The Filipino Inventors Society Multipurpose Cooperative (FISMPC) has officially entered a new chapter in its history following the unanimous appointment of Mr. Henry V. Bayubay as the organization's Vice President and General Manager during its Regular Monthly Board Meeting held on August 5, 2026.
The
historic decision was approved by the majority of the Board of Directors
in attendance, reflecting their collective confidence in Bayubay's leadership,
vision, and commitment to advancing innovation, technology, and the cooperative
movement in the Philippines.
The
announcement was formally made by FISMPC Chairman Emeritus Francisco
"Popoy" Pagayon, one of the country's respected champions of
Filipino inventors and innovation. Chairman Emeritus Pagayon emphasized that
the appointment represents more than a leadership transition—it symbolizes the
beginning of a bold transformation that will position FISMPC for the future.
For
decades, Chairman Emeritus Pagayon has inspired hundreds of Filipino inventors,
innovators, and technology advocates to pursue their ideas and become active
contributors to nation-building through invention, entrepreneurship, and
cooperative development. His vision has helped establish FISMPC as a home for
Filipino creativity and innovation.

committed to their mission of serving people. I believe that Henry V. Bayubay
will inspire a new generation of Filipino inventors and lead FISMPC toward
greater relevance in the Digital and AI Era," Chairman Emeritus Pagayon shared
during the meeting.
Bayubay
currently serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of BB 88
Advertising and Digital Solutions Inc., where he has led the development of
digital platforms, software innovations, technology-driven cooperative
solutions, and digital transformation initiatives for various sectors across
the country.
Widely
recognized for his advocacy of integrating technology with cooperative
development, Bayubay has consistently promoted digital innovation as a tool for
economic empowerment, inclusive growth, and sustainable community development.
As the
newly installed Vice President and General Manager, Bayubay is expected
to spearhead initiatives that will modernize FISMPC's operations, strengthen
member services, accelerate digitalization, and expand opportunities for
Filipino inventors to commercialize their innovations through technology-driven
platforms and strategic partnerships.
Among the
priorities expected under his leadership are:
Bayubay
expressed his gratitude to the Board of Directors for the trust and confidence
bestowed upon him.
"I
am deeply honored by the confidence entrusted to me by the Board of Directors.
Together with our officers, members, and our respected Chairman Emeritus
Francisco 'Popoy' Pagayon, we will continue building an organization that
empowers Filipino inventors through innovation, collaboration, and digital
transformation. Our mission is not only to preserve the remarkable legacy of
FISMPC but also to elevate it into a globally competitive innovation
cooperative that inspires future generations."
The Board
believes that Bayubay's appointment comes at a critical time as technological
advancements, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation continue to
reshape industries worldwide. His experience in technology, digital solutions,
and cooperative development is expected to strengthen FISMPC's role as a
leading organization that nurtures Filipino creativity, innovation, and
entrepreneurship.
With
renewed leadership and a shared vision, FISMPC reaffirms its commitment to
empowering Filipino inventors, promoting homegrown technologies, and fostering
an innovation ecosystem where ideas can be transformed into sustainable
enterprises that contribute to national development.
