AS the Philippine British Business Council (PBBC) moves toward its 30th anniversary under its new London chairman, Joseph Miro, the background for the further development of bilateral trade and direct investment opportunities for both countries has never been stronger.

In 2024, it welcomed Gabriella Tuason Quimson and Stephen Phillips, among others, as members of the PBBC London. Quimson is a governance and anti-corruption specialist. Philips was appointed senior adviser at BDO Unibank Inc. in January 2024 after a long career focused on cross-border trade, investment and finance in Asia.
