Globe Group highlights innovation and climate resiliency at GSMA M360 APAC in Seoul
The Globe Group showcased its innovative approach to addressing the effects of climate change at the recent GSMA M360 Asia Pacific conference. The event, which took place for the first time in Seoul, South Korea, brought together industry leaders from across the region to discuss the future of mobile technology and its impact on the economies of Asia Pacific countries.
Rofil Sheldon Magto, Senior Manager for Regional Communications at Globe, emphasized the company's commitment to addressing climate-related challenges. He joined other renowned speakers during a panel discussion about the role of the mobile industry in fostering resilience to disasters titled "What’s Next in the Connected World? - ‘Enhanced Connectivity for tomorrow.’"
“The Globe Group understands that technology plays a vital role in mitigating the impacts of disasters. However, we also acknowledge that we cannot do it alone and addressing these challenges requires a combination of innovation, governance, and strong multi-stakeholder partnerships,” he pointed out.
Magto also underscored the importance of collaboration in addressing climate risks.
“Public-private partnerships (PPPs) play a significant role in mitigating disaster risks by incorporating robust disaster risk management practices and offering opportunities to pool resources, expertise, and experience. This collaboration helps facilitate immediate access to information and enable swift response to affected communities, as outlined by the principles of the Humanitarian Connectivity Charter,” he said, referring to the GSMA document that signifies the commitment of 160 mobile network operators from 112 countries to improved access to communication and information in support of humanitarian response.
Magto noted that the Philippines is one of the world’s most vulnerable countries to disasters, with multiple typhoons visiting annually, and risks of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, among others. Such risks are amplified by disinformation, fueled by heavy social media use among Filipinos.
Kimberly Brown, Head of the GSMA Mobile for Humanitarian Innovation programme, affirmed the key role the mobile industry plays in fostering disaster resilience.
“Mobile operators, such as Globe, are instrumental in disseminating life-saving early warnings. They are also at the forefront of leveraging emerging technologies, such as responsible AI by design, to improve how societies prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters,” she said.
Globe's approach to climate-related challenges includes the deployment of early warning systems and monitoring in collaboration with various agencies. In 2021, the company, in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS), launched the G-Climate platform, which uses predictive analytics and weather data to improve business resilience during disasters.
Globe has also been proactive in emergency response and disaster recovery. It deploys booths offering free mobile and internet access in calamity-stricken areas. Globe also uses its donation platforms to gather nationwide support, with funds sent to non-government organization (NGO) partners to provide immediate relief. Globe also offers free access to verified government websites that provide information on emergencies.
Additionally, Globe has equipped local government units with the M360 platform, offering free SMS blast services for 30 days to aid in disaster relief and recovery operations. The company also ensures that its cell sites and data centers are resilient enough to withstand Category 5 typhoons and are equipped with hybrid solar generators for backup power.
The GSMA is a global organization unifying over 1,000 mobile operators and businesses across the ecosystem and related industries to advance innovation and reduce inequalities around the world.
At the GSMA M360 APAC conference, attendees delved into how digital technologies and services are integrating into every sector of the economy, offering both new use cases and long-term sustainable solutions. The event also featured speakers from Ookla, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison and Tony Blair Institute for Global Change on how mobile innovations will improve people's lives.
Globe's participation in the GSMA M360 APAC conference underscores its commitment to leveraging technology, governance, and partnerships to address the challenges posed by climate change and ensure a resilient future for all.

GCash launches new ‘GCash Card’ powered by Visa
- Gives millions of unbanked Filipinos access to benefits of having a payment card
The Philippines’ leading finance super app, GCash, teams up with global payments leader Visa to introduce the new GCash Card – giving millions of unbanked Filipinos access to the benefits of owning a payment card.
“GCash is giving every Filipino, whoever or wherever they are, the benefits of owning a card, especially those with no bank accounts or documents typically required to apply for a card. These include Filipinos with informal sources of incomes like freelancers and independent professionals as well as micro and small enterprises,” said Ren-Ren Reyes, president and CEO of G-Xchange, the mobile wallet operator of GCash.
With the new GCash Card, more Filipinos, especially those busy with the daily hustle, can have access to another cashless payment option which they can use for their everyday expenses like groceries, restaurants, and transportation. The GCash Card can be used by customers to shop securely online on their favorite websites and apps. They can also use the card in physical retail stores simply by tapping or inserting the card in terminals.
“The new card powered by Visa unlocks more payment options for GCash users as they can use it at over 100 million merchants in the Philippines and across the world,” noted Reyes.
Any fully verified user can now order their own GCash Card powered by Visa through the app, without additional documents or approvals.
The launch of GCash Card’s aim is “Dahil Kaya All with the Card for All”, providing Filipinos with numerous benefits similar to those enjoyed by those with bank accounts, such as quick ATM withdrawals locally and abroad.
Powered by Visa’s global reach, the card can also be used for payments overseas in over 200 countries and territories, at over 100 million merchants. This gives traveling GCash Card users and overseas Filipinos another secure and convenient way of paying abroad – whether it be in restaurants, hotels, retail shops, convenience stores, ride-hailing apps and other transport services, as well as other merchants who accept Visa as payment.
Jeff Navarro, Visa’s Country Manager for the Philippines and Guam, said, “We are very happy to partner with GCash to provide the GCash Card to Filipinos, which paves the way to better financial inclusion. With the card’s contactless capability, it enables Filipino shoppers, especially those who don’t usually pay with cards, to shop conveniently and securely, joining millions around the world who have been tapping to shop, dine, and travel.”
Users who have availed of the GCash Card will also have access to GInsure, where they can get free insurance of up to Php20,000 coverage for unauthorized transactions for the first 30 days after activation. This also includes the Php185 price for card replacement in the event of accidental loss or damage to the card, as well as the shipping fee of up to Php225.
To order, users can open their GCash app, go to ”View all”, and find the “Manage” section. Click on “Cards” and tap “Order a GCash Card”. To know more, visit GCash at https://www.gcash.com.
Globe CEO Ernest Cu: Philippines a ‘great alternative’ for SEA hyperscalers
The Philippines has the potential to be the next key data center hub in Southeast Asia, said Ernest Cu, Globe Group President and CEO, as he cited the company’s venture into the data business with the intent to own the space in the next few years.
In an interview with Bloomberg Singapore, Cu noted that the country is strategically positioned to capitalize on the shifting dynamics in the region. With Hong Kong's geopolitical situation and Singapore's capacity limitations, the Philippines is increasingly seen as an attractive location for hyperscalers.
"Location-wise, we are in the middle of Southeast Asia, not far from most capitals in the ASEAN. With the added connectivity, with the added data center capacity, we believe that the Philippines will become a great alternative now for the many hyperscalers that have to serve the region," said Cu.
In catering to these hyperscalers, Globe has already taken proactive steps through ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (Philippines), a joint venture between Globe, Ayala Corporation, and Singapore-based ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC).
"We started off by looking for a very capable partner in STT GDC. They share our vision and optimism about the market, and so we're building our data centers that will be located throughout the Philippines. The largest of these centers will be in Fairview, Quezon City, and is expected to be online in the first quarter of 2025,” he shared.
Cu said construction of the Fairview site is progressing as planned. With a capacity of 124MW, it is touted to be the largest, most interconnected, sustainable, and carrier-neutral data center campus in the country upon completion.
Earlier, STT GDC Philippines also revealed aggressive expansion plans across its three existing data centers located in Makati, Cavite, and Quezon City. With a combined capacity expansion of 5.2MW set for the third quarter of this year, the company is poised to surpass the capacity of most single data centers locally.
To support hyperscalers, Globe is also building two more landing stations on the eastern and western coasts of the Philippines which can accommodate submarine cables that are coming into the country. These submarine cables provide various means of connectivity such as voice, data, and Internet.
“We've got a tremendous number of people, population-wise, that live in these regions, and we have to be served by the hyperscalers. The adoption of cloud is also growing in the region. So we think that there's going to be a huge demand for data centers,” Cu added.
As the digital landscape of the Philippines continues to evolve, Globe is committed to being a pivotal part of this transformation, ensuring that the nation is well-equipped to handle the digital future.

Globe boosts collaboration with LGUs, police in areas with high incidence of cable theft
To protect customers and ensure undisrupted internet connectivity, Globe has boosted its collaboration with local government units and law enforcement authorities in areas with the highest incidence of cable theft.
This is in line with efforts to continue to clamp down on such crime, which have already led to a significant decline in cases, from 1,876 recorded from January to May 2022 to 746 cases in the same period this year– a 60% drop, per Globe data.
Globe has been working closely with local authorities in these areas of concern, with the following cases logged according to Globe data: Cebu City, with 498 cases; Quezon City, with 171 cases (Project 8 with 103, Novaliches with 68); Manila, which recorded 161 incidents; Mandaue City, Cebu, with 118; Valenzuela City, with 73; Malabon, with 67; Pasig City, with 64; and Liloan and Consolacion, Cebu, each with 62 cases.
“Cable theft is a criminal act punishable by law. We work together with authorities and communities to combat this illegal activity to ensure undisrupted service. With consistently available connectivity, we will be able to support our customers in education, work and livelihood, and provide critical communication services in case of disasters and other emergencies,” said Raymond Policarpio, Vice President of Globe At Home Broadband Business.
“As part of its proactive approach to addressing cable theft, Globe continuously collaborates with our partner local government units and local law enforcement agencies so that together, we can bring a holistic solution to this problem. We look forward to stronger cooperation with our partners to bring cable theft numbers further down,” said Patrick Gloria, Vice President for External Affairs.
Other than cable theft, Globe also continues to log other incidents of stolen assets in various facilities. In the first half of the year, Globe recorded 1,545 incidents, including the theft of batteries, fuel and other electronics and facility hardware. Due to these incidents, Globe recorded 207 outages as of May 2023 in 124 sites.
Globe has been intensifying its campaign against cable theft through its Bantay Kable Program, together with the PNP and LGUs, over the past several years.
In August 2022, Globe joined an industry-wide initiative dubbed “Oplan Kontra Putol” to inform the public about illegal cable cutting together with other cable and telecom providers in the country. The group calls upon law enforcement agencies to implement Republic Act No. 10515, also known as the Cable Theft Act, which has criminalized intentional cable cutting.
To further discourage unscrupulous persons from targeting copper wires, the company has been replacing copper wires with Fiber which ensures access to fast and reliable internet. Unlike copper, fiber optic cables have no resale value and are not accepted in junk shops.
The public may report cable theft incidents to the Globe Security Hotline: 0917 6888545 (nationwide), 0906 3244626 (Visayas) and 09177915794 (Mindanao), and the PNP hotline 911, which is accessible through both landline and mobile.

Aside from expanding its touchpoints, GCash is also making it rewarding for users to go cashless in Singapore. When they use GCash to pay in 7-Eleven, iJooz, and hawkers like Lau Pa Sat they can get PHP 85 off from their purchase. Likewise, users can enjoy up to PHP400 off at ComfortDelGro taxi rides and their shopping at The Shilla Duty-Free stores.

Enabling youth digital citizenship: Globe and Palo Alto Networks donate cyber safety
(L-R) William Ignacio, Globe's Head of Program Delivery and Strategy, Dr. Henry Leen Magahis, OIC and Principal of Enzo Zobel Foundation-Senior High School, Oscar Visaya, Country General Manager for Palo Alto Networks Philippines)
Leading digital solutions platform Globe and global cybersecurity leader Palo Alto Networks recently handed over 1,000 Cyberlite Activity Workbooks to the E. Zobel Foundation (EZF) under the telco’s Digital Thumbprint Program (DTP), which aims to increase students’ knowledge of digital citizenship and security. In partnership with Cyberlite Books, the cyber safety workbooks will be distributed to elementary and high school students under EZF’s network of public schools in Calatagan, Batangas.
Globe's Head of Information Security Program Delivery and Strategy William Ignacio represented the company during the formal turnover at the Enrique Zobel Technological (EnzoTech) Center, where he was joined by Oscar Visaya, Palo Alto Networks’ Country Manager for the Philippines, Violeta Mira, Public Schools District Supervisor for the Division of Calatagan, and Dr. Henry Magahis, Officer-in-Charge and Principal of EZF-Senior High School.
Students remain heavily reliant on online platforms and social media for academic requirements despite schools returning to a face-to-face setup for a year post-pandemic. However, these digital tools pose potential threats to children’s online safety as they are unlikely to recognize threats like compromised links, phishing, and malware, per the Asian Foundation's 2022 study.
The youth also struggle to judge shareable online information, putting them at risk amid persistent phishing attacks on social media, as reported in Palo Alto Networks’ Unit 42 Network Threat Trends Research Report.
The donation embodies Globe, Palo Alto Networks, and the E. Zobel Foundation's partnership. It symbolizes a concerted effort to lay down a path for the youth to traverse the digital landscape with confidence, knowledge, and responsibility in alignment with the common vision and values of the three partners.
“Our partnership with Palo Alto Networks has been part of our long-standing commitment to our customers to ensure their online safety, especially through our channels. This latest collaboration with E. Zobel Foundation strengthens our collaborative efforts in fostering a secure digital environment for Filipino students, teachers, and parents. We're investing in technology and instilling a sense of responsibility within our youth,” Ignacio said.
Palo Alto Networks shares Globe’s sentiment on cyber safety. As Visaya said: “We are thrilled to align ourselves with Globe and the E. Zobel Foundation in this critical endeavor. Our mission has always been to protect our digital way of life, and these cyber safety booklets will be a stepping stone in achieving that goal. It embodies our values of disruption, execution, collaboration, integrity, and inclusion.”
Palo Alto Networks is a globally recognized partner of Globe’s Information Security and Data Privacy (ISDP) team, and together they help ensure the safety of Globe's millions of customers.
Meanwhile, the E. Zobel Foundation, established in 1990, was founded by the late Don Enrique Zobel, who believed that “through education, there is hope for a better life.”
“Education is our strongest weapon against the challenges of the digital world. We deeply appreciate the contributions of Globe and Palo Alto Networks. These cybersafety booklets will serve as an important guide for our students to help them become more responsible and empowered digital citizens,” Magahis said.
Since 2016, Globe has been educating the younger generation on digital citizenship and responsible use of technology through DTP and was eventually integrated by the Department of Education (DepEd) into the K-12 curriculum to bolster its existing modules around digital literacy.
Globe also launched the #MakeITSafePH campaign in 2017 to further promote and raise awareness on responsible and mindful online behavior among the public. In 2022, they launched a new platform makeitsafe.ph for parents and students to equip themselves against cyberbullying better.

Mynt to acquire ECPay to serve MSMEs better, boost bills payment business
MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Mynt, the holding company of the Philippines’ number one finance super app, GCash, has entered into an agreement with Globe Telecom Inc. and Payment One, Inc. to acquire a 100% stake in Electronic Commerce Payments, Inc. (ECPay), for PHP3.0 billion.
(L-R) Jasmin Montelibano, President and CEO of ECPay, Martha Sazon, President and CEO of Mynt, Issa Cebreira, Chief Commercial Officer of Globe Group, and Jude Aguilar, President, Payment One, Inc.)
Mynt believes its acquisition of ECPay will strengthen its position as a partner for growth of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME). This also allows Mynt to create a more comprehensive suite of solutions that can help drive financial progress for MSMEs.
“Mynt, through its fintech subsidiaries, has already built the largest digital ecosystem for our users which extends all the way to the grassroots level. ECPay is a big boost to our financial inclusion journey as we find synergies with their 570 Biller and Portfolio partners, 490,000+ over-the-counter channels and 3000+ digital touchpoint channels,” said Mynt President and CEO Martha Sazon.
To date, GCash’s merchant and social seller base is around 6 million. Cash-in and cash-out outlets are at 732,000, and small-scale community outlets are at 935,000.
Incorporated in 2001, ECPay is a leading electronic payment service provider in the Philippines. It was acquired by Globe in 2019 to enhance its distribution network. ECPay enables merchant partners to process bills payments, electronic prepaid mobile phone top-ups, electronic pins, e-wallet & cash card reloading, airline ticket payments, online shopping payments, and credit card payments in their various over-the-counter and digital partners.
Upon closing of the transaction, Mynt will drive synergy by combining the best practices and capabilities of both GCash and ECPay. ECPay will, in turn, benefit from GCash’s rich experience and extensive network, enabling it to extend its market reach and explore new growth avenues.
The transaction, subject to regulatory approvals, is expected to close in the first quarter of 2024.
Globe fetes Alex Eala for historic double bronze win in Asian Games
Globe congratulates its ambassador, tennis sensation Alex Eala, for making history for the flag anew after winning two bronze medals in the Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, the country’s first podium finish in tennis in the regional tilt in 16 years.
Eala scored a double bronze win in her Asiad debut ending the country’s nearly two-decade tennis medal drought in women's singles. She then clinched another bronze with Francis Casey Alcantara in the mixed doubles event.
Eala’s wins mark the first time the Philippines won two medals in tennis in the Asian Games since 2006, when Filipino American Cecil Mamiit won two medals in the men's singles and doubles.
“We are overwhelmed with pride over another historic feat that our ambassador, Alex Eala, has accomplished for the flag. She is the epitome of what hard work, grace and determination can achieve. At such a young age, she has rewritten the country’s sports history as she continues to achieve personal milestones,” said Ernest Cu, Globe Group President and CEO.
A Globe ambassador since age 8, Eala has landed historic wins for the Philippines. She clinched the 2022 grand slam singles championship at the US Open Juniors, and has so far won four pro titles in the International Tennis Federation (ITF), the 2021 French Open Girls' Doubles tournament, and the Australian Open Girls’ Doubles in 2020.
Apart from these, Eala won three bronze medals in the singles, women’s team play and doubles events in her Southeast Asian Games debut last year.
GCash supports COMELEC’s Kontra-Bigay campaign
GCash expressed its full support for the Commission on Elections’ (COMELEC) Resolution No. 10946, also known as "Kontra-Bigay", ahead of the upcoming Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections.
Officials from the fintech company attended the campaign’s launch at the Palacio del Gobernador in Intramuros, Manila, earlier in September. The launch was also attended by distinguished representatives from lead agencies such as the Department of Justice (DOJ), Philippine National Police (PNP), Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), Integrated Bar of the Philippines (IBP), Office of the Solicitor General (OSG), Public Attorney's Office (PAO), Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), Department of Education (DepEd), as well as prominent election-focused NGOs like National Citizens' Movement for Free Elections (NAMFREL), Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting (PPCRV), and Legal Network For Truthful Elections (LENTE).
COMELEC Resolution No. 10946 aims to combat online vote buying and selling by establishing a Kontra-Bigay Committee and expanding the existing vote-buying regulations under the Omnibus Election Code and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as well as the other rules and regulations issued by COMELEC.
One of the most significant highlights of the newly passed resolution is its recognition of online banking transactions and the use of e-wallets as potential channels for vote buying under Section 30. During the launch, COMELEC emphasized its authority to scrutinize the financial details of account holders suspected of involvement in such illicit activities.
“GCash reiterates its unwavering commitment to cooperate fully with the COMELEC in the fight against online vote buying. The company recognizes the critical role fintech companies play in safeguarding the integrity of elections by preventing the misuse of digital financial tools for unlawful purposes,” said Martha Sazon, president and chief executive officer of GCash.
GCash believes that fostering transparency, accountability, and trust in financial transactions is paramount to ensuring fair, honest, and inclusive elections that reflect the people's will.
"We remain committed to upholding the highest standards of transparency and security in financial transactions and will actively support the COMELEC in their efforts to maintain a level playing field for all candidates and voters,” added Sazon.
As the country’s no. 1 finance super app, GCash embraces its responsibility in ensuring that not only finance but also democracy, is for all.
A purpose-driven celebration: Globe's G Day activities highlight Hapag Movement
Globe is setting a new standard in championing a socially-conscious celebration of G Day month as it integrates the Hapag Movement in on-ground events, encouraging its customers to support the cause against hunger.
The Hapag Movement is a Globe-led initiative against involuntary hunger that leverages technology and partnerships to support 100,000 vulnerable Filipino families through supplemental feeding and livelihood training, with the help of mobilization partners Ayala Foundation, Inc., Caritas Philippines, Scholars of Sustenance Philippines, Tzu Chi Foundation, and World Vision.
"By embedding the Hapag Movement's mission into our activities, we aim to spotlight the pressing challenges of food insecurity and unemployment, rallying collective action among Filipinos. It's essential for us to use our platform not just to connect people but to also bridge societal gaps, ensuring that as we celebrate, we also elevate the lives of those in need,” said Yoly Crisanto, Chief Sustainability and Corporate Communications Officer at the Globe Group.
Globe Rewards redemption activities highlighted the Hapag Movement at G Music Fest, an all-OPM concert and art festival held on September 16 at Circuit Makati, which drew an attendance of around 12,000.
Contributions to the Hapag Movement were made through the following activities at the music festival:
● Get your own Gudi Drip Keychain - PHP10
● Drip Slash Activity - PHP30
● Entry at the G Music Fest BallPit - PHP1
● Sketch to Life Activity - PHP5
● Live Mural -PHP1
Additionally, all proceeds from the 1 Rewards Point Flash Sale on Food and Beverages were directed to the Hapag Movement.
On September 17, the G Creator Con, an event that championed Filipino creativity, also allowed attendees to support the Hapag Movement using their Rewards points.
The G Creator Studio introduced a "Donate to Reserve" initiative where PHP5 went directly to the program. Other activities such as the Wisdom of Da Vinci immersive exhibit, the GCreator Con Exhibit, Drip Splash, and Gudi Drip (Platinum) each contributed PHP5 to the cause per attendee. Onsite musicians also pledged to match the total earnings of all performers, further amplifying their impact. The event also showcased KUMU-Hapag music content creators as part of the performer's roster.
Meanwhile, G Battle Zone, which started on September 23 and will continue until October 1 at SMX Pasay, also carries Globe's signature commitment. Activities such as the RevMajor 2023 Raffle will allow participants to donate 1 Rewards Point for 1 entry while an on-ground match will see the winner playing for charity, with P50,000 being donated to the Hapag Movement.
Materials related to the Hapag Movement were also prominently displayed at the G Music Fest and G Creator Con, and the initiative will continue to be consistently highlighted in on-ground announcements and spiels at the G Battle Zone.

SEC and GCash sign agreement to combat scams and fraud
The Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Philippines’ leading finance super app GCash have signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) to join forces in going after perpetrators involved in online fraud, e-scams, and other cybercrimes.
Under the agreement, GCash will assist and cooperate with the SEC in investigating financial fraud crimes by providing relevant information and data in accordance with prevailing laws, rules, and regulations.
As more and more Filipinos embrace the digital space for their daily transactions and investments, the country has witnessed a concerning rise in online scams, investment fraud, and various cybercrimes in recent years. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Enforcement and Investor Protection Department (EIPD) noted that victims of these cybercrimes typically use online money transfer services, such as e-wallets, for their transactions.
“As the country’s investor champion, we must think of ways for fintech companies like GCash to thrive. Financial services offered by GCash will further the cause for financial inclusion and bring the capital market to more Filipinos. The MOA entered into today allows efficient cooperation between EIPD and GCash. Through this MOA, the EIPD can request vital information from GCash to build better cases in its fight against fraud,” SEC chairperson and CEO Emilio Benito Aquino said.
The agreement further solidifies GCash's commitment to secure its customers’ funds and data.
“By continuously working with the government in combating scams, fraud, and other cybercrimes, we want our users to have peace of mind and confidence to transact in the digital space. After all, at GCash, the security of our users is our utmost priority. Together with the SEC, we will continue to improve and innovate in order to protect our customers against cyber threats and other types of scams,” G-Xchange Inc. chief executive officer Ren-Ren Reyes said.
As the e-wallet with the largest user base in the country, GCash is serious in upholding its trust and security mandate by building close coordination and partnerships with law enforcement authorities, namely the Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG), and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). GCash has also been leveraging the latest innovation in trust technology to build the safest digital ecosystem for its users while doubling down on empowering customers to protect their accounts through education.

Globe Group's sustainability efforts recognized in four categories at the Sustainable Company Awards 2023
Globe Awards At a Glance:
● Energy Efficiency Initiative of the Year in APAC
● Net Zero Progression of the Year in APAC
● Sustainability Reporting of the Year in APAC
● Large Enterprise of the Year in APAC
In a remarkable display of commitment towards sustainability, the Globe Group has earned recognition in four categories at the Environmental Finance Sustainable Company Awards 2023, underscoring the company's unwavering dedication to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles and its leadership role in driving sustainable business practices.
Environmental-Finance.com is a UK-based online news and analysis service established in 1999 to report on sustainable investment, green finance and the people and companies active in environmental markets.
Globe was recognized in four categories it entered, with recognitions earned from its efforts on climate action, sustainability reporting, and digitalization.
Energy Efficiency Initiative of the Year (APAC)
Globe’s efforts to green its network, aligned with its ISO 50001-certified energy management system, contributed to increased network efficiency and cost savings from reduced energy consumption. This includes the shifting of more sites to renewable energy, integrating green network solutions in its operations, and the adoption of energy-efficient technologies that has allowed the company to maximize operational network capabilities.
Net Zero Progression of the Year (APAC)
Globe's commitment to building a sustainable future was further recognized with the Net Zero Progression of the Year award.
In 2021 Globe committed to set science-based targets through the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) and submitted in June 2023 its science-based targets for evaluation and validation. It has maintained a CDP 'B' Rating since 2021 and is also committed to supporting the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), underscoring its dedication to address climate-related risks. This honor highlights the company’s alignment with the global Race to Zero campaign, and its persistence in reducing its GHG emissions within its value chain.
Sustainability Reporting of the Year (APAC)
The third recognition, Sustainability Reporting of the Year, celebrates Globe's long-standing commitment to transparency and accountability. The company began its sustainability reporting journey as early as 2008, a decade ahead of the implementation of Philippine Sustainability Reporting regulations which required this of publicly-listed companies in the country.
Globe adopted the Integrated Reporting framework in 2018 to depict how the company creates value using its resources. For its 2022 Integrated Report entitled “Empowering Customers with Everyday Digital Solutions,” Globe showcased the adoption of the GSMA ESG Metrics for Mobile, making it the first telco in the Philippines to pilot the metrics.
The company was also recently given an 'AA' Rating by the MSCI, the highest in the Philippines by far, and has maintained its membership in the FTSE4Good Index for eight consecutive years. Globe's recognition by The Financial Times as one of the Climate Leaders in Asia Pacific for two consecutive years and its accolade as the Most Sustainably-Driven Network by Standard Insights further attest to its leadership in sustainability.
Large Enterprise of the Year (APAC): Transitioning from telco to techco
Globe was also recognized as the Large Enterprise of the Year for APAC in this year’s awards for its successful transformation into a digital solutions group.
"These recognitions are proof of Globe's purposeful approach to sustainability. We are committed to driving positive change and we will continue to pave the way for a sustainable future for our stakeholders and the planet,” said Yoly Crisanto, Chief Sustainability and Corporate Communications Officer of the Globe Group.
The Environmental Finance Sustainable Company Awards is renowned for spotlighting companies that pioneer change in their approach to sustainability. It employs a rigorous judging process involving over 40 industry experts and the Environmental Finance editorial team.
Through its strategies, Globe practices sustainability with intention and purpose, setting a benchmark for others to follow.
