PLDT Global Corp. (PGC), the international retail arm of Filipino telco PLDT Inc., has partnered with Singaporean tech firm Conversant to introduce a new content delivery network in the territories where it operates.
The partnership broadens the reach of the Filipino digital services provider and “makes its services more accessible to clients across all borders,” as the content delivery network will act as a conduit for media companies, producers and e-commerce organizations to distribute their content globally.
“This partnership with Conversant will allow PGC to build a new digital marketplace for content providers and publishers,”said Albert Villa-Real, chief commercial officer at PLDT Global. “This will also help us achieve our mission to enable, empower, and delight the overseas Filipino community by giving them a greater Internet experience with the help of this platform.”
This also creates a new “avenue” for overseas Filipino workers in Guam, Japan, Australia, South Korea, and Dubai, to experience PGC’s digital products, services, and applications.
“Our team at Conversant is very excited to be part of PGC’s digital transformation program. Through this partnership, we are looking forward to providing them with a faster and more secure content delivery platform for their clients and subscribers,” said Cheong Kong Wai, CEO at Conversant.
