Megaworld Corporation, the property arm of Alliance Global Group, Inc., stands tall as the Philippines’ biggest office landlord and developer. Recognized for the second time as having the Best Operational Office Portfolio at the recent PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards 2024, Megaworld’s unmatched roster of office developments spread across various strategic locations in the country, reinforcing its role as a cornerstone of the nation’s economic growth and urban transformation.
In the ever-evolving real estate landscape, Megaworld’s office spaces are not merely towering world-class structures; they are hubs of innovation, productivity and growth—solidifying the company’s role in driving the Philippines’ status as a global business destination.
A Leader in Office Space Development
With over 1.5 million square meters of office space spanning more than 80 towers, Megaworld dominates the office real estate sector in the Philippines. The company is on track to expand its office space portfolio to two million square meters by 2030, reinforcing its leadership and long-term commitment to driving the growth of one of the world’s fastest growing economies.
Megaworld’s office developments are home to over 200 multinational corporations, including global leaders like Google, JPMorgan Chase, IBM, Wells Fargo, Samsung and Bayer. These spaces have also attracted some of the largest names in the business process outsourcing (BPO) and IT industries, such as Accenture, Thomson Reuters, FactSet, Carelon, Cognizant, iQor, Telus and WNS. The company’s reputation for delivering world-class office environment, including over 30 office buildings with LEED certifications, has made it the preferred partner for global companies.
Pioneering the BPO Industry with Eastwood City
Megaworld’s journey as the leader in office development began with Eastwood City, the country’s first cyberpark in Quezon City. As the cradle of the Philippines’ booming BPO industry, Eastwood City has grown to house over 80 IT and BPO firms, including global giants such as IBM and Accenture. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Eastwood City remains a premier business hub, fostering innovation and excellence that have driven the nation’s economic progress.
Following the success of Eastwood City, Megaworld replicated its winning formula in other key developments such as McKinley Hill, McKinley West and Uptown Bonifacio in Taguig City. These townships now accommodate nearly 100,000 BPO workers and host major corporations, including Wells Fargo, Bayer, Samsung, FactSet and Thomson Reuters, among others. Notably, the Uptown Bonifacio township is home to bespoke office towers built for JPMorgan Chase, a testament to Megaworld’s capability to deliver tailored solutions for global enterprises.
Driving Development and Economic Growth Beyond Manila
Beyond Metro Manila, Megaworld has been instrumental in supporting the Philippine government’s efforts to decentralize economic activity. By establishing office hubs in key growth areas in the provinces, the company has brought employment opportunities closer to where Filipinos live. Iloilo Business Park in Western Visayas, for instance, dominates the IT-BPO market in Iloilo City, employing 20,000 workers and attracting first-time locators such as Carelon and WNS.
In Cebu, The Mactan Newtown stands as a thriving business hub, featuring eight office towers that house industry leaders such as Manulife and Concentrix, significantly boosting the province’s economy. In Bacolod City, Megaworld has raised the bar with the launch of its first and most advanced office tower in the city, solidifying its presence in Western Visayas. Over in Mindanao, the Davao Park District continues to support regional growth with a 14-story office tower catering to Manila-based companies expanding into Davao City, the region’s economic epicenter.
The company is also expanding its footprint in Luzon, with new office towers already in the pipeline and rising soon in Capital Town in San Fernando City in Pampanga province and Maple Grove in General Trias City in Cavite province.
Setting the Standard for Sustainability in the Philippine Office Industry
As the leading office developer, Megaworld is also at the forefront of sustainability. The company’s 32 LEED-certified and registered office buildings incorporate cutting-edge green design and construction practices. Landmark projects include the award-winning Worldwide Plaza in Uptown Bonifacio, LEED Gold-certified One Paseo in ArcoVia City and the International Finance Center, recognized as the “Best Green Office Development” at the 2024 Philippines Property Awards.
A Vision of Growth and Empowerment
Megaworld’s unwavering commitment to innovation, regional development, and environmental stewardship cements its role as a transformative force in the Philippines. By creating world-class office spaces, driving decentralization and championing sustainability, Megaworld is not just building structures—it is shaping the future of work and empowering the Filipino workforce.
As the country’s biggest office landlord and developer, Megaworld remains a vital partner for global corporations and a key player in the nation’s journey toward economic growth and global competitiveness.
