Championing LGBTQIA+ contribution in Philippine business

Connecting, empowering, and accelerating LGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs, professionals, and inclusive businesses across the Philippines.

Through partnerships, market access, capacity-building, and advocacy, we help create an economy where diversity drives innovation. 

Where every Entrepreneur

has the opportunity to thrive, win, and inspire others.

Where opportunities are moved forward

We build connections, create opportunities, and champion LGBTQIA+ economic participation across the Philippines.

We get there together

We bring together entrepreneurs, founders, MSMEs, corporate allies, professionals, and advocates who believe that inclusive business ecosystems create stronger communities and better economic outcomes.

PLCC is more than an advocacy. It has allowed me to broaden my purpose, share my talents, and forge new connections—with some colleagues becoming my dearest friends—ultimately for the economic empowerment of LGBTQIA+ people.
