What is SaaScon PH ‘26?

SaaSCon PH is the premier gathering for the SaaS and AI community in the Philippines, bringing together:

SaaS, platform, and AI founders and leaders

SME and enterprise SaaS decision-makers

Venture capital and private equity investors

Local and global media partners

In 2026, we’re building on last year’s success with even bolder discussions, cutting-edge innovations, and real-world insights that shape the future of business in the region.

This May 12, 2026, we’re going beyond “what’s next.” SaaScon PH ’26 marks our fourth edition, and our boldest yet: diving headfirst into the era of SaaS 5.0, AI-native platforms, and autonomous software.

With a sharper focus on machine-centric product design, agent-led operations, and the unraveling of old playbooks, we’re building on last year’s momentum with richer insights, tougher conversations, and a more urgent call to adapt.

Whether you’re building, scaling, or investing in software, this isn’t just where you need to be: this is where the future of SaaS is being rewritten.
