H.E. Alfonso A. Ver, Philippine Ambassador to the UAE, commended the event, stating: “The return of the Philippine Property and Investment Exhibition this year highlights the robust growth of the Philippines’ investment and real estate sectors, particularly in the UAE. This growth signifies the increasing confidence in the Philippine economy. I commend the NPM Group for organizing this event, which brings together leading developers from the Philippines to encourage investment from Filipino and foreign investors.”

Hon. Marford M. Angeles, Philippine Consul General in Dubai, emphasized the exhibition’s contribution to showcasing investment opportunities and empowering Filipino professionals and entrepreneurs, stating: “This year, as we celebrate a decade of the largest Philippine real estate event in the UAE, with an inspiring community nearing one million strong Filipinos, we also mark half a century of fruitful relations between our two nations. The exhibition, a pivotal platform, has not only showcased the best investment opportunities to our kababayans but also played a crucial role in shifting the narrative of migrant Filipinos from one of low-skilled workers to one of empowered professionals and successful entrepreneurs.”

Dr. Karen Remo, CEO and Founder of New Perspective Media Group, Organizer of PPIE and PEIS, expressed her enthusiasm for the event, stating, "The 10th edition of PPIE marks a significant milestone in promoting Philippine real estate and investment opportunities to both Filipino and foreign investors. From its very inception in 2014, PPIE has served as a conduit of progress for our nation, and the return of our annual international exhibition underscores our unwavering commitment to this cause. Through our ongoing efforts to promote financial literacy among overseas Filipinos, such as through our signature event like the PPIE, we’ve fostered a culture of saving and investment that will positively impact lives for generations to come.”
