About Us
Global Resource Creative Exchange, Inc. or GRCX for purposes of brevity was incorporated in August of 2002 but has been in existence for more than twenty (20) years under its old name GR Creative Management Services, Inc. It was basically a talent management firm handling then the careers of professional artists such as Kuh Ledesma, Ivy Violan, Ric Segreto, Mitch Valdes, Subas Herrero, Noel Trinidad and Celeste Legaspi. During that time, the Philippine entertainment industry was getting more aggressive and Girlie Rodis, the company’s President, had a vision of professionalizing it.
Aside from talent management, the company was also involved in a lot of other things. It handled consultancy work for special
projects of Gift Gate, Inc., Japan Foundation and JHU Population Communication Services. It also ventured into the realm of television, theater and film production., events management, and casting.
Today, GRCX is managing and booking premiere talents with the goal of promoting the Filipino talent through professionalism and a full service complement for both its talents and their clients.
