Social network for entrepreneurs targets big dreamers

SINGAPORE — Four years after quitting her banking job to become a full-time businesswoman, Audrey Regis is turning to a social network for entrepreneurs to bring her salted caramel and chocolate coated dried mangoes to a global audience.

Cebu-based Regis said GlobalLinker could be what she needs to go beyond local shopping malls. The free platform from Unionbank allows small and medium enterprises to network, build e-commerce websites, find mentors and access a suite of payment and financing solutions.

“I want my product to be famous around the world. My dream is not small. I’m looking for a connection. When I was introduced to GlobalLinker, I was thinking this would connect me and make my plans to export easier,” Regis, who owns Audrey’s Confectioneries told, ABS-CBN News.
