Velox Networks, a leading cloud telephony provider based in Singapore, has announced its expansion into the Philippines, marking its third Southeast Asian market after Singapore and Malaysia. This strategic move follows the enactment of the Konektadong Pinoy Act, a landmark telecommunications law aimed at modernising the country’s voice and data infrastructure. The legislation creates favourable conditions for cloud-native communications providers, allowing them to offer enterprise-grade voice infrastructure without significant physical network investments.
Martin Nygate, Founder and CEO of Velox Networks, stated, “The Philippines is at an inflection point. New legislation is finally creating the regulatory framework for modern telecommunications infrastructure.”
Velox Networks is not entering the market remotely; it has established a 12-person team across Manila, Cebu, and other key cities. This local presence underscores the company’s commitment to providing the same level of service and support as in Singapore and Malaysia. The Philippines’ telecommunications challenges, such as the notorious “spaghetti wires,” are being addressed through recent government actions, including the Metro Manila Council’s resolution for cable management and Cebu City’s underground cabling ordinances.
Velox’s platform offers cloud-based business phone numbers, automatic call recording, CRM integrations, and enterprise-grade security, catering to over one million micro, small, and medium enterprises in the Philippines. As regulatory scrutiny around data privacy increases, Velox aims to bridge the gap between consumer-grade tools and enterprise requirements, enhancing productivity and operational resilience.
