Converge ICT Solutions Inc. (Converge), the top fiber internet service provider in the Philippines, recently made a significant move in expanding fiber technology by launching its brand and products on the island of Boracay. During a launch event held at at Hennan Palm Beach Resort Boracay this week, local business owners, LGUs, industry associations, and members of the media were urged by Converge Co-Founder and CEO, Dennis Anthony Uy to embrace digital transformation to enhance their operations and better cater to the needs of tech-savvy travelers.
“We started to venture outside of Luzon two years ago so our entry into the country’s hottest tourist destinations is an achievement for us. We are finally here in Boracay so now businesses of every size can harness the full potential of digitization with our pure fiber connectivity and tailored solutions. Our service does not only mean a better digital experience for their customers but a more seamless way of working and operating,” according to Uy.
The event saw Converge present its extensive line of products and services from all its segments (residential, SME, and Enterprise), followed by a fireside Q&A session later in the day with company heads and experts.
“We are ecstatic to finally be able to celebrate our arrival with the people of Boracay. We worked hard to be able to reach its shores, and we are proud to have made the effort and investments in expanding our fiber footprint here. We want to provide the residents and businesses of Boracay with the best possible experience through our fast, reliable, consistent, and affordable digital solutions. With world-class fiber broadband connectivity, we assure you, Boracay will be a paradise reborn,” said Converge Chief Operations Officer Jesus C. Romero.
With the lifting of pandemic restrictions and the government’s seven-month closure to rehabilitate the island, the hospitality industry anticipates a significant boost in tourism as Converge arrives on the island of Boracay. As a result, businesses and their patrons are expected to benefit from seamless, secure, and uninterrupted business-grade connectivity services, which local government officials have declared will contribute to an increase in the island’s revenue and establish its reputation as a world-class travel destination. In addition, local residents can now access stable and affordable internet through Converge’s flagship connectivity product, FiberX.
“We see Boracay beyond the lens of being a tourist destination. Local residents and small and medium enterprises within the island are just as important to us, so we are also offering the same wide range of award-winning, reasonably priced products to them that our subscribers from other parts of the country already enjoy. At Converge, we always make sure that we are offering the best connectivity solutions to uplift everyone,” Converge Marketing Head Orange Ramirez said.
The island paradise’s vibrant nightlife and pristine white sand shores attract a continuous stream of tourists, making sustainability crucial. Pure end-to-end fiber technology ensures that guests have reliable connections that enhance their experience, providing them with something they can cherish forever.
