“We don’t go to events to learn—we go to be changed.”
The Journey Begins Here
All tourism and hospitality students want to create memories for other people.
But something no degree text will ever learn you is that you must first get your own memorable experience.
Enter Juandercon—a groundbreaking two-day convention that not only fills your notebook but also fills your heart. To be held on October 23–24, 2025 at Ynares Sports Arena, Juandercon is the Philippines’ first and only Tourism Marketing, Hospitality, and Management Conference dedicated to future professionals like you.
Whether you’re studying for a BS in Tourism, Hospitality Management, or Event Planning, Juandercon is not merely a conference—it is a right of passage.
The Real World Will Not Wait. Juandercon Prepares You for It.
Tourism business is based on people, emotions, timing, and creativity. With Juandercon, you learn with industry legends, marketing experts, and visionary tourism innovators who’ve blazed the trail and are here to provide you with the compass.
What You’ll Learn:
* Marketing and Leadership competencies for a service economy

More than a Conference—It’s a Movement
Organized by the Junior Tourism and Hospitality Management Association of the Philippines (JTHMAP) and Exlink Management and Marketing Services Corp. (Exlinkevents), Juandercon is not a PowerPoint presentation. It’s not selfies (although you will take some great ones). It’s unearthing your power as future Filipino tourism leaders.
JTHMAP Founder said Jojo Villamin:
“Juandercon is where vision and action converge. We’re not only molding students—we’re creating future tourism leaders who can compete internationally.”
