MANILA (Bloomberg): Globe Telecom Inc. expects its biggest data center to be operational in two years as the company capitalises on growing demand and customers wanting to hedge geopolitical risks, President and Chief Executive Officer Ernest Cu said.

"We’re now in the throes of building a 124-megawatt facility with ST Telemedia here in the Philippines, and hopefully we’ll have it online early 2025,” Cu said in an interview on Monday with Bloomberg Television’s David Ingles, Yvonne Man and Rishaad Salamat.
