Held in Seoul, South Korea, the Asia-Pacific Stevie Awards spotlight excellence in innovation across 29 regional markets. Tanco’s dual win underscores a rare combination of business acumen and creative innovation in both the communications and healthcare sectors.
At PhilCare, one of the Philippines’ trailblazing HMOs, Tanco spearheaded initiatives to make healthcare more accessible and tech-forward.
Under his watch, the company launched the country’s first prepaid healthcare plans, the HeyPhil mobile app, and the DigiMed teleconsultation platform—all tailored to the needs of modern Filipinos, especially freelancers and young families.
“The award is a recognition of the incredible work our team has done to put health and wellness into the hands of Filipinos,” Tanco said. “We built solutions around what people need most—convenience and value.”
At Comm&Sense, now in its 20th year, Tanco transformed the company from a conventional PR agency into a digital storytelling powerhouse. By combining analytics with empathy, Comm&Sense delivers data-driven campaigns that inspire and inform across industries.
