In a move set to redefine the creator economy in the Philippines, renowned brand curator and master collaborator, one of the top entrepreneurs in Asia, and who was once listed at the youngest person in Forbes Richest List in the Philippines, Robbie Antonio is poised to sign an exclusive marketing agreement with tech visionary Lucy Guo for her new company, Passes.

A meeting of minds: Lucy Guo and Robbie Antonio

The agreement is built on a friendship and mutual respect between two innovators. Lucy Guo, often hailed as the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire, made her mark as the co-founder of Scale AI, a groundbreaking artificial intelligence data-labeling company. She even surpassed Taylor Swift in achieving billionaire status at a younger age – a milestone that underscores her place among the most remarkable success stories of her generation. Guo’s latest venture, Passes, continues that trajectory – combining bold vision with practical tools to disrupt the creator economy and help creators transition from content makers into true entrepreneurs.

Introducing Passes

Passes is the first creator commerce company – a next-generation platform that empowers creators with the data, insights, and tools they need to take control of their businesses. Unlike traditional platforms that take a heavy cut of creator earnings, Passes is built to maximize creator ownership. Creators on Passes gain access to actionable data-driven insights to better understand their audiences and lower fees with instant payouts that let them keep around 90% of earnings. The platform also offers a comprehensive suite of tools, including pay-per-minute one-on-one calls, live streaming, personalized messaging, and exclusive e-commerce stores. In a bold move that underscores its commitment to creators, Passes also implemented a one-year zero-fee policy on its Shop feature as of August 26, allowing creators to retain 100% of their digital product sales – a stark contrast to industry norms where platforms take significant cuts. The platform is designed to help creators build a sustainable business and foster a direct, authentic relationship with their audience.

Partnership with Resident Holdings

The exclusive marketing agreement for the Philippines will be overseen by Robbie Antonio’s Resident Holdings which specializes in building businesses through strategic collaborations with a vast network of global personalities and celebrities.

Robbie Antonio, Versace Home bring new vision to branded residences in Manila

MANILA, Philippines — In 2011, Robbie Antonio led the development of The Milano Residences, one of the first residential towers in Asia to feature interiors designed by Versace Home.

The development, located within Century City in Makati City, fused Italian fashion with modern urban living in the Philippines and has helped shape branded residences in the market.

Featuring its signature Greek motifs with baroque influences, Versace’s imprint elevated the common areas of the Milano, from its grand lobby and spa to the library and lounge. Buyers were also offered the option to furnish their own units with curated Versace Home pieces, turning personal spaces into immersive design statements.

Branded real estate as global signal

Antonio’s collaboration with Versace was driven not only by aesthetic considerations but also by strategic intent. By partnering with a globally revered fashion house, The Milano Residences helped set the Philippines ready to compete on the world stage for branded luxury development.

The project introduced a new narrative where design, brand equity and cultural relevance converged.

This brand alignment laid the foundation for his future collaborations with other international brands such as MissoniHome, Armani/Casa and other global names, each contributing to Antonio’s growing influence in lifestyle-driven real estate.

Legacy influence on JAGI’s vision

Now with the family’s private office the Jose Antonio Group Inc. (JAGI), Robbie Antonio continues to apply this design-led strategy across ventures. The Versace collaboration became a reference point and proof that lifestyle, aspiration and business can co-exist within development models.

Today, as the private family office plans to grow into other sectors including consumer media and technology, the spirit of The Milano Residences remains influential. It represents a broader vision: to raise the bar for Filipino developments through internationally informed standards and design that resonates with local culture.

JAGI CEO charts company’s bold future, anchoring investments on innovation and global vision

Robbie Antonio, known for his bold approach to branded real estate and global design collaborations, now leads a broader mission as CEO of Jose Antonio Group, Inc. (JAGI) – the newly consolidated private investment vehicle of the Antonio family.

Under Antonio’s leadership, JAGI is repositioning itself as a strategic investor in high-impact sectors including real estate, technology, healthcare, consumer goods, and financial services. The goal: to champion “transformative growth” across industries and place the Philippines on the global map for innovation-driven investments.

 

“Our mission at JAGI is to create long-term value through strategic partnerships and forward-thinking ventures,” Antonio said. “We want to be a partner of choice – not just in the Philippines, but for the world.”

From real estate to a broader investment vision

Antonio first made headlines for pioneering branded luxury residences in the Philippines, teaming up with global icons such as Versace Home, Armani/Casa, and Paris Hilton. Projects like Trump Tower Manila, The Milano Residences, and Century Spire established a new standard for premium real estate and drew international attention to Philippine design and development.

His ventures blended art, architecture, and commerce – a creative mindset he now brings to JAGI’s diversified investment approach. “Real estate remains a cornerstone,” Antonio said, “but our strategy today extends far beyond it. We’re investing in ideas that shape the future.”

Impact-driven expansion: digital inclusion and tourism

JAGI’s recent initiatives reflect its evolving mission to deliver both value and impact. Among these is a strategic collaboration with iWave, aimed at expanding access to broadband connectivity in underserved regions of the Philippines through Starlink’s satellite internet technology. The initiative supports inclusive growth by enabling digital access for education, healthcare, and livelihoods in far-flung communities.

 

Meanwhile, in Palawan, JAGI is developing a landmark hospitality project that merges ecological preservation with responsible tourism. The development will also introduce a more inclusive take on luxury travel.

“Our villas in Palawan will be more affordable than the ultra-luxury resorts typically associated with Palawan,” Antonio explained. “They may be smaller in scale, but the goal is to make luxury vacations more attainable for a broader market.”

With these moves, JAGI underscores its focus on socially relevant ventures – pairing innovation with accessibility while contributing to national development.

JAGI: A legacy reinvented

With over three decades of luxury development under its belt, JAGI now positions itself as a next-generation investment firm – agile, diversified, and purpose-driven.

Antonio’s leadership brings a renewed clarity to the group’s vision. His investment philosophy centers on partnership, innovation, and adaptability, and he’s keen on supporting entrepreneurs and visionary companies with shared values.

“Give it a shot,” Antonio said when asked about advice for young leaders. “You never know where the road will take you. The mindset is simple – never give up.”
