Market Outlook: The Philippines

As one of Southeast Asia's fastest-growing economies, the Philippines presents a wealth of opportunities for Swedish companies looking to expand. With a rapidly growing middle class, favourable demographics, and significant infrastructure investments, the country is becoming an increasingly important hub for foreign investment.

Over 40 Swedish companies are already capitalising on this dynamic market, focusing on sectors like infrastructure, green energy, retail, and business process outsourcing. The Philippines' strategic location and its ongoing efforts to modernise key sectors make it an attractive destination for businesses aiming to tap into the broader Asian market.

In this session, Johan Lennefalk​, Sweden's Trade Commissioner to the Philippines, will offer valuable insights into the current business climate for Swedish companies in the Philippines.

Business Sweden​ recently conducted a market survey among Swedish firms and key government agencies in the Philippines to identify emerging opportunities. Based on these findings, there is strong potential for more Swedish companies to enter the market, and Mr. Lennefalk looks forward to sharing these opportunities with you.
