By Earl D.C. Bracamonte

The Miss World Philippines (MWP) organization signed a partnership agreement with Artopian Internationale, as one of the major sponsors in this year's pageant, very recently, at the Anabel's Restaurant in Quezon City. Present during the event were MWP's national director Arnold L. Vegafria and Artopian Internationale chief executive officer Oliver Ocampo, together with Reina Hispanoamericana 2019 fourth runner-up Katrina Llegado.

Artopian is a multi-level marketing company that seeks to bring about a human-centered focus into the marketing sector by further enhancing the entrepreneurial skills of its leaders, associates, and networks by introduction and exposure to long-term investments and business opportunities. Artopian's product portfolio include organic food supplements for beauty, health, and wellness.

"This partnership is Artopian's launch pad to enter the beauty industry, not just in Asia but also around the world. As a new company, we aim to increase our reach and global customer level. We are an enterprise in support of people while making a change. Artopian is about social goals than returns.

"We are here to uplift the life of every Filipino. If you act on a dream, you can achieve it. We support beauty platforms because beauty queens are ambassadors of worthy causes. Beauty and advocacy go well hand in hand. We are serving a global brand. And that global brand is service. Artopian is not in the market to compete but to create something new for the better," enthused Ocampo in his introductory speech.

Gracing the early afternoon event were ten of the 45 official candidates that included Bataan reps Dindi Pajares and Jannelle Lewis,, Batangas' Ann de Mesa, Cavite 's Ganiel Krishnan, Cebu's Tracy Maureen Perez, Quezon City's Michelle Arceo, 18-year-old Tatyana Austria, Riana Pangindian, Bataan's Lea Macapagal, and Kapamilya recording artist Emanuelle Vera.

During the final show, Artopian Internationale will be picking two lucky candidates who will receive endorsement contracts to act as brand ambassadors for an entire year. 

Reigning Reina Hispanoamericana Filipinas Katrina Llegado disclosed that all the MWP 2021 candidates will receive their Covid-19 vaccinations from the City of Taguig. This was made possible through a special partnership of the city and the MWP organization.

The Miss World Philippines 2021 coronation night will unfold on August 8 at the Grand Ballroom of Okada Manila. Stay tuned for more updates in the weeks and days leading to the finals night.
