Light & Wonder has officially opened its new Philippines office and showroom, located on the edges of the Clark Freeport Zone near Angeles City – around two hours north of Manila by car.
The opening of the new office, which is located on the fifth floor of a building on Manuel A. Roxas Highway and covers 580 square meters, was attended by key Light & Wonder officials including CEO of Gaming Siobhan Lane, CEO of iGaming Simon Johnson, Vice President and Managing Director, Asia, Glenn Huybrecht and VP Strategic Development, Asia, Ken Jolly.
PAGCOR officials, including Chairman and CEO Alejandro Tengco, were also in attendance.
Speaking with IAG during the event, Lane said the location of the office and showroom – a partnership with distributor RGB International – is strategically significant for Light & Wonder.
“We really want to make sure we’re showing up in Clark and Manila, so we partnered with RGB to make sure we have a great offering in the new showroom in the Manila area,” she explained.
“We believe this is a great location to attract talent and build a team because we’re investing in more resources. It also expands our footprint since we have a showroom with RGB in Manila and we wanted to make sure we had a footprint and a physical presence here in Clark so we could expand across the country.
“This location offers an opportunity for our employees, our creators, to bring their families here and just settle here as part of the Light & Wonder team.
“The physical presence is a demonstration of our commitment to the market and investment in the market. Growing our team and resources here is another demonstration of that and certainly our intention is to bring more and more products and great games to the market.”
