THE City of Manila and Microsoft recently partnered to drive innovation and accelerate digital transformation in the Philippine capital city, potentially empowering more than two million citizens for the digital age.

'Our collaboration with Microsoft, a global leader in software, education, enterprise, digital and cloud technologies, accelerates our ambitions to build a 21st century economy that lifts up our poor, improves job opportunities for our middle class, enhances how the city government of Manila works internally and improves how we will deliver services externally, and enhances our overall business and investment-friendly attractiveness, especially as we seek to recover from the worst of the Covid-19 pandemic,' said Mayor Francisco 'Isko Moreno' Domagoso.
