Maria Theresa Marcial, President and CEO of BPI Wealth, emphasizes the enduring impact of AI on the future.

During the session, Menge highlighted the anticipated groundbreaking USD 2 Trillion investment cycle expected over the next five years, with artificial intelligence (AI) leading the way in technological advancement and investment opportunities. The rapid movement of capital presents a unique opportunity for tech investors, as funds pour into AI, positioning companies for significant growth and boosting investment portfolio value.

"We are only at the early stages of AI development and its transformative impact on the technology sector. By looking at the technology from a full-stack perspective, we deconstruct every element of AI—from energy and computing, to software, models, data, and applications,” said Menge. "This comprehensive view allows us to identify and invest across all categories and subcategories. We firmly believe this momentum will persist throughout the decade. This is not the end; in fact, it’s just the beginning of an extraordinary journey."
