21 November 2025, Cagayan de Oro City -- Pueblo de Oro Development Corporation Chairman and CEO Guillermo D. Luchangco, presented an overview of its upcoming investments during an exclusive meeting with business leaders from Cagayan de Oro and Misamis Oriental held at the Limketkai Luxe Hotel.
Among those requested to attend the by-invitation only briefing was Local Economic Development and Investment Promotions Officer (LEDIPO) John W. Asuncion, who joined stakeholders in learning about the company’s latest development plans for its expansive 30-hectare Uptown Cagayan de Oro estate.
According to Mr. Luchangco, Pueblo de Oro is preparing for ₱13 billion in new developments, including:
-
A World Trade Center facility that will elevate CDO’s global business connectivity;
-
Additional BPO spaces to strengthen the city’s growing IT-BPM sector; and
-
Innovation-driven, Silicon Valley–inspired sandbox that supports AI development and information technology initiatives.
These investments are expected to generate new opportunities for business, employment, and innovation—reinforcing Uptown CDO's position as one of the city’s most dynamic growth areas.
The City Government looks forward to continuing its collaboration with major developers and investors as Cagayan de Oro moves toward a more connected, competitive, and innovation-driven future.
Pueblo de Oro’s story in Cagayan de Oro began in the 1990s, when Mr. Luchangco pioneered the city’s first and largest master-planned community: the Pueblo de Oro Township in Uptown CDO. Since then, he has remained one of the city’s strongest advocates—championing CDO as an investment destination and serving as a featured speaker at the 2014 and 2023 CDO Investment Forums in Manila, among many other major business events and engagements. n
