Ricardo “Ricky” S. Guevara

Ricky Guevara is a quiet force — equal parts philosopher and pioneer. Born in Manila but shaped by time in Michigan, he blends global vision with Filipino heart. A graduate of AB Philosophy from the University of the Philippines, Ricardo applied the rigor of thought to the rigors of business. From modest beginnings with Karrera Car Accessories, he steered KONIG Importers N.A. into the fast lane of the U.S. market — redefining alloy wheel importation before selling to a public company in 2005. A brief but impactful stint at Sony Music as a Macintosh resource person reflected his uncanny adaptability. Now, as Chairman, President, and CEO of Guevent Investments Development Corporation, he remains rooted in enterprise, yet elevated by insight. Married to Fiona Palaypay Guevara and seasoned by decades of global entrepreneurship, Ricky continues to navigate with purpose, proving that the finest leaders are thinkers first — and trailblazers always.
