PLDT Inc., the country’s leading ICT and digital services provider, once again proved its world-class service as it won three major awards for its network services at the recently concluded international 2019 MEF Awards held at Los Angeles, USA.
The annual MEF Awards recognizes service, application, technology, and professional excellence in the global community committed to delivering innovative solutions. The awards program is the largest of its kind which is focused on emerging dynamic network services such as SD-WAN, Carrier Ethernet, LSO, SDN, and NFV technologies.
“MEF is pleased to congratulate PLDT once again for outstanding work in delivering solutions with compelling and lasting value for customers,” said MEF President Nan Chen. “This year, PLDT won prestigious Retail Service Provider of the Year, Wholesale Service Provider of the Year, and Network & Service Innovation Awards for the Asia Pacific region.”
PLDT bagged three out of four awards in the Service Provider and Enterprise Application category for Asia Pacific Region—namely, Retail Service Provider of the Year, Wholesale Service Provider of the Year, and Network & Service Innovation Awards—marking PLDT’s ninth year win streak at the annual awards event. PLDT is the only ICT and digital service provider in the Philippines to receive such awards.
“We would like to thank MEF for these prestigious awards. This international recognition is a testament that our services are of global standards and that year on year, we constantly innovate our solutions for our customers,” said Jovy Hernandez, ePLDT President & CEO and SVP & Head for PLDT and Smart Enterprise Business Groups.
The Enterprise Application and Service Provider Awards recognize the most innovative use of MEF 3.0, Carrier Ethernet, or SD-WAN services to meet application requirements of industry verticals and recognize leadership in the development and delivery, as well as excellence, in network and connectivity services.
“With our PLDT carrier ethernet solutions, we ensure the delivery of high-speed and reliable connectivity that’s hinged on advanced infrastructure to enable innovation and growth for businesses in the Asia Pacific,” said Joachim Horn, PLDT and Smart Chief Technology and Information Advisor.
