Malacañang said President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. secured about P56.3 billion in potential investments from major Japanese firms during separate meetings on May 28.
The investments cover shipbuilding, electronics manufacturing, semiconductor production, AI-driven technologies, and green maritime industries.
These projects are expected to generate around 10,300 jobs across the Philippines.
Marcos held talks with Tsuneishi Group, Furukawa Electric, Sumitomo Electric, and MinebeaMitsumi to discuss expansion plans in the country.
The Palace also said the broader state visit has so far generated up to P210 billion in total investment commitments from Japanese companies.
