Co-sponsored by GHL Central, HighLevel, HL Pro Tools, and Salig AI (organizing), the event was a testament to the strength of the HighLevel community and its commitment to empowering businesses through AI and automation.
Held in Manila, this was the first-ever HighLevel meetup in Asia, setting a new benchmark for business networking and learning. Attendees traveled from across the Philippines and even from Thailand, Pakistan, and Dubai to experience a full day of insights, connections, and growth opportunities.
With live music, an open bar, and a 350-dish international buffet, the event delivered not just knowledge but also an unforgettable community experience. From the moment the doors opened at 10 AM, the excitement was clear—people were lining up early, eager to be part of something bigger.
Media Recognition, Press Conference, and Digital Billboards
A key moment of the HighLevel Manila Meetup was the press conference, which brought together traditional and online media to highlight the significance of AI and automation in the Philippines. With representatives from major news outlets and digital media, the discussion focused on how HighLevel and AI-driven tools are reshaping businesses, creating new opportunities, and setting the stage for future growth.
Government officials, business leaders, and industry pioneers addressed the press, emphasizing the impact of automation on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and how technology is driving economic transformation.
In addition to extensive media coverage, digital billboards across Manila’s downtown area showcased the event and its keynote speakers. These billboards helped drive awareness, capturing the attention of thousands and reinforcing the importance of AI and automation in the evolving business landscape.
