Netopia Internet Cafe - SM Bacoor - Pasig City, Philippines

Netopia was founded by two computer techies in 1996. It began as a private gaming room where friends could pit their eye-hand coordination skills against each other. The original Katipunan branch opened its doors to the public in January 1997. By sheer word of mouth, Netopia effortlessly attracted a wave of loyal and happy customers. Behind Netopia's success is its unwavering commitment to provide excellent customer service and to bring the latest Internet-related technology to its branches.

Netopia is a network of owned and franchised retail outlets engaged in computer and networked computer leasing, shared Internet access, desktop publishing services, ePIN dispensing and other value-added services. Netopia’s brand has a national footprint and serves up to 20,000 customers
