State-run Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) said it signed a memorandum of understanding with PhilTower MIDC, a joint venture of Miescor Infrastructure Development Corp. and Phil-Tower Consortium Inc., to enhance digital connectivity across key BCDA properties including Bonifacio Global City, New Clark City and Morong Discovery Park.
“PhilTower MIDC, with its comprehensive portfolio and deep industry knowledge, is uniquely positioned to support BCDA’s ambition to drive innovation, efficiency, and sustainability within the country’s digital infrastructure,” said BCDA president and chief executive Joshua Bingcang.
The partnership will focus on developing advanced telecommunications infrastructure to drive innovation and efficiency in these strategic locations.
PhilTower MIDC, a leader in shared telecommunications infrastructure, will install common towers at BCDA sites.
Leveraging its expertise and resources, PhilTower aims to improve connectivity and contribute to the Philippines’ ongoing digital transformation.
PhilTower established rooftop infrastructure at the Government Building and the National Academy of Sports in New Clark City which major providers Globe and Smart are utilizing to enhance the area’s digital capabilities.
Bingcang said the recent development is a critical step in strengthening the digital landscape, not only in urban hubs but also in emerging zones like New Clark City and Morong Discovery Park.
PhilTower MIDC president and chief executive Devid Gubiani said he is looking forward to working with the BCDA on the technology front.
“Through this partnership, we aim not only to enhance connectivity but also to drive socio-economic growth in vital hubs such as Bonifacio Global City and New Clark City,” he said.
