GLOBE GROUP UNVEILS PURPOSE-LED TRANSFORMATION IN UN'S VISION 2045 DOCUMENTARY SERIES




KUALA LUMPUR, June 6 (Bernama) -- The Globe Group is participating in the UN’s Vision 2045, a campaign that features documentary films about how businesses worldwide are taking collective action for a better global future, reflecting its long-standing commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In its documentary, the Globe Group’s senior leaders talk about the company’s purpose-led transformation – innovating with compassion, care and kindness to deliver life-enabling services to Filipinos.

Globe Group President and Chief Executive Officer Ernest Cu looked back at how Globe transformed from telco to techco, turning the business around from a far-second player when he came in 2008 to an industry-leader and gamechanger. Behind this success is Globe’s mission to serve.

“We came into the pandemic as a company and came out as a group of companies. We are now shifting to become a digital solutions platform and have seen incredible success in bringing pioneering tech-enabled services that address Filipinos’ needs.

“Our goal is to continuously grow and fortify the Globe Group by providing more products and services that can address the daily struggles of Filipinos through digital solutions,” said Cu in a statement.

Globe’s transformation was further accelerated by the pandemic, when many day-to-day transactions and activities swiftly shifted to online platforms. In the midst of the crisis, Globe’s platforms shone through as life savers.

As it continues to grow, the company is on the constant lookout for startups worldwide with an aligned vision for the future and a mission to make positive change.

Through its venture capital firm Kickstart Ventures, Globe has been supporting companies that tackle some of the world’s biggest problems, from food security to pollution, among others.

The bedrock of Globe’s expansion and transformation is its core telco business, where it continues to operate sustainably.

It was the first publicly-listed Philippine-based company to commit to setting science-based targets and was recently recognised by Standard Insights as the Most Sustainability-Driven Network Operator in the Philippines.
