𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞: 𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 — 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗱 ✨

Last January 17–18, the NCAS Auditorium at the University of the Philippines – Los Baños became a gathering ground for some of the brightest minds across the country. Students and educators came together not only to listen and learn from distinguished speakers, but to challenge themselves in competitions that revealed extraordinary talent within our community.

Day 1 sparked the momentum: ideas were exchanged, perspectives were widened, and ambition filled the rooms.

Day 2 carried that energy forward into decisive final rounds and a meaningful awarding ceremony, where dedication met recognition. What began as potential transformed into achievement, proving that excellence thrives when passion and opportunity intersect.

To our speakers, judges, organizers, sponsors, partners, and participants — thank you for making ECONVERGENCE 2026 a two-day celebration of intellect, perseverance, and community.

We look forward to welcoming you back next year. 🧡
