Entrepreneurship in the Philippines?

Business Savvy
June 5, 2012 by Peter Economy

By the time your read this post, I will be in the middle of a trip to Cebu City in the Philippines. I'm headed there with a client to do research for a book project. I have never been to the Philippines, and I am really looking forward to seeing what the current state of entrepreneurship is there. I fully expect to immerse myself in street vendors (and food), local shops of all sizes and kinds, and other sorts of enterprises. I plan to interview as many of the business owners as I can to get a feel for what's going on in this vibrant country.

From what I hear, it's the beginning of the monsoon season, and we can expect rain most every day, which should make my research even more interesting.

I'll provide a full report when I return.
