Microsoft general manager Karrie Capellan-Ilagan and PLM president Artemio G. Tuquero are shown in a ceremonial signing for an understanding to usher in new benefits and expanded areas of mutual cooperation between the development partners.
Commencing on 30 July 2014 when the MOU was originally signed, benefits from the engagement include, among others, the provisioning of industry courseware for students; development trainings to capacitate the faculty and PLM's Microsoft student partners on current technology trends; free access to DreamSpark Premium & BizSpark Technopreneurship academic tools worth millions of pesos.
