Metro Manila (CNN Philippines) — Globe’s 917 G Day, its annual program for its most loyal customers, is all set to delight customers with exciting and life-enabling offers, showcasing its pivot from a telco to a full-fledged tech company, or “techco.”

“The shift from telco to techco is something a lot of our consumers will really be happy about. From our core telco business, Globe has expanded its portfolio through ventures in financial technology, healthcare, edu-tech, clima-tech, entertainment, ad-tech, e-commerce, manpower, among others. And with this year’s G Day, we want them to feel this shift. We want them to know that Globe brings them closer to their dreams through more than just connectivity but our suite of life-enabling digital solutions,” said Globe Rewards Head Jerome Patalud.

From telco to techco

As Globe goes through this journey, the company is introducing other innovations to better the lives of its customers. One of them is KonsultaMD, touted to be the country’s next tech unicorn, which aims to serve Filipinos through accessible health and wellness services. Globe affiliate GCash, currently the country’s No. 1 Finance App, helps Filipinos make easier financial transactions, save, and even invest their earnings.

“I think a lot of us, even you and I, we all use GCash nowadays,” said Patalud on CNN Philippines’ New Day. “GCash has been very pivotal in the lives of our everyday Filipinos, where they use it when it comes to daily essentials, everyday wants, everyday needs, even shopping online and offline as well.”
