In a report by the Philippine Daily Inquirer, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the benefits of utilizing data and models from business ventures include being able to lessen the burden of government in terms of funding, while the expertise of businesses such as planning, operations, executions, and ensuring returns can be incorporated in the prospect sustainability projects.

He also stressed the significance of leadership and cooperation with the business sector to gear up standards on responsible conduct to ensure rapid growth while encouraging the practice of sustainability.

As an example, Marcos cited the transition of the transportation sector in the utilization of sustainable and clean fuels, building of green corridors, and modernizing public transportation and the steps they took such as analyzing the fleet capacity and travel time, fuel consumption, and data to come up with informed decision-making.
