As Filinvest Group celebrates 70 years of visionary development, its flagship township Filinvest City welcomes PLDT Inc., the country’s largest integrated telecommunications company, as its newest major locator. The tech conglomerate unveils plans to develop the country’s first tech campus in Filinvest City’s Southgate District—marking a game-changing moment in the Garden City’s evolution.

This milestone agreement results from years of strategic planning by PLDT in selecting the perfect headquarters location, ultimately choosing Filinvest City for its world-class infrastructure, green spaces, and future-ready master plan.

The planned five-hectare PLDT campus, envisioned as the telecommunications group’s future headquarters, is slated for progressive development with initial phases commencing soon. Drawing inspiration from leading global tech campuses, the project reflects PLDT’s long-term commitment to building an innovative workplace environment.

We hope it will inspire creativity, encourage teamwork, and support the future of PLDT.”

The tech campus will serve as a space for innovation, collaboration, and digital transformation, bringing together talent and technology while fostering agility and forward-thinking that reflects PLDT’s commitment to shaping Philippine connectivity’s future.
