ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) Philippines has increased its data center capacity with the opening of its upgraded facility in Makati City.

“Our mission is to enable our digital future not only in the Philippines but across the world. Our reputation is built on delivering what we promise, a principle that remains central to our strategy. At STT GDC, we don’t just articulate our vision — we ensure that our partners and customers can count on us to execute with precision and reliability,” Carlo Malana, president and chief executive of STT GDC Philippines, said.
Ernest Cu, Globe president and chief executive, said data centers are essential for powering its digital services and solutions.
“As we expand STT GDC Philippines, we get closer to our dream of turning the Philippines into a preferred location for hyperscalers in Southeast Asia, driving digitalization and uplifting the lives of Filipinos by creating more opportunities for them,” Cu said.
Jaime Alfonso Zobel de Ayala, ACMobility CEO and STT GDC Philippines board director, the goal is to position the Philippines as a regional hub for data storage.
“As we see growth in the data center business, we are constantly on the lookout for ways that we can harness the synergies across the Ayala group to make sure that we’re positioning this as best as possible,” said Ayala.
