscious bias between emerging technology companies and disruptors, and the practice of good corporate governance. It also aims to promote stakeholder approach towards long-term value creation among companies that thrive in the various aspects of FIRe. The environment that FIRe creates is one that brings short-term challenges that, without governance intervention, can adversely affect the whole country’s corporate landscape.


 

The conference will provide a platform for stimulating and opening discussions on the following:

 

  • How artificial intelligence and robotics are changing the way information impacts the board

  • How IoT is enhancing the workplace environment, transparency, and efficiency

  • How companies embrace digital transformation

  • How emerging tech companies inculcate and integrate principles of T.R.A.F.F.I.C.

  • How directors evolve and manage expectations of stakeholders in the era of FIRe

  • What are the ethical implications of technological advancement to the business ecosystem

  • Why T.R.A.F.F.I.C. is important for investors

  • How T.R.A.F.F.I.C. can help create long term value to stakeholders

Angkas_Logo.png

Angkas is the first on-demand motorcycle-hailing mobile app platform in the Philippines that matches professional, safe and accountable bikers with users. 

 

Given the worsening traffic in major urban areas in the country, Filipinos require more and better transport options, whether to transport themselves, or to have items delivered. Angkas is an immediate solution to the worsening congestion in the country, giving commuters a safe, viable, and affordable way to beat the traffic. Today, Angkas has over 3 million downloads and has onboarded 27,000 biker-partners to serve Metro Manila and Metro Cebu. Their consistent 99.997% safety record is due to their rigorous vetting and training process, only passing about 30% of all applicants. As a company that utilizes technology at the heart of their services, Angkas has changed the way Filipinos think about inclusive mobility. 

 

Angkas is a co-presenter in CGCON 2020, serving as an example for good governance in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
