Red Bull Basement is launching a program in the Philippines to help Filipino innovators create groundbreaking ideas using AI technology. Participants will receive tools to create winning business plans, and the winning national champion will be invited to the Red Bull Basement World Final in Tokyo. The program aims to unlock the potential of young innovators through networking, collaboration, and expert-led workshops, fostering a global stage for Filipinos driven by a desire for meaningful change.

This empowers participants to challenge the status quo and bring their visionary ideas to life using the latest technology, leaving a lasting impact on a global scale.

Red Bull Basement Philippines invites a fresh cohort of student innovators, entrepreneurs, and tech enthusiasts to present their ideas. Participants are asked to harness AI to build robust business plans, identify key opportunities, prioritize growth areas, and bring their ideas to life. Teams of one or two innovators in the Philippines can apply by visiting the Red Bull Basement website. An intuitive AI tool will guide interested participants in creating and submitting a concise, one-page business plan. A panel of local judges will then select the top participants for the National Final.
