Silid Aralan, Inc. participated in a 3-week online international collaboration with Solar Hope, Farmvocacy and nine (9) Japanese professionals designed by Spiceworx Consultancy Inc. The participants specifically participated in the “Mission-Driven Business Challenge Program”, a signature program of Spiceworx. Representing SAI during the program were CMO Arcie Mallari, PM Krisha June Burgos and LDM Joy Anne Clenuar. The program began on June 7, 2021 and ended last June 25, 2021.

The program focused on raising funds through the creation or enhancement of crowdfunding initiatives and the Design Sprint. The design sprint was facilitated by On-Off Group, a Manila-based innovation agency.

The program allowed SAI to not only raise funds for the organization through the help of its Japanese team members, learn about design sprint and find a solution to an existing challenge in the organization; it also allowed SAI to build a deeper connection with every participant in the program. SAI extends its heartfelt gratitude to Spiceworx, On-Off Group and all program partners for the learning and collaboration opportunity.
