Converge Information and Communications Technology Solutions Inc. (Converge) teamed up with First Philippine Industrial Park (FPIP) to deliver world-class connectivity solutions to the industrial park’s 600-hectare hub.
The partnership will enable Converge to leverage FPIP’s dark fiber infrastructure, providing seamless and fiber-fast connectivity to the industrial park’s over 150 locators and more than 70,000 locator-employees.
“Industrial parks such as FPIP, whose main clientele are multinationals, are major engines of economic growth not just for CALABARZON but for the entire country. This is the reason why these economic zones must be state-of-the-art and second to none: these are crucial in bringing in foreign investments,” Converge chief executive and co-founder Dennis Anthony Uy said.
“Converge is proud to be one of the chosen providers of connectivity in this world-class industrial park, where we believe we can add even more to their competitive edge,” he said.
The commercial agreement with FPIP is the first major project under the newly-formed Converge Global Business Group, which is dedicated to providing high-speed, reliable, and scalable connectivity and technology solutions for enterprises across the Philippines.
It will also include comprehensive digital transformation services, enabling the businesses within FPIP to adopt next-generation technologies, including cloud services, cybersecurity solutions, and digital collaboration tools.
The holistic approach to connectivity will further strengthen FPIP’s position as a premier manufacturing hub of choice in the Philippines and across the Asia-Pacific region.
“We recognize the critical role that advanced connectivity solutions play in the day-to-day operations of FPIP locators. That is why we are committed to investing in robust digital infrastructures and cutting-edge connectivity,” said Federico Lopez, chairman and chief executive of First Philippine Holdings said.
“We are confident that Converge will deliver these crucial services to FPIP, which will foster innovation, enhance operational efficiency, and drive growth for the locators within the industrial park,” he said.
FPIP is one of the leading and fastest-growing industrial parks in the country. Established in 1996, it is host to domestic and export-oriented global manufacturing leaders in diverse sectors, including Canon Business Machines, Inc., Collins Aerospace, Dyson, Honda Philippines Inc. and Nestle Philippines Inc.
