DMAP Unveils DigiCon 2026 Interoperability: Welcome to the Age of Collaboration

 


The Digital Marketing Association of the Philippines (DMAP) has officially unveiled Digicon 2026, themed Interoperability: Welcome to the Age of Collaboration. Celebrating its 11th year as the country’s premier gathering for innovators, marketers, and tech leaders, DigiCon returns to the Grand Ballroom of the Manila Marriott Hotel on October 15–16 with its most inclusive lineup yet.

The Theme: Interoperability as a Competitive Advantage

“We are entering a new era, an age where progress is powered by coming together,” said Raymund Sison, Co-Chair of DigiCon 2026. “The future will not be built in silos. It will not belong to those who work alone. It will be shaped by connections, synergies, and ecosystems of collaboration where ideas, technologies, and communities converge to create impact far greater than the sum of their parts.” 


Interoperability isn’t a technical concept but a mandate. In a landscape fragmented by platforms, disciplines, and silos, DigiCon 2026 argues that progress only happens between people and technology, creators and AI, government and industry, local and global. The theme is both a provocation and an invitation as no brand, platform, or industry succeeds alone. 

“DigiCon has always been about what’s next,” said Shayne Madamba, Co-Chair of DigiCon 2026. “In 2026, what’s next is working together across disciplines, across industries, and across technology.”


What’s New in 2026

DigiCon 2026 introduces the full 2026 Committee and a conference designed to be bigger, louder, and more impactful than any edition before.

In photo: Co-chairing this year’s edition are Raymund Sison of Lennon Group and Shayne Madamba of IXM, supported by Dale Lopez of Tony &, Director for Creative & Experience; Alan Fontanilla (The Pod Network) and Pam Sulit (Splash) leading Partnerships & Sponsorships; and Mori Rodriguez (EON) as Director for Publicity. Five track leads round out the lineup:Immersive led by Denise Haak (RS2 APAC) , Interactive  by Pat Del Castillo (Viber), Innovation led Gino Nacianceno (Cult Tech), Integrated led by Jordan Santos (Publicis JimenezBasic), and Impact led by Shayne Madamda (IXM).

This year, DMAP DIGICON is pioneering DigiconX which are little Digicon pop-ups leading to Digicon 2026. Leading DigiconX are by Brian Yap (RGC) and Nikki Sunga (BBDO). Meanwhile, Kate Bitara serves as Co-Chair Support and Gina Torre is the Project Manager for DigiCon 2026.

“I’m excited about DigiCon 2026 because our future isn’t just about better technology, it’s about better connections,” said Miko David, DMAP President. “When AI, platforms, agencies, brands, and creators work together, innovation scales. That is what DMAP exists to do: connect the ecosystem and turn collaboration into meaningful progress for the industry.”

Early Access and Sponsorship Opportunities

DigiCon 2026 is officially open for partnerships, sponsorships, and speaker submissions across the tech, media, data, and creative sectors. For more information including ticket inquiries and reservations, interested participants may send their inquiries via email to digicon@futureproof.ph

Early bird registration is now available in very limited slots, offering 50% off for DMAP members and 30% off for non-members. These special rates are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and are available only until allocated slots are filled.

Experience Smartwatch-Level Features at a Band Price Point with the HUAWEI Band 11 Series—Coming March 3

HUAWEI, the no. 1 smart wearable brand, introduces powerful smartwatch-level features at a band price point with the HUAWEI Band 11 and HUAWEI Band 11 Pro. Designed to feel almost invisible on the wrist, they deliver a new kind of smart wearable: one that blends ultra-light comfort with smartwatch-level capability, without demanding attention or effort from the user.

Built for modern routines that move from desk to workout to rest, the HUAWEI Band 11 Series sets a new standard for all-day wear. Its refined form proves that powerful technology doesn’t need to feel bulky.

 

Invisible Comfort with All-Day Wearability

Experience true all-day wearability with the HUAWEI Band 11 Series, the thinnest band in the market. It has an 8.99 mm profile—about as thin as four one-peso coins—and a featherlight weight that is as light as 16 grams and a maximum of 18 grams. The band is designed to sit so comfortably on the wrist that it feels almost invisible, adapting effortlessly to every moment of your day, 24/7.

 

Despite its slim form, the HUAWEI Band 11 Series features a striking 1.62-inch AMOLED display that’s 27% larger than its predecessor. Enhanced widgets and a refined UI layout make information clearer and easier to navigate at a glance. This means post-workout stats, sleep charts, and heart rate trends are more readable, notifications are less cramped, and you don’t need to scroll endlessly to get the insights you need. With brightness reaching up to 2,000 nits, your stats remain easy to read, even under harsh outdoor sunlight.

 

Paired with soft, skin-friendly, and sweat-resistant straps and quick-release strap options, the HUAWEI Band 11 Series is designed for continuous comfort and a barely-there feel.

 

Phone-Free Movement with Smartwatch-Level Performance


Built for users who move with intention, the HUAWEI Band 11 Series proves that a thin and light wearable can deliver pro-level performance. With support for over 100 sports modes and precise and accurate GPS, users can leave their phones behind while still tracking accurate routes, pace, and distance during runs, cycling sessions, and outdoor workouts. The AI Running Plan adds structure through performance prediction and training index insights, guiding users on how hard to push and when to recover. Meanwhile, the auto-detect function automatically recognizes your movement patterns and records your data as you exercise.

 

The HUAWEI Band 11 Pro comes with exclusive features that further elevate the band experience. Equipped with Independent GPS (GNSS), it uses a built-in antenna that accurately tracks the users’ outdoor routes. Runners can take precision to the next level with Track Run Mode, which allows lane selection for stadium-level accuracy and automatic correction of GPS drift. Wrist-based Running Posture Analysis provides insight into biomechanics, such as ground contact time and vertical oscillation, to help you refine form and reduce injury risk. Auto-detect and auto-pause functions further refine your data by ensuring rest time doesn’t skew performance results.

 

Beyond running, the all-in-one fitness companion supports most sports—from open-water swimming to recovery-focused sessions. Switch between numerous sports or track a full training week. The HUAWEI Band 11 Series delivers reliable, data-driven insights without adding bulk, friction, or dependence on your phone.

 

Wellness That Works Quietly in the Background



The HUAWEI Band 11 Series also delivers a deeper, more meaningful approach to sleep. Powered by upgraded sleep tracking, the band monitors overnight rest with wrist-based sleep breathing awareness, intuitive sleep Gantt charts, and nap summaries that assess whether daytime naps are helping or hindering recovery.

 

By tracking sleep patterns continuously and quietly through the night, it helps users understand how rest, stress, and recovery connect without requiring extra effort or constant check-ins.

 

The HUAWEI Band 11 Series expands wellness tracking to include all-day Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and CE-certified Pulse Wave Arrhythmia Analysis. These features offer broader insights into how the body responds to stress and recovers over time. They work passively in the background, delivering gentle alerts and easy-to-read summaries that inform users of their overall heart health.

 

HUAWEI Band 11 Series’ wellbeing features extend beyond the physical with Emotional Wellbeing 2.0, which translates daily stress and mood into 12 emotional categories for a more intuitive check-in. The device also thoughtfully integrated women’s health tracking with a clean monthly calendar view that makes cycle tracking easier to manage and understand.

 

Zero Anxiety Living, Powered to Keep Up

 

The HUAWEI Band 11 Series is built for days that don’t slow down and weekends that stretch even further. Even with advanced features, HUAWEI didn’t compromise on battery power. Thanks to its new high-silicon battery technology, the band stays reliably active for up to 14 days. When it’s time to recharge, a quick recharge gets it back to full, powering the user for their next active adventure, long workweeks, spontaneous road trips, or weekend getaways without packing a charger.

 

Beyond endurance, the HUAWEI Band 11 Series supports a seamless lifestyle that keeps everyday routines moving smoothly, even when your phone is tucked inside your pocket.. A quick coffee stop run becomes just as effortless with GCash Watch Pay, which allows QR payments on the go. Smart notifications, quick replies, and remote camera shutter features further enhance daily productivity—whether you’re on Android or iOS.

 

A smarter, lighter, and more intuitive fitness tracking experience is arriving in the Philippines soon. Stay tuned for the HUAWEI Band 11 and HUAWEI Band 11 Pro, and visit the HUAWEI Online Store (HUAWEI Band 11), HUAWEI Online Store (HUAWEI Band 11 Pro), Shopee, Lazada, or TikTok and be among the first to discover a smarter and lighter way to move, rest, and recharge right from your wrist.
