New BPO Firms at Araneta Center Cyber Park
Another topnotch Business Process Outsourcing firm — Agentworks Contact Solutions of SM Eventures – has signed up up to be part of the Cyber Park.
Agentworks is constructing a 120-seater office to give jobs to around 700 BPO professionals. Their site at the Araneta Center is to be their sixth, with other offices located in Ortigas, Tomas Morato, Commonwealth, Makati, and SM Manila. Agentworks specializes in outbound services to sectors such as finance, energy, and education.
Recruitment for the Agentworks site at the Cyber Park has begun this month, while operations will be launched by December.
Araneta Center is fasttracking its redevelopment projects to offer more office spaces as a way to keep up with the growth of the Business Processing Outsourcing (BPO) and Information Technology industries in the country today. It is currently the home of two other BPO facilities namely Accenture, a major player in the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry with over 100,000 employees worldwide, with its offices at the Gateway Tower.
Araneta Center Cyber Park also recently welcomed its first tenant in the complex, APAC Customer Services Inc., who have started part of their operations last March.
Advanced Contact Solutions, the first and only listed call center in the Philippine Stock Exchange, has also opened its sixth call center facility at the Old Rustans Superstore Building. Eventually the whole block will give way to the rise of the Araneta Center Cyber Park, composed of 46-storey buildings of office space.
With its growing number of BPO and IT office spaces in its vibrant vicinity, Araneta Center is set to become a self-contained business community that intersperses shopping, dining and entertainment venues with the hustle and bustle of corporate life. With its accessibility and proximity to main thoroughfares and trade areas, the Araneta Center is poised to be at the forefront of preferred technology hotspots in the country today.
