    Regus Group finds RP property market strong 
     
    By Max V. de Leon

    SEEING a strong potential in the Philippine property market, global provider of outsourced workplace solutions Regus Group is keen on expanding here by putting up at least two more business centers this year.

    Regus launched Thursday its third facility in Metro Manila at the Net Cube Building in Fort Bonifacio’s Global City, with 1,134 square meters of prime office space.

    The center offers 49 fully furnished offices with dedicated conference and meeting room facilities, coupled with state-of-the-art information technology and telecommunications infrastructure.

    Regus’ other centers in the Philippines are at the Enterprise Center and Philamlife Tower, both in the Makati business district.

    “This new center is an important part of our Southeast Asia expansion plans,” said William Willems, country general manager for Regus in Southeast Asia.

    The Philippines, Willems said, is an important emerging market in Southeast Asia, given its highly skilled, English-proficient workforce and low infrastructural costs. “The country is undoubtedly one of the most popular outsourcing destinations in the region.”

    With this, Willems said the company is eyeing to put up business centers in the Central Philippine province of Cebu and Metro Manila’s Ortigas business district in the next 12 months.

    Depending on demand, Regus has contingency for another facility in Global City.

    Regus’ current clients in the Philippines include Lawson, IBM, Lenovo, McCann and Nokia.

    Regus’ business centers offer increased flexibility in terms of rent, space and support services to help customers better manage their property needs and focus on the development of their core businesses.
