Mac Fojas, the IT-BPM Techblazer of the Year, honored at the Asia CEO Awards 2024, has become synonymous with innovation in the Philippine IT-BPM industry. His leadership is grounded in a solid academic and professional background, having graduated from the University of the Philippines and Fordham University. Mac refined his skills on Wall Street, developing investment banking applications that equipped him with both technical expertise and a profound understanding of business strategy. This foundation enabled him to recognize and seize opportunities that needed expertise on Java technology in the 1990s, leading to the establishment of Seven Seven, which has since evolved into the country’s leading IT-BPM provider.

While accepting the award, Mac Fojas was asked about what makes him successful. “My wife,” he quipped before expressing his gratitude towards Seven Seven and acknowledging those who came with him at the event.

For Mac, this award represents how he envisions to continuously contribute and help reshape the future of the information technology landscape globally, especially in the Philippines. His vision embodies not only the recognition of current industry trends but also the acceptance of opportunities for growth and transformation.
