Asec Pinky Jimenez Named ‘Inspiring Filipina Engineer’; To Be Honored in Global Conference, Featured in Commemorative Publication

The entire DICT Region 2 and OASIM community beams with pride as it extends its warmest congratulations to one of its own: Assistant Secretary Pinky Tumaliuan Jimenez, who has been selected as one of the distinguished honorees for the Inspiring Filipina Engineer recognition.

This prestigious accolade celebrates outstanding women engineers across the country who have demonstrated exceptional leadership, technical brilliance, and meaningful contributions to their fields and to society. Asec. Pinky was chosen for her unwavering dedication, exemplary service, and the high standard of excellence she has set throughout her career.

She will formally receive the honor during the Opening Ceremonies of the 20th International Conference of Women Engineers and Scientists (ICWES20), a global gathering of women in STEM, which will be co-located with the 10th Philippine Women Engineers and Scientists Summit (PWESS10). The event is scheduled for August 5, 2026, at the Royce Hotel and Casino in the Clark Freeport Zone.

Adding to this milestone, Asec. Pinky’s remarkable journey and achievements will also be immortalized in the upcoming Inspiring Filipina Engineer Coffee Table Book (Batch 2 Edition) — a special publication that highlights the stories, contributions, and legacies of trailblazing Filipino women engineers who continue to pave the way for future generations.

For the DICT Region 2 and OASIM family, this recognition means more than just an award. “This prestigious recognition is not only a testament to your exceptional leadership and technical excellence, but above all, it reflects your genuine brand of ‘service with a heart’,” the community shared in its tribute.

More than her expertise and accomplishments, it is her commitment to serving others with compassion and integrity that truly sets her apart — making her a deserving role model and a true inspiration to many.

Congratulations, Asec Pinky! Your hard work and dedication continue to bring honor to our region and our nation.
