10 Years After Introducing Data, Globe Embarks on Ambitious Network Upgrade Anew
Globe announces its largest network upgrade to date, 10 years after it introduced data with its nationwide network transformation program. The network upgrades come at the heels of the government asking telcos to improve internet services especially at these times when connectivity is a critical need.
"Globe is in a much better position now to fulfill the demands of its customers. In doing network upgrades at this time, we will be able to provide our customers with much-improved network performance and quality of service. We look towards the future when the country is fueled by a strong digital economy that is enabled by resilient and reliable connectivity."
