Career executive Aileen Anunciacion Zosa is the first woman president and chief executive officer (PCEO) of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA).
Zosa took her oath of office as the new BCDA PCEO before President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in Malacañan Palace on August 11.
Zosa will continue the infrastructure thrust of the previous administration. She will focus on revenue generation, especially for the Armed Forces of the Philippines modernization, and in strengthening the BCDA organization to be more responsive and efficient in the delivery of projects.
“For the development of our properties, we have introduced three major components that will distinguish our properties from the pack and make our projects more globally competitive. These are sustainability, gender diversity and gender sensitivity, as well as smart components. Our projects should embed those three important elements. I hope that my experiences and perspective as a career executive and as a woman continue to bring a different lens on approaching opportunities and challenges for BCDA,” said Zosa.
Zosa brings 27 years of institutional knowledge with the BCDA and know-how in the fields of business development and public policy, aside from more than a decade’s worth of experience in various academic and bureaucratic positions in the public sector including the Senate, the Office of the President, and the Commission on Audit.
