THE Quezon City government has awarded P6 million in equity-free grants to six local tech startups under the StartUp QC program to support and empower homegrown innovators while creating impactful solutions for various sectors.

“We are proud to see how these startups evolve and create meaningful sectoral transformation,” Mayor Joy Belmonte said.

“Quezon City remains proactive and open to cultivating a more vibrant environment for local talents, business, and economic development,” she added.

As Quezon City celebrated its 85th founding anniversary, the StartUp QC program demonstrated the local government’s commitment to play an active and impactful role in shaping the future of Filipino entrepreneurship and innovation.

The third cohort of Startup QC, the first and largest local government unit-run startup program in the Philippines, culminated in a demo day featuring tech-driven solutions aimed at addressing the most pressing challenges across a variety of sectors.

From an initial pool of 58 applicants, the final awardees were selected after a rigorous selection process, group mentorship, and product development workshops.

One standout finalist was Nyha Robotics, a promising team that first made waves as an awardee in the recently launched Startup QC Student Competition.
