Local Hero - PR Agency of the Year in Hong Kong
Adding yet another award in its trophy case, SPRG was named
"Local Hero 每 Public Relations Agency of the Year" in Hong Kong.
The distinctive cube trophy attests to the Group's firm position in
the PR industry, being the largest public relations consultancy in
Hong Kong. SPRG has managed many first IPO communications campaigns
in recent years, including the listings of companies from Russia,
Mongolia, Brazil and Canada. Growing from its financial roots, the
Group has expanded its clientele by tapping into consumer PR, event
marketing, and brand marketing and communications, resulting in a
solid yet diverse portfolio.
Best PR Campaign - Media Relations
The communications programme SPRG developed for United Company
RUSAL Plc. (HKEx: 486) was also named "Best PR Campaign - Media
Relations" under the MARKies awards, a new award launched by
Marketing magazine this year. SPRG executed the PR communications
programme for the very first Russian enterprise to list in Hong
Kong, and in the process brought the best of Russia to Greater
China. With the communications programme reaching out to a wide
audience, the Russian listing has become a case study used by The
Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited to promote Hong Kong as a
leading global fundraising platform.
SPRG has already been bestowed with numerous distinctions over
the past few years. Chairman and Managing Director of SPRG, Richard
Tsang, remarked, "The last eight months have been phenomenal for
the Group. We are very proud to be named 'Local Hero - PR Agency of
the Year 2011 in Hong Kong' by Marketing magazine, repeating our
success in 2010. We have also been named 'Financial Consultancy of
the Year' in 2011 by The Holmes Report and were crowned 'Asia
Pacific Network of the Year' by Campaign Asia-Pacific PR Awards
2010. All of these accolades underscore SPRG's success in Hong Kong
and Asia. The awards are also an acknowledgement of our
professionalism in delivering diverse services to our clients. We
will continue to expand beyond our home base across the Asia
Pacific region, maintain growth momentum and build on our
achievements as we uphold our commitment to being the preferred PR
partner of our clients."
