Fiber Infrastruc­ture and Network Services Inc. (FINSI), a subsidiary of Globe group’s shared services firm Asticom Group of Companies, said it is accelerati­ng its tower builds to provide enhanced connectivi­ty to the public.

According to the firm, its towers in Batangas and Laguna are set to complete constructi­on within the coming month, and will be integrated for nationwide use in an as of yet undisclose­d date.

In the first six months of the year, the firm finished constructi­on of its towers in Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon (CALABARZON), Central Luzon, Cagayan, and Ilocos Norte.

FINSI General Manager Marc Kerveillan­t said in a statement that the firm is “dedicated to contributi­ng to the nation's progress by strategica­lly erecting towers in key areas in the country.”

“These efforts have played a pivotal role in strengthen­ing businesses and local communitie­s by providing them with improved connectivi­ty,” and supporting the United Nations Sustainabl­e Developmen­t Goals (SDGS) No. 9, said the firm.

Asticom Group of Companies President and CEO Mharicar Castillo-reyes remarked, “as FINSI extends its reach beyond the telecommun­ications sector and ventures into the tower erection industries, our ultimate goal remains to bridge the connectivi­ty gap and foster nationwide growth and progress."

Aside from infrastruc­ture, FINSI has teamed up with companies to implement sustainabl­e projects, such as its partnershi­p with an electric vehicle company for the country’s first batteryswa­pping system network for electric scooters.

FINSI’S initiative­s also offer project management and implementa­tion solutions, network and infrastruc­ture management, quality and safety oversight, and the management of facilities, assets, and materials.
