Gaw and Katrina L. Chan, representing Immaculate Concepcion Academy Greenhills, were awarded the title of Entrepreneur of the Year during the three-day competition.

The finalists were tasked with addressing the global issue of recycling materials by developing a new innovative product or service for the Argentinian market using reused jeans. The Philippine team came up with the concept of Eco-Gear, a set of recycled, durable and affordable sports equipment, including goalie gloves, a soccer ball and shin guards, targeting the soccer-loving Argentinians.
