"M" Mark System enhancement measures take effect
**********************************************************
     ​The Major Sports Events Committee (MSEC) launched various measures on April 1 this year to enhance the "M" Mark System with a view to attracting more major international sports events to be held in Hong Kong.   

     Major enhancement measures include increasing the funding ceiling for each event to $15 million, lifting the quota of "M" Mark events to be organised by the same applicant each year, and relaxing the eligibility of the applicants for "M" Mark events to cover events organised by "national sports associations" as well as other private or non-governmental organisations, etc.

     For details of the "M" Mark events and the latest application guidelines, please visit www.mevents.org.hk.

     The "M" Mark System was launched in 2004 to support the staging of more major international sports events in Hong Kong. Major international sports events meeting the assessment criteria will be granted "M" Mark status and funding support (if applicable) by the MSEC. 

     The Chief Executive announced in the 2022 Policy Address the enhancement of the "M" Mark System to promote Hong Kong as a centre for mega international sports events.
