On October 12, 2026, a Partnership Meeting with Punongbayan & Araullo (P&A) Grant Thornton was conducted online via Microsoft Teams. Hosted by Mr. Diko Bajalla and Ms. Yel Bernaldez from P&A Grant Thorntonโs HR Department, the UPC JPIA Officers attended with much enthusiasm, supported by Organization Adviser, Asst. Prof. Stevenson Yu. ๐
The meeting discussed potential partnership, sponsorships, and support opportunities between the two parties. This opened the discussion for internship prospects and project initiatives to be implemented by the organization with firmโs support. This actively paves the way for UPC JPIA; now in its second year since establishment, this secures partners for the organizationโs growth and widens its corporate reach. ๐คฉ
Indeed, it was a highly productive meeting. UPC JPIA will continue to work behind the scenes in formalizing the partnership. The organization is committed to create paths for our SoM students toward professional and valuable opportunities through partnerships, such as this. ๐ค
We look forward to a fruitful collaboration with P&A Grant Thornton! โญ๏ธ
