Team Punique Supports Youth Empowerment Through "Timeless: Weaving Business Towards Boundless Art"
Team Punique is honored to support another inspiring youth initiative through "Timeless: Weaving Business Towards Boundless Art", an event organized by the Chamber of Young Business Leaders (CYBL) under the Junior Marketing Association of Bulacan State University (BulSU). Held on December 14, 2023, this event celebrated the intersection of business and art, emphasizing cultural heritage and entrepreneurial innovation.
During the event, Mrs. Jonnah Garcia, a renowned advocate for social entrepreneurship, delivered an insightful lecture on Marketing and Business Development tailored for BulSU college students. Her talk highlighted critical aspects of entrepreneurial success, including:
- Identifying the right market and understanding its unique needs.
- Customizing product and service offerings to address specific market demands.
- Expanding networks and leveraging growth opportunities through collaboration with organizations and the use of online platforms.
Following this inspiring lecture, skilled Punique weavers demonstrated the traditional art of "puni," teaching attendees how to craft basic shapes like butil, isda, and kris palaspas. This hands-on activity not only nurtured creativity but also deepened the participants' appreciation for this heritage art form.
The event culminated with an awarding and recognition ceremony, celebrating the efforts of both participants and organizers in making the event a resounding success.
Serving and collaborating with the youth is at the core of Punique’s advocacy to preserve cultural heritage and promote sustainable livelihoods within our community. We are committed to partnering with more schools and youth organizations to further our mission of fostering creativity, entrepreneurship, and cultural pride.
A heartfelt thank you and congratulations to the talented organizers and officers of the Chamber of Young Business Leaders (CYBL) for their dedication and success in hosting this meaningful event. We look forward to more opportunities to inspire and empower the next generation!
