A productive visit to Laguna State Polytechnic University (LSPU) in San Pablo, Laguna, fostered a strong connection with President Dr. Mario R. Briones. Dr. Briones’ remarkable journey from a jeepney driver to the leadership of a prominent provincial university is truly inspiring. During our meeting, IIBP group and I engaged in insightful discussions with President Briones and his executive team, exploring collaborative opportunities to benefit the region’s extensive agricultural community.
We are grateful for the warm welcome and the spirit of partnership extended by President Briones, VP Eden Callo, Dr. Michelle Serbianto, and the entire LSPU team.
We are committed to supporting LSPU’s mission and contributing to the community it serves.
