PLDT’s ICT subsidiary, ePLDT, has entered into a strategic partnership with Vantiq, a global provider of real-time AI orchestration technology, to further strengthen ePLDT’s Pilipinas AI sovereign AI ecosystem and help enterprises move beyond AI experimentation to real-time production-ready AI operations.
This collaboration builds on ePLDT’s previous partnership with Dell Technologies and Katonic AI, which established the foundation for Pilipinas AI, the country’s first sovereign AI solution stack, by combining a complete GPU management platform and AI orchestration layer.
Held at VITRO station. Rosa, the country’s first AI-enabled hyperscale data center, Pilipinas AI allows organizations to harness the full potential of AI without the burden of building or managing their own infrastructure. It also supports local data privacy requirements and strengthens digital sovereignty by keeping critical data and workloads within Philippine borders.
ePLDT is using Vantiq to add real-time edge-to-cloud capabilities to Pilipinas AI by connecting data, systems, and workflows. This enables businesses and government agencies to sense events, analyze them with AI, coordinate responses, and take action in real-time as events unfold.
From AI capabilities to real-time impact
Vantiq’s real-time AI orchestration capabilities enable Pilipinas AI to support a new class of intelligent applications for industries and institutions where speed, context, and coordinated actions are critical. These include emergency response coordination, public safety operations, intelligent citizen services, customer experience automation, cybersecurity response, logistics optimization, medical operations, and real-time business decision-making.
For businesses, this means being able to respond more quickly to customer needs, business interruptions, security risks, and market changes. It creates an opportunity for government and local governments to deliver more responsive public services, improve situational awareness, and coordinate actions across multiple systems and teams.
As Pilipinas AI continues to evolve, ePLDT remains committed to helping Philippine businesses and institutions move to the next stage of digital transformation with confidence. The next phase of digital transformation is defined by real-time intelligence, AI-enabled operations, and future-ready services that create meaningful value for businesses, communities, and countries.

Pilipinas AI is designed to help organizations in the Philippines deploy AI with the right foundations: secure infrastructure, local data residency, enterprise-grade capabilities, and access to cutting-edge global technology. Our collaboration with Vantiq strengthens that vision by bringing AI closer to where decisions are made and action is needed. This enables customers to operationalize AI in ways that are practical, scalable, and directly related to business and public service priorities.
Marty Sprinzen, Vantiq Co-Founder and CEO
AI creates the most value when connected to real-world operations, helping organizations take action at the right time. We are working with ePLDT to help bring real-time operational AI to the Philippines through a platform that can support intelligent systems that adapt, adjust, and respond as conditions change.
