Lenovo, one of
the world’s biggest technology companies, is once again the official technology
partner of the Ten Accomplished Youth Organizations (TAYO) Awards Foundation,
Inc., the country’s premier award-giving body that recognizes and supports the
outstanding contributions of youth organizations in the country.
“Being one of
the most innovative global tech companies, Lenovo’s thrust in championing
exceptional projects by the youth stands parallel with what the TAYO Awards
Foundation believes in. Their unwavering support helps us empower youth groups
and organizations in the Philippines to innovate and actively contribute to our
society. Together, TAYO Awards Foundation and Lenovo Philippines acknowledge
and aid their outstanding efforts,” said Patricia Matute, Executive Director of
TAYO Awards Foundation, Inc..
Now on its 15th
year, the TAYO Awards is an annual search for exceptional organizations of
young Filipinos that have made notable contributions to the progress and
betterment of their communities or schools through innovative and valuable
projects.
“Our ‘Different
is Better’ philosophy is built around a fundamental belief that innovation is
the best way to address challenges and embrace progress. We are pleased to once
again partner with TAYO Awards Foundation. This partnership gives us the
perfect opportunity to recognize our hardworking youth who are relentless in
making the world a better place through technology,” said Michael Ngan, Country
General Manager of Lenovo Philippines.
As technology
partner, Lenovo will be providing the laptops and tablets that will be used
throughout the screening and awarding process for the TAYO 15 Awards. Lenovo
will also be awarding all 10 winners Lenovo devices.
Further, Lenovo
will be awarding a special citation to one carefully selected organization.
Called ‘Lenovo Outstanding Tech Visionary, the award is given to the
organization that “embodies the ‘Different is Better’ mindset by being unafraid
to stand out and be different, and leverages technology to affect positive
change in society.”
Last year,
Davao-based social enterprise GO2 Virtualahan was conferred said award.
Lenovo has been
the exclusive technology partner of the TAYO Awards Foundation, Inc. for the
TAYO Awards since 2012.
