As the Asia-Pacific PR Awards ceremony turned into a milestone event for SPRG., Chairman and
Managing Director of SPRG, Mr Richard Tsang, said, “SPRG is the first Asian home-grown PR
network to win the ‘Asia Pacific Network of the Year’ title. 2010 has proven to be a highly
fruitful year for SPRG. Not only does it mark our 15th anniversary, but the year has also been
laden with industry awards. Only recently we were named ‘Local Hero of the Public Relations
Agency of the Year’ and ‘Local Hero of the Media Relations Agency of the Year’ by Marketing
magazine. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to my colleagues,
clients and partners. In coming years, we will seek to build on our achievements and become the
most preferred PR partner of our clients. While we are an award winning agency that has
enjoyed significant success, the ability to continue working hand-in-hand with clients to meet their
PR goals remains our ultimate reward.”
