The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) projects a remarkable five-fold increase in data center capacity within the Philippines for the next five years. The 2023 Q1 market report by S&P Global Market Intelligence also showed a 13 percent compound annual growth rate in the country's data center operational space between 2020-2025 amid the ongoing expansion of hyperscalers and significant interests of global enterprises in the country.

Supporting the local data center race is PLDT and its ICT subsidiary, ePLDT, with a current 65 percent market share and further plans for expansion to position the Philippines as the regional hyperscaler hub in the Asia Pacific Region.
