Herbalife Philippines Inspires Young Entrepreneurs at Next Gen Opportunity Meeting
With more than half of Filipino Gen Z dreaming of starting their own businesses, the future of entrepreneurship in the Philippines looks promising—but passion needs the right guidance and support to grow. That’s why Herbalife Philippines hosted the Next Gen Opportunity Meeting, an immersive summit designed to empower young entrepreneurs through wellness, mentorship, and real-life success stories.
Bringing together nearly 500 aspiring entrepreneurs, young professionals, and Herbalife distributors, the event provided a space where learning, networking, and inspiration blended seamlessly to help participants take bold steps toward building their own ventures.
Blending Wellness, Mentorship, and Community
Unlike traditional business conferences, the summit integrated wellness activities, skill-building sessions, and personal storytelling. This unique approach encouraged participants to reflect on their journeys, gain practical tools, and connect with a supportive community.
Allan Domingo, General Manager of Herbalife Philippines, explained the company’s vision for the event, “We want young entrepreneurs to have a space where they can really grow and learn to take action. By combining mentorship, wellness, and a community that supports them, we help them turn their ideas into real opportunities and build the kind of success that lasts.”
He also highlighted Herbalife’s commitment to equipping its independent distributors with expert-led training on nutrition and health, ensuring they can confidently guide customers and thrive in business.
Gen Z Perspectives on Growth and Connection
Gen Z marketing strategist and entrepreneur Patricia Germentil emphasized the importance of authentic connections in building a lasting business, “Likes are just surface level. Real growth comes from building a community that lasts. Your day ones aren’t just followers—they’re the ones who believe in you and support your journey from the start.”
She added that customers resonate more with purpose-driven experiences than with products alone, stressing the value of immersive engagement when building a brand.
Lessons from Personal Journeys
The summit featured Joyce Pring and Juancho Triviño, both television personalities and fitness advocates, in a live podcast-style discussion. They shared practical advice on balancing life and entrepreneurship—Pring underscoring the importance of self-care, and Triviño pointing to discipline and daily consistency as the real drivers of long-term success.
Herbalife triathlete, teacher, and mother Ines Santiago also inspired attendees with her personal story. What started as a 10-minute stress-relief jog grew into long-distance triathlons and a role as a wellness ambassador. She shared, “Adversity pushes you to do better, to live your best life, and to be your best self.”
Her journey highlighted how wellness routines can build the resilience and mindset needed to succeed in entrepreneurship.
Building the Next Generation of Leaders
With nearly 500 attendees, the Next Gen Opportunity Meeting wasn’t just about learning—it was about community building. By combining personal development, entrepreneurial training, and wellness, Herbalife Philippines created a space where young entrepreneurs could be inspired, gain skills, and build networks that last.
Herbalife Philippines’ Next Gen Opportunity Meeting proves that the future of business in the country lies in creating holistic, community-driven experiences that empower young Filipinos to pursue their dreams. With the right blend of mentorship, wellness, and resilience, today’s Gen Z entrepreneurs are well on their way to shaping tomorrow’s economy.
