The Farm at Carpenterhill, South Cotabato – On June 20, 2024, an audience of industry leaders, innovators, and esteemed guests gathered at The Farm at Carpenter Hill to witness a remarkable presentation by Clint Junsay, the Vice President for Marketing and Communications of Eulap Digital Corporation, as part of the SOX 2024 ICT Summit celebrating National ICT Month. “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests,” Clint began, setting the tone for a compelling narrative that would encapsulate the journey of Eulap Digital Corporation. His speech was a testament to growth, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of excellence that has defined Eulap since its inception in 2011. From Humble Beginnings to Global Reach Imagine a small attic in Parañaque, where Eulap Software Solutions was born with just two passionate individuals—President and CEO Lemuel Javellana and their first employee, Tom. Lemuel, currently in Singapore engaging with the Amazon Asia Pacific Headquarters team, had a vision of transforming the digital landscape through software. This vision, coupled with strong ambition and a dedication to quality, set Eulap on a path of innovation and customer-centric solutions. “Our growth trajectory has been extraordinary,” Clint highlighted. From an initial duo, Eulap has grown to a team of fifty dedicated professionals, encompassing roles from programmers and testers to system analysts, business analysts, support engineers, and CPAs. This growth is not just in numbers but in the expansion of skills, expertise, and a collective vision to push the boundaries of the digital world continually. Milestones and Achievements Reflecting on Eulap’s early days, Clint mentioned, “We started with just five users at the Sto Niño Water District using our accounts receivable system, and fifty users at Yellow Bus Line, Inc., using our inventory management system.” These early adopters were crucial in building the foundation for what has now become a global user base of over 20,000 across the United States, Spain, the United Kingdom, and Japan. One of the most significant achievements was the collaboration with Dr. John Reule Magan, leading to a groundbreaking AI technology for gastroenterologists. This innovation, which aids in differentiating between benign and malignant cells, significantly advances the early detection of cholangiocarcinoma—a disease that personally affected Clint, as it claimed his sister’s life. “Dr. Magan’s upcoming presentations in South Korea and Bali will further demonstrate the profound impact of our collaborative efforts,” Clint announced, urging government agencies to invest in research, business development, and technological innovation. Innovative Solutions and Future Plans Eulap’s robust portfolio includes a comprehensive Accounting System, an integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and a dynamic SMS Blast service, all designed to meet the varied needs of modern businesses. Additionally, the Eulap Academy was introduced, aimed at igniting a passion for technology in the next generation. Through engaging and educational curricula, children can explore coding and robotics, setting them on a path to becoming the tech innovators of tomorrow. Gratitude and Vision for the Future “As we reflect on our journey from a startup in Koronadal to becoming a key player in the national software industry, our gratitude goes to everyone who has been part of this journey—our colleagues, users, customers, and partners,” Clint expressed. The future, he assured, is promising. Eulap remains committed to its founding principles: perseverance, innovation, and an unwarranted commitment to customers. Eulap’s story is one of remarkable transformation—from a team of two in an attic to over fifty professionals in top-tier offices, from serving five users to empowering over 20,000 worldwide, from Koronadal to the global stage. “Together, we are not just creating software; we are crafting a better, more connected world,” Clint concluded. The audience left inspired by the journey and achievements of Eulap Digital Corporation, ready to witness and support the next chapter of this remarkable story.
