BIZ BUZZ: Globe’s Delgado gets on world stage

Globe Telecom Inc. chief commercial officer Darius Delgado is taking on a bigger role, one that can influence global strategies for broadband internet development and rollout.
The telco giant proudly announced that Delgado is the first Filipino to be appointed to the board of the Geneva-headquartered World Broadband Association (WBBA).
The young organization, which was only established in July 2021, champions equitable internet access for everyone, which is deemed necessary in today’s increasingly digital landscape.
“We look forward to contributing insights and innovations that will enhance connectivity and expand access, especially in emerging markets such as the Philippines,” Delgado said.
“It’s a great opportunity for them (Globe) to join the growing family of WBBA members, to come together and discuss the challenges and opportunities of broadband in a fast-changing world,” WBBA director general Martin Creaner said.
Globe joined the WBBA in April last year.
