 Sprout Solutions marked its 10th anniversary on April 8, 2025, by hosting SaaScon PH 2025, the Philippines’ premier SaaS conference, at the Marriott Grand Ballroom in Pasay City. The event gathered over 1,000 founders, executives, technologists, and investors to explore the theme: “SaaS 2.0: Surviving and Thriving in the Age of AI.” As AI becomes a core driver of business growth and efficiency, SaaScon PH aimed to equip attendees with practical insights on adapting to this shift.

[Philippines] – [April 8, 2025] – As Sprout Solutions marks its 10th year as the Philippines’ most trusted and largest B2B SaaS company, it hosts its biggest event of the year, the 3rd annual SaaScon PH, the country’s premier conference for the local Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) industry.

Drawing over 1,000 founders, executives, technologists, and investors, SaaScon PH ’25 spotlights the next frontier of intelligent software under the theme: “SaaS 2.0: Surviving and Thriving in the Age of AI.”

Held at the Marriott Grand Ballroom in Pasay City, SaaScon brings together the nation’s most visionary SaaS builders, enablers and users.  The conference delivers a full day of informative presentations, direction-setting panels, and deep-dive breakout tracks focused on the growing imperative for AI-powered transformation in business.

“The AI revolution is unfolding at a pace we’ve never seen before,” said Kislay Chandra, Chief Operating Officer at Sprout Solutions. “SaaScon is where we unpack how to survive and thrive in the age of AI and why it’s now aptly described as the latest industrial revolution”.

Why “SaaS 2.0” Matters in 2025

The 2025 theme addressed a pivotal shift: AI is no longer an optional innovation—it’s a core driver of operational efficiency, competitive advantage, and scalable growth. With emerging technologies rapidly reshaping almost every business function, SaaScon PH ’25 aimed to equip attendees with practical insights to navigate these seismic changes and harness AI’s full potential in their industries.

This year’s event also served as a milestone celebration of Sprout’s 10-year journey from local startup to SaaS market leader, championing digital transformation in the Philippines and across Southeast Asia.

Leadership Perspectives on AI and Growth

SaaScon PH ‘25 opened with a keynote from Patrick Gentry, CEO and Co-Founder of Sprout, emphasizing the impact of agentic AI on the future of SaaS, and its strategic role in supercharging productivity, efficiency, and speed for businesses of all sizes.

Gentry’s opening is followed by a keynote from Anthony Oundjian, Managing Director and Senior Partner at the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), who presents a compelling global, regional, and Philippines outlook on SaaS, AI and technology adoption across multiple industries.

Fireside Discussion with 2 Industry Stalwarts

The morning plenary also featured a fireside chat with Victor Genuino, President & CEO of ePLDT and Lito Villanueva, Chief Innovations & Inclusion Officer and Executive Vice President of RCBC, where they talk about how their industry-leading companies are leveraging this latest wave of computing technology, and their take on how small, medium and large organizations can use it to adapt and thrive in 2025 and beyond.

Government and Industry Dialogue

In a timely session on public-private collaboration, Usec. David Almirol (DICT), Dr. Gonzalo Varela (World Bank), and Frank Vibar (Asian Hospital), was joined by moderator Monchito Ibrahim (ATIN) to explore policies and partnerships for national digital resilience.

In a powerful closing panel at the morning plenary, industry drivers Unni Pillai (AWS), Dr. Alexander Titov (iDEA), Pushkar Misra (HGS), and Macario Fojas (Seven Seven Global Services) tackled the future of AI-native business models and product strategies.

Tailored Breakout Tracks for Every Growth Stage

Three simultaneous afternoon breakout sessions offered carefully curated content for SaaS users, startup founders, and investors:

Growing Business Talks with Reynaldo Lugtu, Fleire Castro, Eli Harrell, and James Mendoza focused on how SMEs can accelerate productivity, growth and even global competitiveness immediately with practical AI solutions.

Enterprise Exchange, with thought leaders from IBM, Accenture, AWS, Concentrix, Foundever, among others, highlighted how large enterprises are responding to and leading the innovation opportunities brought about by SaaS and AI, and also showcased 5 startups and their solutions that help larger companies quickly scale this innovation.

The Founders and Funders Forum, led by Franco Varona (Foxmont), explored how startup founders are building a new wave of AI-first solutions, and how VC's are separating hype versus high-return in their investment decisions. The Inner Circle session also pairs 10 promising startups with VCs for potential funding discussions.

SaaScon PH ’25 concluded the whole-day event with an engaging Executive Mixer that brings together attendees, organizers and sponsors for an evening of post-event networking, discussions, and deal-making.

Get to Know About Treasure NFT and How to Get TUFT Token: Withdrawal TUFT Date

  

Discover Treasure NFT's breakthrough in the crypto world—from its historic U.S. stock listing to the multi-functional TUFT token. Learn how to earn, use, and withdraw TUFT, plus what’s next for this game-changing Web3 platform.

The world of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) is evolving at lightning speed, and Treasure NFT stands out as a visionary platform shaping the future of digital asset trading.

With its innovative TUFT token and historic listing on the U.S. stock market, Treasure NFT is pushing boundaries and creating exciting opportunities for crypto enthusiasts and institutional investors.

This article explores the platform's major milestones, its core features, and what makes it one of the most promising projects in the blockchain ecosystem.

A Groundbreaking Stock Market Debut

Treasure NFT made headlines as the first NFT-native company to go public via a U.S. SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company). Trading under the ticker symbol TFT, the listing marks a watershed moment in the blockchain industry, signaling a new era where decentralized digital assets meet mainstream financial markets.

This public listing not only brings greater legitimacy to the platform but also offers traditional investors a regulated avenue to gain exposure to NFTs without navigating decentralized exchanges or wallets.

Why It Matters:

1. Institutional Legitimacy: Bridging decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional markets.

2. Regulatory Compliance: Audits by top firms such as Deloitte and KPMG ensure transparency and accountability.

3. Investor Confidence: A public listing fosters long-term growth and wider adoption.

Meet TUFT: The Engine of the Treasure Ecosystem

At the core of the Treasure NFT platform is TUFT, a multi-functional utility token designed to empower users across a variety of roles.

Whether you're a collector, creator, trader, or staker, TUFT plays an essential part in your journey on the platform.

TUFT Token Utilities:

1. Transaction Fees: Used to buy, sell, and auction NFTs.

2. Staking Rewards: Earn passive income by holding and staking TUFT.

3. Liquidity Provision: Enhance market stability by contributing to liquidity pools.

4. Governance Participation: Vote on critical platform decisions, shaping the future of Treasure NFT.

TUFT Token Distribution Model

Treasure NFT’s tokenomics are designed with sustainability and fairness in mind. The TUFT token is distributed through a structured model that supports long-term platform health.

Token Allocation:

1. 25% for community issuance, released in stages.

2. 15% each for: Team & advisors, Airdrop rewards, & Staking incentives

3. Ecosystem Treasury: Unlocked gradually over five years.

This thoughtful approach contrasts sharply with many short-term, hype-driven projects, offering a more reliable path to growth and community value.

How to Get TUFT Tokens

There are multiple ways to become a part of the TUFT ecosystem:

1. Pre-Sale Participation: Early adopters can purchase TUFT before full public release.

2. Airdrop Events: Community engagement and loyalty are rewarded through token giveaways.

3. Earning Through Activities: Participate in quests, events, and platform features to earn tokens organically.

TUFT Token Withdrawal Guide

With growing interest from early adopters and investors, one critical question remains: When can TUFT tokens be withdrawn?

TUFT Token Withdrawal Timeline

As of now, there is no official withdrawal date. The withdrawal function is expected to go live after the Token Generation Event (TGE) or when exchange listings commence. Users should monitor official Treasure NFT channels for updates.

General Withdrawal Process:

- Log In to your Treasure NFT account.

- Check Balance under your dashboard or portfolio.

- Connect Wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, etc.).

- Initiate Withdrawal and approve via your wallet.

- Verify Receipt via your wallet or a blockchain explorer.

Note: Gas fees may apply, and vesting schedules might restrict full withdrawals depending on how tokens were obtained.

Algorithmic Trading Meets NFT Marketplaces

Treasure NFT is more than just a platform for digital collectibles—it's a next-generation marketplace powered by smart algorithmic models designed to solve the NFT sector’s biggest challenge: liquidity.

Key Innovations:

1. Pooling Algorithm Model: Combines NFTs into liquidity pools, enabling fast settlements without matching buyers and sellers.

2. Automatic Pricing Model: Fractionalizes NFTs, making high-value assets accessible to a broader audience.

This dual-model structure combines the accessibility of eBay with the power of automated blockchain protocols, making Treasure NFT a truly unique marketplace.

Compliance and Platform Adjustments

As part of its regulatory alignment for the SPAC listing, Treasure NFT announced a new withdrawal timing policy: All withdrawals must be completed within 360 hours (15 days) from initiation.

While this may require some user adjustment, it highlights the platform's commitment to full regulatory compliance.

Airdrops and Reward Mechanisms

While there’s no scheduled global airdrop as of April 2025, Treasure NFT employs a gamified, reward-centric engagement system that effectively mimics traditional airdrops.

Current and Past Reward Methods

1. Gems – In-app currency earned through quests and games.

2. TUFT Airdrop Allocation – 15% of total supply reserved for community giveaways.

3. Engagement Events – Initiatives like the “Cartridges Event” reward users with tokens and NFTs for platform activity.

How to Qualify for Future Airdrops

1. Connect your wallet at treasurenft.xyz

2. Complete platform quests and earn Gems

3. Join the community on social media

4. Stay updated on events and campaign announcements

What’s Next for Treasure NFT?

The platform is laying the foundation for a holistic Web3 ecosystem that may include:

1. NFT creation and minting tools

2. Integrated gaming experiences

3. Metaverse compatibility

4. Artist and developer hubs

Conclusion: A Bold Step Into the Future

Treasure NFT is not just riding the wave of the NFT boom—it’s actively redefining it. From its historic SPAC listing and regulatory transparency to algorithmic trading models and robust tokenomics, Treasure NFT is building a comprehensive and sustainable digital economy.

Whether you're an investor, collector, artist, or tech enthusiast, Treasure NFT offers compelling reasons to get involved. As the project continues to expand and innovate, staying engaged could unlock significant benefits—both financial and creative—in the Web3 space.
