917Ventures Dives Into Generative AI Innovations
917Ventures, the corporate venture builder of the Globe Group, is diving deep into the world of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The company believes that generative AI holds the potential to revolutionize how people and organizations create, innovate, and operate—making processes more efficient, personalized, and forward thinking.
“We are building generative AI products to strengthen our tech capabilities. For 917Ventures, the goal is to really strengthen our telco-to-techco strategy and to build the next generation of great companies in the country by maximizing all of the assets of the Globe Group,” said 917Ventures Managing Director Vince Yamat.
917Ventures keeps an impressive track record in building and supporting entrepreneurs, having vetted over 500 ideas and launched 26 ventures. For the rest of the year, it will continue to scale its digital health product, KonsultaMD. It is bullish on business-to-business Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) to enable Filipino micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs).
In addition, the company is looking at several climate tech initiatives, such as the rollout of Gogoro’s smart scooters and battery-swapping technology, in line with its sustainability commitment.
With its strategic move into generative AI, coupled with its ongoing initiatives in various sectors, 917Ventures continues to solidify its position as a leader in technological innovation and entrepreneurship.
