The forum aims to provide the people of Cebu and the Visayas, especially the business community, a chance to meet and hear the presidential candidates and know their positions on issues related to the economy, education, social services, governance, and environment.

Around a thousand representatives from the business community, academe, youth, media and the labor sector are expected to attend. Select political analysts from the state and private universities in Cebu will also be part of the audience.

The forum will be covered live by Sky Cable and will be aired on block time by the ABS-CBN network in Visayas and Mindanao. ABS-CBN’s TV Patrol and radio station DYAB will also cover the event live and will run a text voting/survey and mock election during the forum.

This event is brought to us by the three major business Chambers in Cebu Province namely, Cebu Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI), Mandaue Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) and the Cebu Business Club (CBC).
