Early years

Congressional franchise, formal launch

Paolo Villar founded the company in 2017. The following year in 2018, it obtained its 25-year Congressional franchise to operate telecommunication system under Republic Act No. 11089.[1][2]

It was also interested to bid for the country's third major telecommunications provider, but were backed out after internal discussions.[3]
