Before electrifying fans in Taipei with their “Simula at Wakas” world tour, P-pop powerhouse SB19 made a special stop—not at a concert venue, but at Acer’s global headquarters, where they suited up as “one-day employees.”
Welcomed with open arms, Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin weren’t just honored guests—they were celebrated as long-time collaborators by no less than Acer Chairman and CEO Jason Chen and Pan-Asia Pacific President Andrew Hou. To commemorate their five-year journey together, each SB19 member received a Predator Helios 18 gaming laptop, a cutting-edge gift that symbolized their enduring bond with the tech giant.
The visit was far from ordinary. SB19 got hands-on at Acer’s Product Experience Center, testing out the latest in gaming tech and smart wearables, including the innovative FreeSense Ring from Acer Fashion. They even flexed their creative muscles during a design workshop, where they brainstormed aesthetics for future laptops and compact home appliances—proving that their talents extend beyond the stage.
Acer played a key role as co-presenter of SB19’s Taipei concert, underscoring a partnership that’s more than just branding.
“SB19 is more than a brand ambassador for Acer. They are our brand partner,” said Princess Laosantos, Senior Marketing Manager at Acer Philippines. “They’ve helped elevate our visibility and build trust with our audience. Together, we’ve made tech and music collide in the best ways possible.”
And the results speak volumes.
In the first quarter of 2025, Acer dominated the Philippine PC market, capturing:
- 35.7% total market share
- 34.2% in consumer notebooks
- A commanding 40.6% in gaming laptops, according to data from GfK.
SB19’s partnership with Acer goes way back—even before their official ambassadorship for Acer Day and endorsements for Acer and Acerpure in 2021. This synergy of innovation and star power continues to inspire, engage, and entertain tech-savvy fans around the globe.
