About the RISE Group

In 2012, a team of software developers found themselves jumping through hoops, past cracks, and over spikes just to set up a connection for their office in Cebu, Philippines. What’s more: almost every other business they knew had the same experience.

By 2015, the cause for better connectivity found itself an advocate: RISE was established to drive solutions for faster internet service. We are on a mission to help create a landscape for accelerated growth in the local internet service industry.

The Mission

Accelerate Internet for the Philippines

The RISE Group

We provide business and wholesale internet services for enterprises and SMEs, for carrier companies and property developers. Alongside fast and reliable connectivity, our services include access to an internet exchange, to infrastructure solutions, and technical expertise. We’ve conquered our fair share of hoops, cracks, spikes — and our work has only just begun.
