        The primary objective of APJFI is to inculcate and promote the true qualities of patriotic and responsible business leadership exemplified by the late business leader Aurelio Periquet Jr. For the past eight years, the Foundation has been conducting the Aurelio Periquet Jr. Business Leadership Awards together with the Manila Jaycees, The Philippine Chamber of Commerce & Industry and the Metrobank Foundation, Inc. This prestigious award is being conferred annually by the President of the Philippines to outstanding and innovative businessmen who are not only successful in their field, but have also dedicated their lives in the service of the country.

        The Foundation, however, believes that the making of an excellent, responsible and well-rounded businessman starts in the universities where young people are trained in their respective areas of interest. That is why the Foundation takes part in the total development of the young people through the conduct of seminars and workshops that instill the correct business values, leadership skills and love of country. The seminar series is envisioned to reach the young and future business leaders and entrepreneurs and provide them skills and information that will help form important business values to guide them throughout their careers.
