Even during the pandemic, the export promotion arm of DTI has supported local brands by launching FAME+, an all-Filipino digital sourcing and storytelling platform, aiming to showcase Filipino culture, art, and craftsmanship in and outside the country.

Today, FAME is going global. On February 3-7, FAME is participating in Ambiente 2023, a trade fair in Frankfurt Messe, Germany, with the theme "Moving the future".

4,700 exhibitors have already announced their participation in the trade fair, which will soon make Ambiente the world's biggest trade fair platform of its kind. For the first time, it will be staged at three venues. 

It will prioritise four product areas: dining, living, giving, and working. These areas must consider sustainability, material innovation, and design breakthroughs and trends—all of which most Filipino brands have always considered in their craft.

The 2023 edition of Ambiente will serve as a major platform for global trends—making it the ideal place for Filipino brilliance to shine.
