In celebration of women who have not only touched the lives of their family and friends, but of thousands of moms across the Philippines, theAsianparent held its first Mother’s Day event on May 28, 2015.

Dubbed Mommy Mixer 2015, the event celebrated 30 Marvelous Moms who contribute greatly in empowering Filipino moms and continue to strengthen the local mommy community.

Mommy influencers from bloggers to mompreneurs to celebrities were welcomed to Hiyas Modern Filipino Comfort Food and were delighted to see that the restaurant had been transformed into a more feminine setting with red and blue flowers, representing the colors of theAsianparent brand.

"Fast Fact" cards were also placed on the dining tables to share bits of trivia about theAsianparent and some of the key insights of our 2015 Asian Digital Mom Report.

The 2015 Asian Digital Mom Report is a market research report that highlights trends in the social media habits and online behavior of moms. It revealed that Asian moms increase their use of the Internet once they become mothers, are increasingly mobile-first and are the primary decision makers for household purchases.

The discussion of the 2015 Asian Digital Mom Report prompted several of the mommy guests to nod their heads in agreement as insights on the Filipino mom’s social media habits were revealed. The moms at the event realized that they, too, were part of the 88% of Filipino moms who use Facebook messenger as her primary messaging app.
