**************************************************************************************
I Heart Studios provides a one-stop solution for clients to produce high quality visual content, photography and moving image, for e-commerce, editorial, social media and campaign purposes. It focuses on fashion, beauty and lifestyle sectors, but also offers services to other industries such as fast moving consumer goods, electronics and corporate marketing.
Its Global CEO, Mr Sjors Bos, said that the company has been looking to expand in Asia Pacific region since 2014. After successfully launching its business in London and Amsterdam, The Netherlands in 2011 and 2016 respectively, it decided that Hong Kong was the ideal entry point for Asia Pacific region.
Mr Bos said, "Hong Kong is still the place where East meets West. The city has a dynamic local marketplace and entrepreneurship as well as great connectivity to the wider Asia Pacific region. There are sustainable local and global opportunities for us to launch our business here."
He added, "Our Hong Kong office starts with providing the local market with our services, but as a business we have a larger regional mindset for the future. We are focusing on local brands and retailers, Asia Pacific headquarters of brands and marketing agencies and will also extend our services for European customers who want to get access into Asia."
Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion, Dr Jimmy Chiang, said, "Hong Kong as one of Asia's most sought-after creative hubs welcomes the likes of I Heart Studio. With world-class internet connectivity, our city provides an excellent online and mobile platform for companies to develop their online marketing strategies, hence plenty of business opportunities for marketing companies."
