WHO WE ARE

The Regional Operations Group (ROG), headed by Undersecretary Blesila A. Lantayona, is responsible for the field operations of the DTI in the regions and provinces. It also initiates programs to ensure efficient delivery of business development services, including the formulation and implementation of policies, plans, and projects that can benefit micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Regional Coordinating Office (RCO) and Negosyo Centers – Program Management Office (NC-PMO) are also under ROG.

WHAT WE DO

The ROG recognizes MSMEs as the backbone of the country’s economy. Our extensive support network outside Metro Manila spans across regions in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. To promote trade performance throughout the country, our field offices provide the means, resources, and training for starting or growing local businesses.
