Cordlife Medical Philippines Inc. (Cordlife), a fully owned subsidiary of Cordlife Group Ltd., a Singapore Exchange mainboard-listed consumer healthcare company catering to the mother and child segment, recently opened its newly upgraded stem cell processing and cryopreservation facility at UP-Ayalaland Technohub in Quezon City.

This expansion came less than five years from the opening of its facility in the country and was mainly driven by the growing number of parents who recognize the value of banking here their babys stem cells.

The event launch held at Crowne Plaza in Ortigas was hosted by popular DJ Delamar Arias and graced by celebrity moms, actress and beauty queen Lara Quigaman and journalist Nia Corpuz. Delamar, Lara and Nia all shared their personal experiences of being Cordlife moms themselves.

Also in attendance to underscore Cordlifes commitment to Filipino parents and their children were Cordlife Group CEO Jeremy Yee, Cordlife Philippines medical director Dr. Arvin Faundo and Cordlife Philippines director Michael Arnonobal.
