HONG KONG, Aug. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Asiaray Media Group Limited ("Asiaray" or the "Group"; stock code: 1993.HK), a leading out-of-home media company with a strategic focus on airport and metro advertising, has been appointed as the exclusive advertising agency of the 2017 FIA Formula E Hong Kong E-Prix ("Hong Kong E-Prix") for the second consecutive year. The Hong Kong E-Prix is to be held in Central on 2-3 December 2017, marking the start of the fourth season of the FIA Formula E Championship and the second E-Prix in Hong Kong.

In light of excellent "Space Management" model of Asiaray, especially in creatively exploring and utilizing advertising spaces, the types of media to be managed by Asiaray this time have been doubled from last year. On top of the advertising spaces of Spectator Fence, the IFC Footbridge and the Central Terminal Building banner, Asiaray is granted more media resources at key locations in both the racing venue and public area, including the LED Wall Banner, the Grandstand Banner and Freestanding Flags. In recognition of the overwhelming response last year with more than 20,000 people attending the inaugural Hong Kong E-Prix, a broadcast audience of 18.1 million worldwide and more than 100 key sponsors and partners, the Hong Kong E-Prix is set to be not only a mega sporting event with the focus on environmental protection, but also a travel attraction for Hong Kong and a golden high-profile advertising opportunity for leading brands.

For the first Hong Kong E-Prix, Asiaray managed to accomplish all preparation of sophisticated facilities within a one-month period, despite the tight schedule and technical difficulties. This impressive feat included around 30 days for both printing and installation of appropriately 2,500 running meters of outdoor advertisement from Central to Admiralty. This experience has equipped Asiaray for another year of successful cooperation with Hong Kong E-Prix relying on its demonstrated professionalism and efficiency.

Mr. Vincent Lam, Chairman and Executive Director of Asiaray, said, "We are honored and delighted to be appointed as the exclusive adverting agency for the Hong Kong E-Prix for the second consecutive year. The stunning success of the 2016 Hong Kong E-Prix is a solid testimony that we are capable of not only providing innovative media solutions at airports and metro lines, but also extending our expertise beyond traditional venues and advertising caliber for international events. The further enhanced cooperation across more media types also underlines the organizer's appreciation of Asiaray's professionalism and efficiency in accomplishing complicated preparations across a wider area within a tight schedule."
