What makes an idea worth pursuing? It starts with understanding a real problem, listening to the people experiencing it, and building a solution that offers genuine value.

The online mentorship sessions of The HATCH 2026: Innovate. Impact. Transform. have officially concluded! Through the guidance of our session coaches, our student innovators explored the essential steps of developing an idea—from discovering customer pain points and mapping solutions to building prototypes, developing business models, and crafting compelling pitches.

We extend our sincere gratitude to our mentors for sharing their knowledge and experience with our aspiring innovators:

Mr. John Dee Gonos — Problem Discovery & Customer Pain Points

Ms. Ria Angelika Gonzaga — Solution Mapping, Value Proposition & Experience

Mr. Francis Bernardo and Ms. Christine Faith Germinal — Prototyping, Business Model & Go-To-Market

Mr. Jacinto “Jhaze” Asuncion Jr. — From Strategy to Story: Pitch Deck & Video Creation

With the mentorship sessions behind us, the next step belongs to our innovators.

It is time to identify the problems they want to solve, develop solutions that respond to real needs, and clearly communicate the value their ideas can offer. Beyond completing their outputs, the challenge is to build ideas grounded in actual problems and shaped by the people they hope to serve.

As they prepare for the next stage of The HATCH 2026, our teams are encouraged to keep testing their assumptions, refining their solutions, and strengthening their value propositions.

Through AdUNEST, Adamson University continues to provide opportunities for students to explore entrepreneurship, develop their ideas, and take meaningful steps toward innovation.

The mentorship sessions may be over, but the work of building solutions has only just begun.

Innovate. Impact. Transform.

Adamson University, through AdUNEST, joined the Manila Angel Investors Network’s (MAIN) 10th anniversary celebration on October 8, 2026, at the Manila Polo Club in Makati. Engr. Ian Charl Nico V. Tubban, Head of AdUNEST, represented the University in the gathering and its call for stronger collaboration across the Philippine startup ecosystem.

The event’s Solidarity Ecosystem Commitment emphasized mentorship, knowledge sharing, and stronger connections among founders, investors, academic institutions, industry, and public sector partners.

For AdUNEST, this movement reflects its role as an incubator. Supporting founders means helping them make informed decisions and connecting them with people and opportunities that can move their ventures forward.

Adamson University’s participation underscores the importance of connecting university innovation with the wider startup community. AdUNEST looks forward to helping translate this spirit of cooperation into meaningful support for emerging founders, students, and researchers.

Congratulations to MAIN on a decade of supporting Philippine startups!

Congratulations to our student innovators from the Marketing Management Department for making it to the BIDA 2026 Finals! 🎉

We also thank the Adamson University-Marketing & Operations Management for its continued trust in AdUNEST as a partner in supporting and preparing our student innovators as they bring their ideas beyond the classroom and into real-world opportunities.

Achievements like this show what becomes possible when students are given the space, mentorship, and support to turn ideas into solutions that address real problems.

More than celebrating this milestone, we hope their journey inspires more Adamsonians to step forward, challenge what is possible, and build solutions of their own.

You have an idea? Take the challenge. Build it. Test it. Pitch it.

Who knows? The next Adamsonian innovation we celebrate could be yours. 💙
