UnionDigital Bank opens its future headquarters

LAST Sept. 9, 2022, UnionDigital Bank formally inaugurated its future headquarters in the UnionBank Innovation Campus in San Pedro, Laguna with President Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos Jr., in attendance.

In addition to serving as the future main office of UnionDigital Bank, the Innovation Campus will also house various centers of innovation, including UnionBank institutes on Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, and the Asian Institute of Digital Transformation (AIDT).

The campus was inaugurated during the country’s first Innovation Festival, a three-day event that showcased UnionBank’s and UnionDigital Bank’s partners in financial technology innovation, offering a behind-the-scenes look at some of the bank’s exciting new developments in the space.

“We cannot allow the Philippines to get left behind,” said President Marcos in his speech at the event. “We would be neglectful of our duties if we do not recognize the trend that is happening around the world. And not only adjust to it, but position ourselves to take full advantage of it.”

“UnionDigital Bank prides itself on being tech-forward. The opening of our future headquarters in the Innovation UnionDigital Bank HQ in UB Innovation Campus Campus further propels our advocacy in achieving a fully Tech’d Up Philippines,” said Arvie de Vera, co-founder and CEO of UnionDigital Bank.

To further illustrate UnionDigital Bank’s vision of a Tech’d Up Philippines, the digital bank showcased its partners who will help fuel this future: Nexplay, Yield Guild Games (YGG), Euronet, Visa and PeraHub.

It also introduced an exciting metaverse project called New Manila 2050, which seeks to create a vibrant Web3 community for Filipinos to safely discover, learn, and collaborate in the space.

The UnionDigital Bank app is now live for a limited set of customers. For now, the app is currently available by invitation only.

Future updates on the launch will be available through the digital bank’s social media channels on LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook.
