Ignition Venture Studio Opens its Doors

The theme of the event was Ignition in Action. Guests of Ignition were allowed to experience the modern and stylish interiors of Ignition, which felt more like a boutique hotel than a typical office.

The office is very generous in terms of allocating space. It has double ceiling height, floor to ceiling windows, the latest office equipment, high speed internet and elegant furnishings.

The design allows people to easily mingle and interact with members of the Ignition community who had diverse backgrounds ranging from finance, art, fashion, science and technology, design and law, with one common interest: entrepreneurship.

The energy was infectious. Everyone was engaging and excited about the endless possibilities Ignition can unlock through its platform.

The highlight of the evening was the presentation of two (2) entrepreneurs with non-traditional backgrounds:

1) Miguel Escueta

2) Jetro Vin Rafael

Miguel is a successful singer/songwriter who recently got into entrepreneurship. He owns a few bars and coffee establishments and is now expanding into retail and real estate. Ignition is helping him and his business group structure strategic partnerships, register his new businesses and promote his advocacy of supporting local Filipino singer-songwriters.

Jetro Vin Rafael is a modern day renaissance man. He is most known for his restaurant Van Gogh is Bi-Polar. But he is also an accomplished artist and social entrepreneur. He is the founder of the “Love Project” a healing sanctuary for those who have mental conditions and are commonly misunderstood. Ignition is helping him structure his various business interests and sustain and expand the “Love Project” in the process.
