In its climb to an industry-leading position, SPRG has handled various high-profile IPOs in Hong Kong over the past two decades, including those involving mainland Chinese incorporated companies (H-shares) and leading privately owned enterprises from the PRC, some of which represent record-breaking listings. Irrespective of company size, SPRG provides the best IPO/IR value to its clients, many of whom go on to build lasting bonds with the investment community.

The Group is also renowned for its pioneering role while assisting foreign corporations tap the Hong Kong/Asia market. SPRG has been responsible for many "firsts of its kind" IPOs, including the first Brazilian, Canadian, Japanese, Korean, Mongolian and Russian listings on the Hong Kong bourse, as well as the first HDR and first fundraising HDR programme. In recent years, SPRG has handled all Japanese new listings in Hong Kong. It also assisted many local brands to get listed by successfully drawing the attention of target investors.

SPRG has devised 37 award-winning financial communications programmes/campaigns for its clients. These industry accolades have been earned locally, regionally and even internationally. Some of the more prestigious awards include The PRWeek Awards, Marketing Excellence Awards, The Asia Pacific SABRE Awards, The Stevie Awards, The Bulldog Awards and The Gold Standard Awards.

The Group's success can be attributed to an experienced and professional team, whose dedication and loyalty has resulted in the high conversion of IPO clients into long-term retainer clients. Currently, SPRG is serving more than 160 listed companies in Hong Kong on an ongoing basis.

Mr Richard Tsang, Chairman of SPRG, remarked, "Our 300th IPO communications programme certainly represents a major milestone, and perfectly coincides with our 20th anniversary. As the hard work and dedication of our colleagues continue to earn the trust and support of a greater number of clients and partners, I trust that SPRG will sustain its growth momentum and attain even greater heights in the years ahead."
