Coworking Makes Sense at Impact Hub Manila with KMC Solutions


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Any freelancer, home-based employee, and entrepreneur know what it’s like to have an idea, but fail to execute. As your own boss, you’re awarded with the appearance of freedom, but find yourself swamped with more tasks today from failing to finish the tasks of yesterday. As the day goes by, you’re finding it harder to focus on your daily goals.

Working from the comfort of your own home isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, and there are several reasons why – the distractions, isolation, lack of collaboration can all build up to one thing, failure.

Firstly, your home provides too much stimulus for you to focus on one single thing. Getting caught in one distraction will lead to procrastination, and then pulling an all-nighter over a deadline that’s coming up. This scenario leads to two possible outcomes; First, you miss the deadline, your client is disappointed, and you stress over it. Second, you meet the deadline, fail to produce quality outcome, your client is disappointed, and you stress over it.

Second, the isolation can drive you nuts. One of the best things about working in an office is seeing people working hard, which in turn, motivates you to do your best as well. There’s always a sense of synergy when you work alongside others, even if you’re not working with them.

Third, you have this great idea that you know is going to be a big hit, but you can’t seem to bridge idea to prototype. What you lack is collaboration, as well as the network, or community to share your idea with. Never be afraid of sharing your idea for fear of having it stolen. In a network of similarly-minded entrepreneurs or possible consumers, sharing your idea could pave way for better user interface, user experience, and pricing, thus a better prototype.


These are the exact reasons why Impact Hub Manila collaborated with KMC Solutions to present you with four coworking spaces around Manila that will cater to your needs as a creative entrepreneur. There’s a vibrant learning community waiting for you at Impact Hub Manila today to collaborate, create, and make a global impact. Join them and network with the world’s most innovative professionals, entrepreneurs, and leaders.




Microsoft Survey: Business Leaders in the Philippines Prioritize Hybrid Cloud for Digital Transformation


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Microsoft recently held a press launch of the Windows Server 2016 on November 18 at the Hexagon Lounge of Tower 2 of RCBC Plaza. Herns Hermida of Microsoft gave us an overview of how the new Windows Server 2016 and System Center 2016 accelerates transition to a digital business.

As expected, cloud technology is primarily a significant part of the digital transition if we really want to be more competitive, innovative, and revolutionary, in a sense, as we embrace advance technology with trust and vision.

I do believe it is the way to go since everyone, even traditional media, is going digital. Now that the cloud has gone hybrid - a merging of both public and private solutions, the possibilities are becoming endless and infinite too.

True enough, businesses are evolving especially those who courageously joined the ICT bandwagon ahead of others. Being pioneers in technological innovations makes us look more credible and stronger in the yes of not only our customers but also our peers in the industry.

I've been a Systems and Server Administrator for several years and I couldn't really catch up with how speedy the development of technology has been. It seems there's a new technology coming up every second that there no longer is a specialist that could say he or she knows everything about a certain technology.

FuckUp Night: Celebrate Failures on November 24th!


Wazzup Pilipinas!

WTF! This is the first time I've heard of an event which celebrates failures! This got to be so interesting to personally witness. I'm excited to be part of it since it is very rare that we recognize or admit our failures. We simply couldn't accept the fact that we were weak or fragile, or "incomplete" and "vulnerable" to succeed on our first try. 

What we don't realize is that those who really make it through life are those that do not use the word "fail" in their vocabulary and merely treat them as a challenge and learning experience to do better next time. Success is easily achieved when you know you have to get back up every time you fall down.

"I’m a firm believer that consistent hustle always wins. This is why when I set my heart to achieve a goal, I make it a point to keep moving towards it no matter how many setbacks I may encounter! I am not afraid to fail. In fact, rather than failing, what scares me the most is giving up. 
I’m sure you have your own set of fears to conquer as well. Why don’t you respond to this email right now and tell me what you’re most afraid of? 
You see, on the 24th, we’ll be having our FuckUp Night – a night to celebrate failures and conquer fears! We’re giving the spotlight to entrepreneurs who know firsthand what it’s like to fail their way to success. 
So if you find yourself in the same place – making mistakes and constantly battling fear – don’t worry, you’re in great company! :) 
Hub On,
LizAn Kuster | Impact Hub Co-Founder
