Juan Kabayan | MANILA, Philippines — As the Philippines celebrates National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Globe Business takes a bold step forward in the nation’s digital transformation journey with the relaunch of its flagship thought leadership platform, “Technically Speaking.”
Now presented in a fresh, interactive podcast format, the series underscores Globe Business’s renewed commitment to helping enterprises strengthen cybersecurity, build digital resilience, and future-proof their operations in an era defined by innovation and disruption.
Empowering Businesses to Transform Securely
In today’s hyperconnected digital economy, cyber risks are evolving faster than ever. According to industry projections, the Philippine ICT market is expected to reach USD 45.67 billion by 2029, yet only 6% of local enterprises have achieved mature cybersecurity systems. This gap exposes organizations to increasing threats such as phishing, ransomware, and data breaches, which can cripple business operations and erode customer trust.
Recognizing this growing challenge, Globe Business is calling on organizations to see cybersecurity not as a cost, but as a competitive advantage. Through the “Technically Speaking” series, the company is empowering business leaders to transform securely and lead confidently in the digital age.
“The reality is that digital growth without cybersecurity is unsustainable,” said Marlon Cruz, AVP for Consulting & Architecture at Globe Business and host of the series. “Our goal is to equip leaders not just with knowledge, but with a clear roadmap for resilience. By integrating security from the start, enterprises can pursue innovation with confidence, knowing they are prepared for the threats of tomorrow.”
A Podcast Designed for Business Leaders
Moving from traditional webinars to an on-demand podcast format, “Technically Speaking” gives executives easier access to expert insights — anytime, anywhere. This format allows for deeper, more relatable discussions that fit into the demanding schedules of C-suite leaders, IT heads, and business strategists.
At the heart of the series is the Business Solutions Consulting team, led by Cruz. His group focuses on helping organizations craft specialized strategies in cloud modernization, data analytics, enterprise AI governance, and integrated cybersecurity. Every episode is a reflection of Globe Business’s hands-on approach to solutions architecture and digital transformation consulting.
Building a More Resilient Digital Philippines
For KD Dizon, Head of Globe Business, the new season of “Technically Speaking” is not just an educational platform — it’s a movement toward nationwide digital resilience.
“Our commitment to our partners is to serve as a strategic guide on their journey, fueled by our continuous learning from the field,” said Dizon. “This new podcast format is a direct reflection of that dedication, ensuring we deliver meaningful insights and build a more resilient digital Philippines, one enterprise at a time.”
A Roadmap to Resilient Digital Transformation
The new season of “Technically Speaking” launched on October 7 with an episode on Data Analytics, showcasing how strong data foundations and integrated security drive smarter business decisions.
Upcoming sessions include:
- Integrated Cyber Resilience (October 16) – Strategies to protect trust, ensure business continuity, and recover from cyberattacks.
