The following is issued on behalf of the Cyberport Management Company Limited:

Following on the recent success of Digital Entertainment Leadership Forum and Global ICT Submit held at Cyberport and the winning of the internationally acclaimed Intelligent Building of the Year 2004 award, Cyberport's premier venue has again been chosen by the world's news leader, CNN, as the location for filming its new technology programme, "Spark".

Cyberport is a platform for content creation, management and delivery. It operates a multi-million dollar Digital Media Centre, among other value-added facilities, for the creative digital multimedia industry in Hong Kong. Cyberport's vision of people, technology and business integration echoes with the programme's objective and is therefore chosen by CNN.

"SPARK" is a new monthly half-hour programme launching on CNN that crosses the globe to look at how business, technology and people intersect.

Hong Kong viewers can enjoy the first episode and take a closer look at this award-winning development tomorrow (July 25) on CNN at 8.30pm. The replay of the programme will be aired on the following Saturday (July 31) at 6.30pm."'Spark" airs across the world on CNN, including Asia-Pacific, South Asia, Europe/Middle East/Africa, Latin America, and North America.
