SM Prime is betting on the booming BPO sector as it sets to open another office tower in Santa Rosa, Laguna in the first quarter of 2017. Built right next to SM Santa Rosa (SMSR), the new BPO tower will have a leasable area of approximately 30,000 square meters, a majority of which will be allotted solely for BPO companies. But the company is providing flexibility for smaller cuts that cater to SME (small to medium-sized enterprises) operations. Dubbed the “investment capital of South Luzon,” Santa Rosa is being eyed as a hub for BPOs and other businesses given its proximity to Metro Manila, but minus the congestion.
