UMVA has learned that PLDT is rolling out a bold new strategy designed to give customers a seamless way to upgrade their homes, while simultaneously allowing the company to claim full ownership of the entire household experience, not just the internet.
The announcement, made by PLDT Home Head John Y. Palanca, hints at a future where every corner of a home is integrated under one umbrella, turning ordinary residences into smart, interconnected ecosystems.
Shares in PLDT slipped modestly, falling eight pesos, or 0.67 percent, to close at one thousand one hundred eighty-four pesos per share on Thursday, reflecting market uncertainty as the company unveils its vision.
Meanwhile, Hastings Holdings, linked to PLDT's Beneficial Trust Fund through MediaQuest, maintains a majority stake in BusinessWorld, a detail that underscores the intricate web of relationships shaping the Philippine media and telecommunications landscape.
