The PLDT Group bolsters its mission to help make the Philippines Southeast Asia's next hyperscale hub. At the Telecoms World Asia conference in Bangkok, Thailand, PLDT Enterprise's Asia-Pacific regional head, Jeff Mendoza, emphasizes the critical role played by PLDT in creating the digital infrastructure required by the country's transformation into a regional hyperscale powerhouse.
At the conference, the premiere event on digital solutions and services for Asian Telcos, Mendoza discussed the emergence of holistic digital ecosystems in support of the Philippines' fast-paced digitalization–particularly, the steps that the PLDT Group has taken in the last two years, cementing its lead in the industry and reinforcing its commitment to drive the country's digital capabilities forward.
"Over the past few years, we have witnessed unprecedented digital adoption in the region, especially in the Philippines," says Mendoza. "Google's latest e-Conomy SEA report shows the Philippines as the frontrunner in Southeast Asia with its digital economy expected to be sustained at a CAGR of 20% through 2025."
VITRO Sta. Rosa, the largest and most advanced hyperscale data center in the Philippines, is among PLDT's notable investments in digital infrastructure, and adds to its current network of 10 data centers that host the country's richest IP ecosystem.
The recently launched Jupiter Subsea Cable System, together with upcoming international cable systems ADC and Apricot, further deepen PLDT's digital infrastructure investments.
Together, these form PLDT's response to the rapidly growing requirements of the country's thriving digital economy—driven by a young digital-savvy population and the strong propensity to use cloud across business sectors.
As PLDT continues to build world-class digital infrastructure to strengthen the Philippines' position as the next hyperscale destination in Southeast Asia, it continues its close collaboration with key government agencies, the Department of Trade and Industry, the Board of Investments, and the Department of Information and Communications Technology, to enable the country's digital ecosystem.
These government entities continue to support the digital thrust by enabling policies that promote cloud computing as the preferred technology for administration and delivery of government services, and laws that grant fiscal and non-fiscal incentives for high-value strategic investments such as digital infrastructure.
PLDT's efforts to help drive the Philippines as the next hyperscale hub is guided by an even bigger mission to help build a sustainable future for Filipinos. PLDT remains dedicated to its efforts and initiatives that strongly support UNSDG No. 9: 'Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization, and foster innovation'.
