The signatories representing GT Capital were its Vice Chairman Mr. Alfred V. Ty and its President Mr. Carmelo Maria Luza Bautista, while the signatory representing Ateneo de Manila University was its President Fr. Roberto Yap, S.J. Furthermore, Ateneo de Manila University Board of Trustees Chairperson Ms. Bernadine T. Siy, Federal Land Vice Chairman and FNG President Mr. William Thomas Mirasol, FNG Vice Chairman Mr. Yusuke Hirano, and Federal Land President Mr. Jose Mari H. Banzon were also present during the ceremony.

The new Ateneo campus will rise in a 15-hectare parcel of land at Riverpark in General Trias City, Cavite. It is the latest addition to a growing number of strategic developments in the township, which currently include a UNIQLO Logistics Facility and the upcoming SM City General Trias. By 2026, Riverpark residents will gain direct access to the Open Canal Interchange of the Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX), significantly improving travel time to and from the township. Last May, FNG reported the 100% sell-out of the first tranche of commercial lots in Riverpark, which are set to be developed into office, retail, and other mixed-use facilities.

“Ateneo’s presence in Riverpark not only strengthens the educational landscape of Cavite but also uplifts the lives of the communities we serve. Our investment in this campus reflects our long-term commitment to creating sustainable value for generations of Filipinos, anchored on the values of excellence and service.,” GT Capital Vice Chairman Mr. Alfred V. Ty said.

Ateneo’s Cavite campus is expected to bring holistic and world-class education closer to learners residing south of Metro Manila and nearby provinces. The school is targeted to open by 2030.

“The new Ateneo campus in Riverpark allows us to extend our mission and provide more families in Cavite and nearby provinces with access to quality education rooted in our Jesuit tradition,” Ateneo de Manila University President Fr. Roberto Yap, S.J. noted.

Riverpark, a Federal Land Community, is envisioned to be “The Next-Gen City of the South,” designed as a sustainable development that promotes smart and holistic living. The inclusion of an Ateneo campus further elevates the township and reinforces its position as a catalyst for growth and innovation in the South.
