Cheers to the Year: PMI PH 2025 Annual Fellowship in Manila and Cebu

A full house of Project Managers gathered for the 2025 Annual Fellowship at Discovery Suites, Ortigas

Opening Remarks of our PMI PH Chapter President, PMP

The PMI Philippines Chapter wrapped up 2025 with not one, but two unforgettable fellowship nights — the first on November 27 at Discovery Suites Ortigas, followed a week later by the Cebu celebration at Holiday Inn on December 5. Each gathering had its own flavor, but both carried the same spirit: a chance to unwind, laugh, reconnect, and look back on a year filled with hard work and meaningful wins.

Manila: A Night of Recognition and Good Vibes

In Manila, members and volunteers dressed up for an evening that mixed heartfelt appreciation with plenty of fun moments. Committees shared highlights from the year — from successful trainings and new partnerships to chapter projects that pushed boundaries and sparked new ideas.

But beyond the program, Manila’s celebration had something everyone felt: a sense of pride in what the chapter accomplished together. The room was filled with reunions, new introductions, and conversations that reminded everyone why this community thrives — because people show up and lift one another.

Cebu: Branch First-Year Festivities in Full Swing

For Cebu, the celebration was more than a year- ender — it was a milestone. The PMI Philippines Cebu Branch, launched earlier this year, closed its inaugural year surrounded by the volunteers and members who helped make it possible.

The event captured the excitement of a growing branch: new faces joining the community, successful collaborations with local partners, and a steady rise in engagement from professionals across the Visayas. It reflected a chapter beginning to take root and shape its identity.

Two Cities, One Community Spirit

Though held miles apart, PMI Philippines Chapter and PMI PH Cebu Branch shared one thing: a reminder that project managers know how to celebrate.

Both nights were filled with laughter, storytelling, and selfies that only happen when the community gets together outside the usual meetings and deadlines.

The PMI PH 2025 Annual Fellowship wasn’t just a year-end event — it was a joyful pause, a well- deserved breather, and a celebration of everyone who helped shape this year’s accomplishments.
