Remote teams aren’t just a trend—they’re the backbone of modern businesses. But how do you really build one that works—especially in the Philippines, one of the world’s most dynamic talent markets?

Joining us is Nicolas Bivero, CEO & Co-Founder of Penbrothers, a veteran expat with over 22 years in Asia. He moved to the Philippines in 2011 and co-founded a company that now employs over 1,300 people.

We uncover:

- The surprising and underrated talent pools in the Philippines you probably haven’t considered

- Why the Philippines has become a global hub for more than just virtual assistants

- The cultural nuances that can make—or break—your remote team strategy

- And the one big legal hurdle every Singaporean business owner needs to know before they even think about hiring.

If you’ve ever wondered whether scaling with Filipino talent is still worth it—or how to do it right—this conversation will give you the clarity you’ve been looking for.

Tune in, because this one goes beyond the usual “remote work playbook.”
