UK-headquartered Beyond, a global Google Cloud Premier Partner, has officially entered the Philippine market, strengthening the country’s role as a growing hub for AI, cloud engineering, and cybersecurity talent in the Asia-Pacific region.
The launch, held at Blackbird at the Nielson Tower in Makati City, marked Beyond’s formal expansion into the Philippines as part of its global growth strategy, alongside new operations in Romania and Argentina. The company said it will invest in Filipino engineering talent to support the increasing global demand for cloud, artificial intelligence (AI), customer experience, and cybersecurity solutions.
Beyond specializes exclusively in Google Cloud technologies, positioning itself as a dedicated cloud engineering company rather than a general technology services provider. More than 75% of its workforce consists of hands-on technical specialists focused on cloud infrastructure, AI, security, and digital commerce.
The company delivers enterprise technology solutions for global organizations, including HSBC, PayPal, PUMA, Snap, and Deutsche Bank, helping accelerate digital transformation through cloud-native platforms and AI-driven services.
According to Beyond, the Philippine expansion will strengthen its Asia-Pacific delivery capabilities while providing local enterprises with access to advanced Google Cloud expertise, AI adoption strategies, cybersecurity services, and cloud modernization.
The launch was attended by leaders from the Philippine and UK technology, business, government, and academic sectors, including representatives from the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA), Board of Investments (BOI), Department of Budget and Management (DBM), Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC), the Office of the President, Ayala Land, SEIPI, Huawei Philippines, QBO Innovation Hub, the British Council, and the Nordic Chamber of Commerce.
Led by CEO Alan Paton, Beyond said it aims to become the world’s leading Google Cloud engineering company by continuing to expand its engineering capabilities and investing in technical talent across Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific.
