Aboitiz Equity Ventures leads the group's transformation into a techglomerate

Building on a legacy that spans over a century, the Aboitiz Group is charting the next chapter of its evolution to become the Philippines' first techglomerate.

At the center of this evolution is Aboitiz Equity Ventures, Inc. (AEV) — the Group’s strategic portfolio manager responsible for orchestrating transformation across the ecosystem. From its Cebu roots in abaca and shipping, the Group has grown into one of the country's most diversified conglomerates, and AEV now leads the next phase: shaping a technology-enabled, sustainability-driven organization ready for the digital economy.

AEV drives value creation by financing innovation, enabling synergy among business units, strengthening governance, and steering long-term investments toward tech-powered and socially inclusive growth. Its role is to ensure that transformation is enterprise-wide — aligning platforms, data, talent, and stakeholder priorities so that progress in one area accelerates progress across all.

“The Great Transformation is about turning a century of legacy into a techglomerate built for the future,” said Sabin Aboitiz, President and CEO of the Aboitiz Group. “It is how we ensure that Aboitiz continues to grow with purpose, scale with intelligence, and lead with innovation in the decades ahead.”

In 2025, this shift moves from planning to scaling as AEV and its companies deploy innovations reshaping how Filipinos access energy, mobility, housing, food, and financial services — advancing beyond a traditional conglomerate toward an integrated techglomerate that delivers meaningful impact for communities and the nation.
