The program, running from May to November 2024, includes online sessions and a one-week onsite module in Sweden. It brings together 100 top business leaders worldwide to learn about the best corporate practices in sustainability from Swedish experts.
The program’s focus on sustainability aligns with the global shift towards greener and more responsible business practices, making it a crucial platform for the Philippines to showcase its commitment to sustainable development.
The Filipino executives in the program are:
Ginggay Hontiveros-Malvar, Aboitiz Group First Vice President, Chief Reputation and Sustainability Officer
Maita Villanueva, Aboitiz InfraCapital Head for Transformation and Strategy
Abby Bonita, SM Prime Holdings Assistant Vice President for Sustainability
Stephanie Orlino, PLDT & Smart Assistant Vice President and Head of Stakeholder Management

During the meeting with H.E. Ambassador Maria Lumen B. Isleta, the executives discussed the importance of enhanced engagement with global leaders and learning from Sweden’s exemplary best practices, with the aim of sharing and implementing insights on sustainability in their respective organizations.
With more business organizations worldwide adopting environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, the participation of Filipino executives in the SI Global Executive Programme demonstrates the Philippines’ proactive approach to integrating sustainable practices into core business strategies, ensuring long-term economic resilience and social responsibility.
“As the global business landscape continues to evolve, initiatives like the SI Global Executive Programme are positioned to play a critical role in shaping the future of leadership and collaborating with talent from the global business community,” Hontiveros-Malvar said.
