Lenovo and DreamWorks’ long-standing technology collaboration helps power the technical work behind the film.

Behind the imaginative worlds, characters, and stories audiences see on screen is a technology foundation built to keep pace with increasingly ambitious creative work. For Lenovo and DreamWorks Animation, that foundation has grown through a long-standing technology relationship that brings together Lenovo workstations, high-performance computing infrastructure, data center technology, and services to support the studio’s artistic and technical teams.

The collaboration is helping power DreamWorks Animation’s production slate, including Forgotten Island, the studio’s new original animated feature inspired by Filipino culture, mythology, and experiences.

Forgotten Island follows lifelong best friends Jo and Raissa, voiced by Grammy and Academy Award winner H.E.R. and Filipino actress Liza Soberano. As the two prepare to take different paths after high school, they unexpectedly find themselves transported to Nakali, a fantastical island populated by magical and mythological creatures rooted in stories from their Filipino families.

The film is written and directed by Academy Award nominee Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado and produced by Academy Award nominee Mark Swift, the filmmaking team behind Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Its voice cast also includes Dave Franco, Jenny Slate, Manny Jacinto, Dolly de Leon, Jo Koy, Ronny Chieng, and Lea Salonga.

“Forgotten Island is particularly meaningful for us in the Philippines because it shows how a story deeply inspired by Filipino culture can connect with audiences on a global scale,” said Michael Ngan, President and General Manager of Lenovo Philippines. “At DreamWorks, there are countless creative decisions, ideas, and people working together. Our role at Lenovo is to provide technology that helps give those creators the performance and reliability they need so they can stay focused on what matters most—the story they want to tell.”

 

Technology Behind Animation

In 2025, DreamWorks expanded its relationship with Lenovo by naming the company its preferred compute services, workstation, and solutions provider. The collaboration brings together Lenovo workstations, high-performance computing infrastructure, data center technology, and services to support the demanding needs of modern animation production.

The collaboration builds on years of work between the two companies. DreamWorks has used Lenovo high-performance workstations as part of workflows across the studio, while Lenovo infrastructure has supported the large-scale computing requirements involved in creating animated worlds and characters.

“Every animated film begins with artists and storytellers, but bringing their ideas to the screen also requires a technology foundation capable of keeping pace with their imagination,” said Kate Swanborg, SVP, Technology Communications and Strategic Alliances, DreamWorks Animation. “With Forgotten Island, we had the opportunity to build a vibrant world inspired by Filipino culture and mythology. Having technology partners like Lenovo supporting our production environment helps our teams focus on creating the characters, environments, and moments that make that world feel alive.”

Filipino Inspiration for a Global Audience

Beyond the technology behind its creation, Forgotten Island puts Filipino culture at the heart of a story designed for audiences around the world.

At the center are Jo and Raissa’s friendship and the mysterious island of Nakali, where creatures and stories familiar to generations of Filipinos become part of a larger adventure about memory, change, and holding on to the people who matter.

For Lenovo Philippines, the film also illustrates how technology can serve as an enabler rather than the center of the creative process—giving creators the tools to translate ideas rooted in their own experiences into work capable of reaching audiences far beyond their home market.

“Technology is at its best when it helps people turn imagination into something others can experience,” Ngan added. “Seeing Filipino-inspired stories represented on this scale is something worth celebrating, and we are proud that Lenovo technology is helping support the creators bringing those stories to audiences around the world.”

Big Bad Wolf Books Brings Its Biggest, Best-Ever Selection Yet to BGC This Nov. 5

Manila, the wait is over. The Wolf is back!

Big Bad Wolf Books makes its much-awaited return to Metro Manila, bringing REALLY AWESOME BOOKS. REAL DISCOUNTS. to Park Triangle Mall in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) from November 5 to 15, 2026, marking the book sale’s first-ever event in BGC.

This year, Big Bad Wolf Books is bringing an even bigger and more exciting experience for Filipino readers, with a significantly wider selection of fiction, internationally bestselling titles, collectible editions, children’s books, and hard-to-find reads, alongside discounts of up to 95%. From trending authors like Rebecca Yarros, Sarah J. Maas, and Freida McFadden to special editions that are rarely available in the Philippines, there will be more books to discover, more stories to explore, and more reasons to keep hunting through the stacks.

Adding to the excitement is the arrival of Goldsboro Books, giving Filipino readers access to limited first-edition signed copies and serial-numbered books that would traditionally require a trip overseas to find. The sale will also feature Jeffrey Archer’s Adam & Eve, launching internationally in October and marking the acclaimed author’s final book—making them particularly meaningful finds for collectors and fans.

The experience is designed for every kind of reader, too. The expanded children’s selection, organized by age group, makes it easier for families to browse, while Unbelievable Titles starting at just ₱60 offer an easy invitation to pick up a book simply because something catches your eye.

The launch was also attended by Big Bad Wolf Books partners, including Tim Yap and Charmaine Palermo, who joined the celebration and shared in the call to make books and learning part of everyday life.

Encouraging everyone to make the most of the upcoming sale, Tim Yap invited guests and readers to “really immerse yourself in books” and give others “the gift of books,” which he described as “the gift of learning.” His message echoed the spirit of the Manila 2026 sale: that discovering a book can be more than a purchase. It can be an opportunity to learn, explore, and share something meaningful with others.

For Big Bad Wolf Books, the experience goes beyond simply finding a book on a reading list. Visitors can come looking for a bestselling author they already love and discover someone completely new, shop for a book for their children and find one for themselves, or stumble upon a rare edition they never expected to see in Manila.

Big Bad Wolf Books Manila 2026 is ultimately about discovery, more of the books people want to read, more books they didn’t know they were looking for, and more opportunities to take home something unexpected. With the sale open daily from 10:00 AM to midnight, readers will have more time to browse, hunt, and discover their next great find.

Hunting Beyond the Stacks: Really Awesome Books, Real Discounts

This year’s theme, "There’s a Book for Every Kind of You," takes the experience beyond the traditional idea of a reader. Gym-goer? There’s a book for you. Coffee obsessive? There’s a book for you. Gamer, designer, traveler, entrepreneur, home cook, music fan, parent, collector—or someone who hasn’t picked up a book in years? There’s a book for you, too.

Across their real-world interests, including food, fitness, travel, art, music, gaming, parenting, self-development, business, and hobbies, visitors can follow what they already love and see where the hunt takes them. Big Bad Wolf proves a simple truth: people don’t have to love books to find a book they’ll love.

When almost anything can be searched, clicked, and delivered in a few taps, Big Bad Wolf is bringing back something the algorithm cannot quite replicate: the tactile thrill of a book hunt. It’s the spontaneous joy of stumbling across a title you weren’t even looking for, at a bargain price you never expected.

A cover catches your eye. A title makes you stop. You spot an author you’ve been meaning to read, or a book you didn’t know existed. Then you check the price and realize it is coming home with you. That unpredictability has always been part of what makes the Big Bad Wolf experience so special.

Visitors can wander through stacks of unexpected finds, hunt for gifts ahead of the holiday season, discover new interests, and walk away with books they might never have searched for online.

From Screen Time to Play Time: Helping Kids Find the Strength to Do More

 For many parents, getting children to move more is no longer as simple as opening the front door. Between school, screens, and busy routines, active childhood now often must be built with intention.

That was the heart of Dani Barretto's recent conversation with Nikki Gil and nutrition expert Dr. Imelda Angeles-Agdeppa on The Bare It All Podcast. The episode opened with a reality check: DOST-FNRI data cited in the discussion show 77.5% of Filipino adolescents are not getting enough physical activity, with nearly 8 in 10 moving less than they should.

For Dani, the concern feels personal. She recalled a childhood where playing outside with neighbors was part of the day, and children usually went home when it was time to eat. Parenting now feels very different – instead of asking children to come home from play, many parents now find themselves encouraging them to go out, swim, kick a ball, or simply move. 

Nikki captured the shift: "Hindi na siya parang automatic. It needs to be scheduled." The conversation also showed why outdoor play can feel harder today: screens and on-demand entertainment, the convenience of staying indoors, fewer playgrounds, protective parenting, hot weather, and children who are already tired from school. Even when parents suggest going out later when it is cooler, Dr. Agdeppa noted that some children may say they no longer have the energy.

For Dr. Agdeppa, the issue is very serious. When children do not move enough, she explained, the imbalance between what they eat and the energy they spend can contribute to overweight and health risks at an early age. She also said lack of movement can lead to poor growth and development and keep muscle mass from developing to its optimum.

The effects are not only physical. Dr. Agdeppa explained that inactivity can affect brain development, focus, concentration and school performance. It can also shape confidence and social development. 

For Nikki, encouraging movement can start small. Instead of planning an elaborate activity, she shared that sometimes it begins with "removing that option from the table for a little bit" and letting children decide what to do next. Often, she observed, "it always ends up in active play" because children still have that instinct to move.

Still, the conversation did not treat technology as the enemy. Dani shared that it helped her daughter learn words, emotions and self-expression, while recognizing the need to balance screen time with toys, outdoor play and social interaction.

That balance begins with parents. Nikki shared that children follow what they see more than what they are repeatedly told to do. Her reminder was clear: "You really can't out lecture a bad example." Dr. Agdeppa echoed this with one simple habit: "Parents must actually eat and move together with their children."

The same principle applies to food – Dr. Agdeppa said physical movement and proper nutrition work together to support growth, development and motor skills. For busy parents, food that is both nourishing and kid-approved can make improved routines easier. Dani shared how Cheez Whiz has long been part of her family's table, from baked mac to fun-shaped school sandwiches, while Nikki called it a “win” when kids already enjoy something that also offers nutrients, especially when parents need a quick, reliable baon.

Through its "For the Strength to Do More" campaign, Cheez Whiz continues to champion active play supported by proper nutrition. As Nikki shared, the idea is about having enough fuel not just to get through the day, but to thrive, try something new, and do more. It also speaks to parents, reminding them that helping children build stronger habits starts with modeling those habits at home.

In the end, raising active children can begin with small, intentional choices: a shorter screen break, a sandwich prepared together, a walk outside, a new sport to try, or a parent modeling the habits they hope their children will build. With nourishment, movement and support, children can find the strength to play more, do more, and grow into the best versions of themselves.

Lenovo & Motorola Qira Expands Its Reach Across Devices, Apps and Markets

First unveiled at Tech World earlier this year, Lenovo & Motorola Qira is a personal AI designed to work seamlessly across compatible Lenovo and Motorola devices. At MWC in March, Lenovo began bringing that vision to market, announcing the initial rollout of Lenovo Qira across more than 20 Lenovo devices.

Today at Lenovo Innovation World during IFA 2026, Lenovo & Motorola Qira will be expanding across more devices, apps and markets by:

• Expanding support to eligible Lenovo PCs with 16GB of memory, broadening access beyond higher-memory configurations

• Expanding to eligible Motorola devices as they receive the Android 17 upgrade including select edge, signature and razr devices

• Integrating into moto watch ultra, the first wearable to support Lenovo & Motorola Qira

• Expanding connected experiences through supported applications and services including Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Slack, Outlook Mail, and Outlook Calendar through Lenovo’s new collaboration with Workato

Since the initial rollout earlier this year, Lenovo has brought Lenovo & Motorola Qira to more than 80 supported PC configurations across its commercial and consumer portfolios, as well as select tablets and Motorola smartphones. Lenovo & Motorola Qira currently supports six languages, with more coming. Lenovo plans to expand the experience to additional device families and form factors by the end of 2026.

One Personal AI Across More Devices

Lenovo & Motorola Qira is built with the insight that people rarely spend their day on a single device. An idea captured on a tablet may need to be continued later on a PC, while messages, notifications and meeting details can become scattered throughout the day. By bringing prioritized notification summaries and cross-device knowledge into one interface, Lenovo & Motorola Qira helps users catch up on what they missed, recall what matters and continue where they left off with less switching between apps and devices.

Support for eligible Lenovo PCs with 16GB of memory broadens access beyond higher-memory configurations, while continued local model optimization strengthens the on-device AI foundation behind Lenovo & Motorola Qira. Eligible users can download Lenovo Qira from the Lenovo website. Lenovo Qira will come preloaded on supported Lenovo devices at a later date.

Lenovo & Motorola Qira will soon expand to eligible Motorola devices as they receive the Android 17 upgrade. The rollout will take place gradually, with timing varying by device and market. On supported Motorola smartphones currently featuring moto ai and tablets currently featuring AI Now, the Android 17 upgrade will introduce Motorola Qira, bringing Motorola users a new generation of AI.

Motorola Qira will be integrated into the moto watch ultra, the first wearable on which it will be available.  Users will be able to raise their wrist or say "Hey Qira" to ask general questions or get information using Lenovo & Motorola Qira’s cross-device knowledge. 

“Personal AI should not be another app waiting for a prompt,” said Dan Dery, Vice President of AI Ecosystem, Lenovo. “It should understand what matters to you, move with you across devices and help orchestrate next steps across the agents, applications and services you choose. With this next evolution of Lenovo & Motorola Qira, we are bringing that vision closer to reality through intelligence that is built into the device, designed around the individual and developed with privacy, choice and control at its core.”

Expanding Across Everyday Apps and Services

Moving from intent to action often requires users to search across email, calendars and collaboration tools. Through Lenovo’s new collaboration with Workato, Lenovo & Motorola Qira can connect with select applications and services on supported devices, including Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Slack, Outlook Mail and Outlook Calendar, to help users find relevant information and complete actions.

This creates a more direct path from asking to doing while maintaining user permission and control. If a calendar event changes or an important update arrives in an email or group chat, users will not need to dig through separate apps to find it. They can instead use Catch Me Up and take action from the same interface.

Lenovo is also collaborating with Notion and expanding Lenovo & Motorola Qira’s Perplexity integration, so users can keep making progress in the things that matter to them like moodboards, documents, and research – without switching apps or devices. 

Users will be able to connect their Notion account to Lenovo & Motorola Qira so that they can edit and pull up information from their projects, right from Lenovo & Motorola Qira. With Lenovo & Motorola Qira’s expanded Perplexity integration, users will be able to do more deep research, including often getting visual references for their interests and goals. 

Privacy, security and user control are foundational to Lenovo & Motorola Qira. Its hybrid, local-first architecture prioritizes on-device processing where supported, with information that is added to a user’s personal knowledge base encrypted and stored locally. When cloud processing is needed for a requested experience, Lenovo & Motorola Qira sends only the prompt and relevant context required for that request through secure, encrypted cloud services. 

Availability

The availability, timing and experience of the features showcased at IFA and described above may vary by device, market, configuration and platform. Some features may require software updates, user permission, supported applications or services, account sign-in, internet connectivity, or specific hardware and software configurations. App integrations and connected app functionality may vary by market, service and account type.

Stop Rabies expands to Siargao, strengthening community partnerships for rabies prevention

Stop Rabies, a global initiative of Boehringer Ingelheim implemented in partnership with the GARC Rabies Alliance, expands to Siargao to strengthen rabies prevention through education, vaccination, animal population control, and responsible pet ownership across the island. 

Previously rolled out in Puerto Galera, Marinduque, Laguna, and Negros Occidental, Stop Rabies works with local governments, schools, veterinarians, and community partners to help more Filipinos recognize rabies risks, respond immediately after animal bites, and seek timely vaccination.

Despite being entirely preventable, rabies continues to pose a public health challenge in the Philippines, where hundreds of deaths are recorded annually and millions of animal bite cases are reported each year. As communities observe World Rabies Day, efforts to strengthen awareness, encourage responsible pet ownership, and expand access to preventive measures continue across different parts of the country. 

“Rabies prevention starts with informed communities, vaccinated dogs and cats, and shared responsibility,” said Dr. Michael Banawa, Head of Animal Health, Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Philippines, Inc. “Through Stop Rabies, Boehringer Ingelheim remains committed to advancing sustainable rabies prevention to protect animals, safeguard public health, and help build healthier communities.”

Bringing rabies education to more communities

Since its launch in the Philippines, Stop Rabies has expanded its community-based education efforts across Luzon and the Visayas, reaching thousands of students and empowering local stakeholders to strengthen rabies prevention at the grassroots level.

In Puerto Galera, the initiative reached more than 2,300 elementary students while helping equip frontline responders with knowledge and skills on rabies prevention and response. Building on its initial work in Calauan, Laguna, the program also expanded to Los Baños, where it reached over 8,000 students across 11 schools through school-based awareness activities.

In Negros Occidental, Stop Rabies partnered with the local government and the Department of Education to introduce rabies awareness videos in schools in Bacolod City, while conducting community and school-based education sessions in Victorias City.

Building on these experiences, Stop Rabies will expand to Siargao this October through a partnership with the local government, the GARC Rabies Alliance, and the Field Epidemiology Training Program Alumni Foundation, Inc. (FETPAFI). The rollout will bring together community-based education, mass dog and cat vaccination, spay and neuter activities, and responsible pet ownership to support ongoing rabies prevention efforts across the island.

“Rabies education saves lives because it gives people the knowledge to act before it is too late,” said Dr. Niko Ylagan, Stop Rabies Lead and Companion Animal Health Technical Manager, Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Philippines, Inc. “Beyond classroom sessions, Stop Rabies helps communities build sustained rabies awareness and make prevention part of everyday life.”

Rabies education saves lives

Rabies remains one of the most fatal yet most preventable infectious diseases. In the Philippines, the disease is estimated to claim 300 to 400 lives annually, while around four million animal bite cases are recorded nationwide each year.

Recent rabies-related deaths involving children have once again drawn attention to the importance of seeking immediate medical care following an animal bite or scratch, highlighting how delays in treatment can lead to tragic consequences.,,

Children and low-income families remain among those most affected, making awareness at home, in schools, and in communities especially important. Immediate wound washing, prompt medical consultation, and timely post-exposure vaccination can prevent rabies before symptoms appear.

Rabies education helps children, families, schools, and communities recognize rabies risks, prevent dog bites, and respond immediately after an animal bite or scratch. It also corrects misconceptions that delay treatment, including the belief that only stray dogs carry rabies or that small bites or scratches are harmless. Health experts note that even healthy-looking but unvaccinated pets can transmit the virus, making immediate medical assessment essential after any potential rabies exposure.

Boehringer Ingelheim remains committed to supporting the global goal of eliminating human deaths from dog-mediated rabies by 2030 through its Stop Rabies program and partnerships with local communities and stakeholders. 

Pet owners can help prevent rabies by ensuring their dogs are vaccinated and practicing responsible pet ownership.
