Celebrating 25 Years of Excellence in Business Journalism

In a remarkable milestone, Ayala Corp. has renewed its partnership with the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines (EJAP) for the 35th EJAP Business Journalism Awards, celebrating 25 years of dedicated support for the important role of journalism in the business sector. This consistent commitment highlights not only the significance of journalism in the economy but also the strong relationship between media and business.

The Vision for a Stronger Society

At the signing of the agreement on September 3, Ayala's Chief Social Infrastructure Officer, Paolo Borromeo, emphasized the vital role of a trusted press and well-informed citizens in fostering resilient and inclusive societies. "We are proud to continue our partnership with EJAP and to support the journalists whose work helps strengthen public understanding and accountability," he stated. This dedication signals a positive trend towards enhancing societal awareness through credible reporting.

Recognizing Excellence in Reporting

The upcoming awards ceremony not only sheds light on the hard work of journalists but also underlines the importance of accurate business reporting across various sectors like finance, telecommunications, and energy. Ayala Corp. collaborates with numerous businesses, including notable names such as Ayala Land, Globe Telecom, and the Ayala Foundation, demonstrating a collective commitment to recognizing and fostering high standards in business journalism.

A Legacy of Support

The enduring partnership between Ayala Corp. and EJAP speaks volumes about the value placed on quality journalism in the Philippines. “Credible business reporting serves both the market and the public,” noted EJAP president Ted Cordero, emphasizing that the organization's capacity to honor exceptional journalists stems from such invaluable support. The upcoming EJAP Business Journalism Awards on November 6 promises to be a night of recognition for those who tirelessly work to deliver factual and insightful economic coverage.

As society increasingly relies on accurate information for making informed decisions, it is reassuring to witness established institutions like Ayala Corp. championing the cause of business journalism. This partnership is not just about awards; it is a more extensive commitment to empowering journalists and maintaining the integrity of the press in fostering an informed public.
