Another milestone unlocked!
PWC IME’s prIME Marketplace and Prize was a huge success as it culminated its semester-long program at the PWC RSM Events Center last May 14, 2025. The event featured ventures ranging from fashion, food, agriculture, technology, services, and lifestyle.
Spearheaded by IME Coordinator Tisonette Tumlos, this year’s IME program marked its highest number of student participants since its inception, with an impressive total of 482 students.
Among the 114 ventures, STOX, a venture under the Fine Arts and Interior Design Department, stood out as the Overall Best Business Pitch and Venture. Their innovative Stox Stool, a multifunctional seating and storage solution crafted from eco-friendly oriented strand board and rattan, offered a space-saving answer for modern homes and limited spaces. Their creativity, along with a strong commitment to sustainability and design innovation, paved the way to their well-deserved victory.
Congratulations to all winners and ventures who worked tirelessly to create innovative and sustainable products and services. Your dedication and perseverance continue to ignite the flame that IME has nurtured for years, fueling a powerful passion for entrepreneurship.
Indeed, at PWC, innovation is our tradition.
Once again, congratulations to everyone.
Until the next prIME Marketplace and Prize!
