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. |
