MANILA, Philippines - Despite being a relative newcomer, Megaworld-run McKinley Hill Cyberpark in Fort Bonifacio is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with among IT parks.
Barely a year into its operations as an IT park accredited by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (Peza), McKinley Hill Cyberpark now counts more than 8,000 employees across its 29 corporate locators. Nineteen of these companies are fast-growing business process outsourcing (BPO) firms.
Among the leading companies that have located within McKinley Hill Cyberpark are Accenture, Thomson Reuters, 3M and Colgate-Palmolive.
These companies now occupy McKinley Hill’s prestigious office towers: One, Two and Three World Square and the new Commerce & Industry Plaza. Four more office towers are on track for completion within the year, bringing McKinley Hill Cyberpark’s office inventory to more than 180,000 square meters of prime office space.
Concept + location
“The initial figures, which we have generated by polling our locators for their employment figures, prove just how successful McKinley Hill Cyberpark is. This is proof of its great location and great concept as a vital jobs generator,” Megaworld FVP for Business Development Jericho Go shared.
“More than that, McKinley Hill Cyberpark is proud to do its share in helping the national economy earn dollar-denominated exports and provide work benefits for employees and their families through our corporate locators,” Go added.
Last year, counting only about three months of operations, McKinley Hill Cyberpark posted $10.7 million in service exports, according to Peza. With the huge growth in the numbers of company locators and employees, Megaworld is expecting the full-year 2009 export figures for McKinley Hill Cyberpark to grow exponentially as a result.
Live-work-play-learn concept
McKinley Hill Cyberpark has been steadily attracting locators and foreign companies that are looking to set up shop in the Philippines. Its 15-storey Commerce & Industry Plaza features a unique open-plan office layout that is ideal for multiple modular workspaces often seen in BPO firms. The uninterrupted space concept also gives flexibility to startup companies that are eyeing future expansion. The layout also allows companies to save on energy and costs for lighting fixtures.
Located in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City, McKinley Hill Cyberpark lies between two major business districts: Makati and Ortigas. This puts locators minutes away from both finance centers.
