Going after ambitious goals takes a lot of belief, planning, and grit to see things through. This is especially true for New Marketlink Pharmaceutical Corporation (NMPC), as we take on our boldest target yet in 2026 – a year that also marks our 20th anniversary.

When I joined NMPC in 2019, I knew I was joining a team that had already established itself in the pharmaceutical industry. I leaned into the expertise the organization had already built, but I also believed NMPC was capable of more: bigger ambitions, greater impact, and new heights.

It is this same belief that brought us together at our recent Midyear Conference with the theme: Believe. Build. Beyond. (The three Bs as you can see, and they should give you a clue about where we’re heading!)

My take is this: if your capacity to believe determines your success, then believe that you’ve already begun to win – and that you can do even more. I am proud of what we’ve achieved so far, the capability of every Marketlinker, and the clarity of where we want to go next. As one of our Brand Managers shared during one of our weekly huddles, the first sales pitch we make each day is to ourselves: that we can, and we will. This is the kind of self-belief we strive to instill in every individual and across all teams to propel us toward success.

How we build toward that success should also be grounded on a mindset of excellence. For us, hindi pwede ang pwede na. Mediocrity is our enemy, and we give 100% in every endeavor. Excellence in execution is part of our DNA – whether it’s partnering with healthcare providers to deliver life-saving medicines to patients, working with our trade partners and suppliers to ensure medicines reach the public swiftly and efficiently, or providing our employees with jobs they can be proud of while helping them achieve their own goals. As I like to say in our gatherings, ang Marketlinker, mabangis: mabangis sa execution, mabangis sa partnership, mabangis sa serbisyo.

Finally, believing we can do it and building something we are proud of also means looking beyond the present. For 20 years, we have earned the trust of Filipino and global partners, patients, and healthcare providers, and we aren’t going anywhere. We’re here to challenge ourselves to do more for Filipinos: by bringing world-class medicines that help more people heal, and by doing more not only for our employees but also for the communities we serve.

As the second half of the year continues to unfold and we aim to finish strong this 2026, I’m proud of NMPC and even more excited for our next chapter as we continue to break records while we Believe. Build. Beyond.
