Salesforce launches startup support program in Philippines
Business World Philippines
|January 21, 2026
US SOFTWARE company Salesforce on Tuesday rolled out its Startup Program in the Philippines, aiming to support local tech startups by giving them access to its products, mentors and global business network.
The program seeks to help Philippine startups build, test and scale technology-based products, particularly those using artificial intelligence (AI), Salesforce said in a statement.
“The Philippines is a dynamic market for technology and innovation, driven by a young, skilled and tech-savvy population,” the company said. “This launch reflects Salesforce’s recognition of the country’s vibrant startup landscape.”
The move comes as the Philippines continues to lag regional peers in global startup rankings. Research firm StartupBlink ranked the country 64 th out of 100 economies in its 2025 Global Startup Ecosystem Index, marking the fourth straight year of decline. The Philippines ranked 52nd in 2021 and slipped steadily in subsequent years.
