On behalf of the Provincial Government of Quezon, the Quezon-Lucena Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Department of Trade and Industry, may we convey our gratitude to all who wish to support and be a part of the Second Quezon Business Conference (2QBC).

This is a major step in reaching your target market as all the sectors of the Province of Quezon will once again converge at the Quezon Convention Center to discuss how the investment climate of the Province may be further enhanced. We are even broadening the range of our participants as we are focusing on improving the capability of our micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises.

The Province of Quezon launched its efforts to attract investments into the Province and strengthen local entrepreneurship via the First Quezon Business Conference held on 25-26 September 2008. Almost two thousand five hundred (2,500) participants took part in this two-day event. This year, we are setting our sights to a greater number. Our intended attendees have a wide range of interests spanning from tourism and service, agriculture, fishery, food production, processing and consumption. They also make up a representative percentage of the consumers from the forty (40) towns and one (1) city of the Province of Quezon. Reaching out to them, through the 2QBC, is much easier as they gather in one place for 2 whole days.

Thank you.
