    Weaving a new era: Epson digital printing transforms Philippine fashion

    The fashion and textile industry in the Philippines is evolving, driven by a growing demand for customization, efficiency, and sustainability. Epson’s advanced digital textile printers are at the heart of this transformation, enabling designers and businesses to create stunning, high-quality fabrics with precision and speed. From intricate indigenous patterns to bold contemporary designs, Epson technology empowers Filipino creativity while honoring heritage and embracing eco-conscious practices.

    Unleashing Filipino Creativity: Design Without Limits

    For emerging Filipino designers, Epson’s digital textile printers, including Dye-sublimation printers like the SureColor SC-F9530/H and SC-F11030/H and Direct-to-Garment printers such as SureColor SC-F1030 and SC-F2230, are true game-changers. These allow designers to bring their ideas directly onto fabric, whether by printing straight onto garments or transferring designs with heat. Imagine creating limited-edition collections inspired by indigenous patterns or urban iconography, produced quickly and efficiently in small batches. This empowers designers to experiment freely, reducing risk and helping unique ideas truly shine.

    Epson’s precise printing technology ensures every intricate detail and vibrant color is reproduced with pinpoint accuracy. This means designs, whether for custom clothing, unique home decor like shower curtains, or soft signs, look exactly as the artist intended. The possibilities are vast, allowing Filipino talent to innovate beyond traditional boundaries.

    Boosting Local Businesses

    Epson’s large-format printers give clothing brands and textile makers a big advantage. With on-demand printing, businesses can produce items only when needed. This means less waste, lower costs, and the ability to respond quickly to changing trends and customer requests.

    Epson printers also come with smart features like built-in quality checks and easy-to-use software to keep prints consistent and fix any issues automatically. Plus, with Epson’s cloud system, businesses can monitor and control printers from anywhere—even across multiple locations.

    Everything works together through Epson’s Total Solution, where hardware and software are designed to run smoothly as one system. This makes the entire process simple and efficient, helping local businesses stay competitive and lead in the growing digital textile market.

    Sustainable Advantages

    Moreover, Epson’s dedication to sustainability brings major benefits to the Philippine textile industry. Traditional printing methods often use toxic chemicals, posing environmental and health risks. In contrast, Epson’s dye-sublimation inks are certified safe by Oeko-Tex Eco Passport, meaning they are free from harmful substances and safe for both people and the planet.

    Masako Kusama, president and director of Epson Philippines Corporation, highlights this commitment. “By enabling on-demand production, Epson printers drastically reduce material waste and overproduction, a major contributor to textile pollution. This aligns perfectly with global calls for sustainable practices, a trend crucial for long-term success. By adopting Epson’s technology, Filipino businesses in the textile and fashion industries are not just creating beautiful garments, they are also contributing to a healthier planet and a more responsible industry,” she stated.

    A Legacy of Trust and Innovation

    Epson’s heritage of precision and reliability has made it a trusted name worldwide. In the Philippines, this legacy continues as Epson empowers designers and businesses to combine artistry with technology. These printers are more than tools—they are catalysts for creativity, efficiency, and sustainability. As the Philippine fashion and textile industry evolves, Epson is helping weave a future that honors tradition, embraces innovation, and champions environmental responsibility.

    Escape the performative money trap and start making moves that matter with Maya

    Escape the performative money trap and start making moves that matter with Maya

    We’ve all been there: swearing that this is the year we’ll finally save, spend smarter, and stop the endless cycle of “budol” buys. However, the plan to get our finances in order turns into another “next time” situation.

    Truth is, most of us fall into performative money habits. We mean well, but our actions don’t always match our intentions. If you’re serious about leveling up your finances before the year ends, it’s time to trade old patterns for smarter habits that actually grow your money. Thankfully, Maya, the #1 Fintech Ecosystem and #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines, makes it easier (and more rewarding) to do just that.

    Here’s how to break free from the usual money traps: 

    Start saving with purpose (and peace of mind)

    Let’s be honest, if you’re saving whatever’s left after bills and brunches, there usually isn’t much left to save. It’s time to make this your first move: start treating saving like your first bill of the month and not as an afterthought  With Maya Personal Goals, you can set up specific savings targets — whether it’s for a trip, a new gadget, or an emergency fund — and earn up to 8% interest per year as you go.

    Here’s how it works:

    • Create up to five Personal Goals inside the Maya app.
    • Name each goal, set your due date and target amount.
    • Fund it from your Maya Wallet, Maya Savings, or even another bank.

    Once you’ve set your goals, all that’s left to do is watch your money grow. Each one earns 4% interest per year right away, and every PHP20,000 you add unlocks a higher rate—up to 8% per year for deposits up to PHP100,000. There are no lock-up periods or penalties, so you stay flexible while still growing your money.

    Make every spend work harder for you

    If you’re spending anyway, you might as well make it count. With Maya, every swipe does more for you boosting your Maya Savings interest up to 15% p.a. and unlocking even more rewards through Maya Credit Cards.

    Got weekend plans? Use your Maya Credit Card and earn up to 20% cashback when you dine anywhere until December 31, 2025. Love grocery runs or bulk shopping? The Maya Landers Credit Card gives you 5% cashback at Landers every time you stock up.

    And if you want to take it up a notch, the Maya Black Credit Card lets you earn Maya Miles for every purchase so your daily spending can literally take you places.

    Take control of credit and use it to build your future

    A lot of us were raised to think credit is bad. But when done right, credit is actually a powerful tool for growth.

    If you’ve never had a credit card before, Maya Black Express is a great way to start. It gives you access to credit perks of Maya Black but with less pressure. You just make a one-time Express Deposit (starting at PHP12,500) that sets your spending limit and that deposit stays in your Maya Savings, earning 3.5% interest per year while you use your card.

    Every purchase helps you build your credit score, bringing you closer to qualifying for the full Maya Black Credit Card and all its lifestyle-level perks in as fast as six months.

    Start where you are and scale with Time Deposit Plus

    You don’t need to wait for a pay raise to start managing your money better. But once you’re ready to take your savings to the next level, Maya Time Deposit Plus can help you grow more consistently.

    You can lock in your money for 3, 6, or 12 months with rates as high as 6% p.a. on deposits of up to PHP1 million per Time Deposit Plus account, and with up to five accounts, that’s as much as PHP5 million in total interest-earning deposits.

    The best part? You can keep adding funds anytime, even after reaching your target amount. It’s perfect for anyone who wants the structure of a time deposit, but the flexibility of modern saving.

    We’ve all made money mistakes — what matters is learning how to move past them. Breaking from performative habits starts with one small, intentional change, and Maya makes that change rewarding, simple, and smart.

    Visit maya.ph or mayabank.ph, and follow @mayaiseverything on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok to stay updated. Maya Philippines, Inc. and Maya Bank, Inc. are regulated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (www.bsp.gov.ph). Deposits are insured by PDIC up to PHP1 million per depositor.

    GoTyme Bank and Wise Platform team up to make international remittances seamless 

    GoTyme Bank has announced its partnership with Wise Platform, a leading global payment infrastructure provider for banks and enterprises. This strategic collaboration makes GoTyme Bank the first partner bank of Wise Platform in the Philippines, and its first International Receive partner in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, empowering over 7.8 million Filipino customers with faster, cheaper and more transparent international transfers via the GoTyme Bank app. 

    The partnership tackles long-standing pain points experienced by Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families—such as expensive transfer fees, hidden charges, slow processing times, and lack of transparency.  

    GoTyme Bank integrated with Wise Platform to enable fast and easy international payments over SWIFT. Customers can now receive money from over 11,000 banks worldwide in 23 major currencies, including USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, and SGD amongst others, with full pricing transparency and faster settlement times. 

    Empowering Filipino Families with Seamless Remittances and Inclusive Banking 

    Remittances are a vital part of the Philippine economy, with OFWs sending over US$38 billion annually, representing one of the largest inflows worldwide and a significant percentage of the country’s GDP. According to Wise research, Filipino consumers lost approximately USD170 million (PHP9.74 billion) in 2024 alone due to hidden fees in international money transfers. 

    With just a few taps in the GoTyme Bank app, customers can view their account details and share them with their sending bank to receive international payments quickly and securely. The service offers coverage across 23 major currencies and 24/7 operational support—ensuring families receive the full value of every remittance. GoTyme Bank customers can conveniently withdraw their remittances for free at over 1,400 Robinsons Retail partner stores nationwide. 

    This partnership supports millions of Filipinos who rely on remittances to fund education, support loved ones, and grow businesses. For families with loved ones working abroad, this integration helps maximize the value of their hard-earned money —turning remittances into real opportunities 

    “Our collaboration with Wise is about creating a trusted remittance experience that feels effortless,” said Nate Clarke, president and CEO of GoTyme Bank. “By pairing Wise’s world-class technology and global network with GoTyme Bank’s simple, beautiful banking, we’re redefining how Filipinos support their families, grow their ambitions, and stay connected to what matters most.” 

    “This partnership exemplifies Wise’s mission to build the infrastructure for the world’s money,” said Samarth Bansal, APAC general manager, Wise Platform. “As the first Wise Platform partnership in the Philippines, it demonstrates how we’re extending beyond our own products to power better financial services through partners. Payments coming over SWIFT have faced hidden charges and slow speeds. With this partnership, GoTyme Bank becomes the first bank in the Philippines to change this trend. For 14 years, Wise has been building the best infrastructure in moving money across borders and it’s exciting to see our partner banks benefit from this infrastructure through Wise Platform.” 

    This collaboration reinforces the shared commitment of GoTyme Bank and Wise Platform to deliver world-class financial services to Filipinos. As customers increasingly expect international payments to be as seamless as domestic transfers, this partnership sets a new benchmark for cross-border banking in the Philippines. By combining GoTyme Bank’s everyday accessibility with Wise’s trusted global infrastructure, the two companies are redefining how remittances are received—making the experience more efficient, secure, and customer-centric for millions of Filipinos.

    Empowering passion and unleashing possibilities with the Canon EOS R6 Mark III and RF45mm f/1.2 STM

    Canon announced an addition to the EOS R mirrorless system, the new full-frame EOS R6 Mark III camera and the RF45mm f/1.2 STM, a new large aperture standard prime lens designed for enthusiasts and hobbyists.

    Succeeding the EOS R6 Mark II, which was released in 2023, the EOS R6 Mark III features a higher 32.5-megapixel resolution and improved speed, performance, and reliability. It also incorporates powerful video capabilities that support professional workflows. 

    As for the RF45mm f/1.2 STM, it is Canon’s widest aperture non-professional lens in its RF lens lineup. A versatile and easy-to-use 45mm focal length on full-frame cameras, it broadens accessibility of an f/1.2 lens to users. On APS-C cameras like the EOS R50, users can expect a portrait-friendly 72mm full-frame equivalent focal length.

    “With the addition of the EOS R6 Mark III, the EOS R system’s ‘6’ series has reached its third generation. True to the series’ legacy, the EOS R6 Mark III packs in Canon’s latest photo and video technologies, making it a powerful and versatile tool for storytellers,” said Nagai Katsuyuki, senior director of regional ICB sales & marketing, Canon Singapore.

    Higher Resolution and Speed

    With the EOS R6 Mark III’s 32.5-megapixel resolution, finer details can be captured in higher definition but with more cropping flexibility. The higher megapixel count comes in useful when it comes to a close crop of faraway subjects.

    The EOS R6 Mark III can capture up to approximately 150 shots when shooting up to 40fps in the high-speed continuous shooting (electronic shutter) mode. Despite the higher processing load, it maintains the same high-speed continuous shooting rate: up to 40 fps (electronic shutter), and up to 12 fps (mechanical/electronic first-curtain shutter).

    Capturing the Moment

    The EOS R6 Mark III features a user-friendly pre-continuous shooting feature. Before the shutter button is fully pressed, up to 20 continuous shots can be recorded in any still recording format including RAW, C-RAW, and HEIF, on any AF mode. Frames can be accessed for post-processing like any other image. 

    Autofocus algorithm enhancements offer more tenacious subject tracking, increasing the success rate when shooting difficult subjects and simplifying the post-shooting workflow. The EOS R6 Mark III also inherits the Register People Priority function also found in the flagship EOS R1, allowing pre-registered people to be prioritized for detection and tracking when shooting photos or videos in group situations such as events, concerts, or team sports.

    A Leap in Video Capabilities

    The EOS R6 Mark III offers more recording and post-production options that cater to different purpose and usage. It supports 7K 60p internal RAW video recording to a CF-express Type B card and is the first EOS R series camera to offer 3:2 Open Gate recording (up to 7K 30p RAW). 

    This provides greater post-production flexibility for reframing, especially when creating horizontal and vertical videos from the same footage. During 7K 60p RAW recording, users can also simultaneously record a smaller MP4 proxy file or a 4K DCI Fine MP4 sub movie to its SD card slot.

    Recording formats have been expanded, adding internal RAW recording, Canon Log 2, and the HLG gamma recording capabilities to the pre-existing Canon Log 3 and HDR PQ. Support for the Cinema EOS range’s Custom Picture (CP) profiles including custom LUTs helps set recording options like gamma, colour sampling, and bit depth for different workflow and delivery requirements. Official LUT files can also be downloaded from the new Canon LUT Library. Additional custom LUT files can be easily imported to the EOS R6 Mark III via the Camera Connect smartphone app or recording media.

    Like the EOS R5 Mark II, the EOS R6 Mark III supports waveform monitor display, in addition to false colours and zebras to check and achieve accurate exposure on set. New features like the AWB Response and Shockless WB enable seamless white balance transitions during video shooting regardless the AWB is utilized or the white balance is manually adjusted.

    During shooting, there are 14 Color Filters that can be used to apply instant color grading effects to stills or videos for quick output or to preview how the final video will look like. Additionally, there is a S&F mode that records up to 60x fast motion 4K video and 5x (4K) or 7.5x (2K DCI) slow motion video.

    Innovative Body

    The EOS R6 Mark III retains the basic operability, reliability, and durable body design of the EOS R6 Mark II, with enhanced button customisation and improved ergonomics for handheld vertical shooting.  It utilizes the LP-E6P battery pack and supports the BG-R20/BG-R20EP battery grip, which holds two batteries to enable longer shoots and enhances ergonomics for handheld vertical shooting.

    f/1.2 Made Accessible

    As Canon’s first f/1.2 lens of its class, the RF45mm f/1.2 STM is a compact, lightweight and affordable option for users who desire bokeh. The lens also delivers greater low light flexibility and AF support. The 45mm focal length allows users to capture a natural perspective, while moving seamlessly between wide environmental shots and intimate close-ups—often with just a single step. 

    On APS-C cameras, the lens achieves a 72mm equivalent angle of view that is ideal for portraits, close-ups of objects, and street photography. With the lens’ f/1.2 bokeh, users will find it easy to frame their storytelling in a defining manner. When stopped down to f/8, the lens delivers professional standard edge-to-edge sharpness.

    The lens weighs approximately 346g and is the smallest f/1.2 lens in both EF and RF lens range. This was made possible by the effective use of the PMo (plastic molded) aspherical lens elements, gear-type STM technology with a magnetic detection system, and digital lens correction.

    The compact, lightweight body complements full-frame cameras like the EOS R6 Mark III and smaller APS-C cameras like the EOS R50, forming an excellent shoot combination for enhanced agility. 

    Powerful and Cost-Efficient

    Both the EOS R6 Mark III and RF45mm f/1.2 STM bring excellent cost-performance benefits, integrating many of their higher-end counterparts’ powerful features. The RF45mm f/1.2 STM’s f/1.2 maximum aperture allows ample light information to reach the EOS R6 Mark III’s sensor, unleashing the full potential of its Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system’s low light capabilities. This results in faster and more accurate subject detection and tracking in low-light conditions.

    Paired with the EOS R6 Mark III’s 5-axis image stabilization, the RF45mm f/1.2 STM delivers sharp, clean images at slow shutter speeds and lower ISOs. These two new products is a powerful combination for advanced enthusiasts who seek the best value with maximum performance and versatility.

    Unified 911 system now uses hyperconverged analytics to revolutionize emergency response

    The country’s unified 911 emergency response system, which was launched last September, has just received a revolutionary upgrade. Hyperconverged analytics now being integrated into the public safety systems of the Unified Emergency 911 National Command Center in Manila and the first regional hub in Cebu.

    Hyperconverged analytics is the future of 911. It leverages data science to integrate real-time analytics with automation, delivering lightning-fast insights that support informed decision-making during emergencies.

    Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Jonvic Remulla emphasized the importance of having a single emergency hotline that simplifies and fast-tracks emergency response in the country during the launch.

    “The Philippines is a very complicated country that becomes even more complicated with emergency response. Today, we have one number, and that is 911. By minimizing delays and coordinating responders, the hotline gives families confidence that they are safer at home, in the streets, and in every barangay,” he said during the launch.

    Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Emergency 911 National Office Executive Director Francis Fajardo, lauded the modernized emergency response system equipped with next-generation advanced technology for its ability to “respond faster and now, gain richer, real-time insights that result in faster, smarter and more effective emergency response”.

    “The Unified 911’s efficiency rate now is 96.56%, compared to last year’s 48%. This is how significant the changes have been with the launch of [Unified] 911 and the modernization of our system,” Fajardo said at a media conference on November 4. He also revealed that since its launch last September 11, the Unified Emergency 911 National Command Center (NCC) has already handled over 1.76 million calls.

    Robert Llaguno, country head of NGA 911 Philippines, which provided the technology, said hyperconverged analytics revolutionizes decision-making during emergencies and aligns with the DILG’s Revitalized 911 initiative launched in the fourth quarter of 2024 and immediately implemented by the DILG through the E911 National Office.

    Hyperconverged analytics combines multiple data sources into a unified, automated, intelligent system. Instead of handling fragmented data separately, it integrates, processes, and analyzes information in real-time, enabling decision-makers to act based on comprehensive, actionable insights.  

    While hyperconverged analytics powers real-time emergency response within local command centers, AWS analytics strengthens long-term decision-making by storing and analyzing historical emergency data. This hybrid approach allows 911 centers to process urgent information on-premises for immediate action, leveraging cloud-based insights for predictive analytics, resource optimization, and national-level coordination. 

    By integrating both technologies, emergency responders can act swiftly in critical moments, improving strategic planning and disaster preparedness.

    Llaguno explained that 911 services now combine call center data with incident reporting such as emergency reports, response times, to establish call patterns, location association, generate information by region, province and/or city, categorize nature of emergencies, incident types help identify disaster/incident-prone areas to determine historical crime trends, medical emergency and fire prone cities. “We wish to take the country to next level risk awareness, today we are presently doing interoperability tests, with other IoT systems, such as UGC sweeps (User Generated Content) from social media platforms and CCTV feeds providing real-time video, data, on accidents, fire, flood, storm warnings and earthquake, so that tomorrow we can provide our responders near-real time risk visualization, alerts and statistical trends.

    The technology is being developed by NGA 911 jointly with DILG to enhance national emergency response and support interagency collaboration between police, fire, medical, and disaster response teams.

    “The partnership between NGA 911, a leader in Next Generation 911 (NG911) technology and the DILG through the E911 National Office has now further revolutionized its emergency response capabilities via hyperconverged analytics. By integrating advanced analytics, AI-driven insights, and seamless interagency coordination, the Philippines is setting a new benchmark for public safety operations not just in the country, but in the region. The country’s 911 system is undergoing a major transformation, allowing public safety answering points (PSAPs) to respond more intelligently to emergencies,” Llaguno said.

    “Responders can now pinpoint exact locations, assess risk levels, and manage resources more efficiently. Emergency calls are routed to the right responders, ensuring quicker dispatch of units.  Data-driven planning allows the forecasting of incidents based on historical response patterns, time of day, and environmental conditions, helping mitigate accidents and disasters before they occur. With data-backed insights, the government can allocate emergency personnel, equipment, and funding where they are needed most. During natural disasters, NGA 911’s system can link emergency calls with live video feeds, geolocation tracking, and improving disaster management efforts,” he explained.

    Llaguno summarized the benefits of the new system as faster emergency response, predictive accident and disaster prevention, smarter resource allocation, increased public confidence and accountability, and seamless interagency collaboration.

    “We look forward to cascading our best practices in the U.S. to the Unified 911 NCC and in all our activated LGUs Command Centers. These system updates and transfer of knowledge are free and part of our service. We look forward to having all PSAPs in the Philippines be statistics-driven and provided not just with reports but with actionable data”, he added.
