Publicly listed conglomerate Vivant Corporation announces the appointment of Alfredo S. Panlilio as an independent director to its board. Panlilio brings extensive leadership experience from his roles on the boards of Meralco, PLDT, and Smart, and currently serves as president of the Management Association of the Philippines (MAP). With a distinguished career across the energy and technology sectors, he adds strategic depth and governance strength as Vivant continues to deepen its leadership bench.
To further align leadership with business priorities, Atty. Jose M. Layug, Jr., has been appointed to the Board of Vivant Energy Corporation (VEC), the group’s power generation and energy solutions business unit. A former Energy Undersecretary and one of the leading voices in Philippine energy law, Atty. Layug has served in various governance roles across the Vivant group since 2022. Most recently, he chaired Vivant Corp.’s Related Party Transactions and Corporate Governance Committees while also serving on the Audit and Risk and Sustainability Committees. His appointment to VEC reflects a continued commitment to bringing deep sectoral insight to the group’s energy platform as it navigates the evolving energy landscape.
These appointments reflect Vivant’s efforts to align leadership with the evolving needs of the conglomerate—strengthening strategic oversight and governance at the corporate level while reinforcing technical and sectoral expertise at the subsidiary level.
