A 10-story building with state-of-the-art facilities is rising in an information technology park in Tupi, South Cotabato, which is being promoted as a competitive hub not just in South Cotabato but in the entire Mindanao for tech companies, business process outsourcing, and startups. South Cotabato Gov. Reynaldo Tamayo Jr. unveiled the Tupi IT Park, describing it as “the gateway to inclusive growth and innovation in South Cotabato and the rest of Mindanao.” The park, located in a five-hectare property, was designated as a special economic zone for information technology through Proclamation 530 issued in May last year. The creation of the Tupi IT Park was recommended by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority, and it is expected to start commercial operations next year, with a total floor area of 50,420 square meters, featuring flexible office space, high-speed internet, and modern workspaces that foster collaboration and innovation. The project is expected to open doors to more jobs, investments, and opportunities for the people of South Cotabato and Mindanao.
