Unveiling 12 Selected Teams of Local Digital Advertising Start-ups & Emerging Writers

HONG KONG, Feb. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Hong Kong Digital Advertising Start-ups X Publishing (Writers) Promotion Support Scheme (the “Support Scheme”), organized by Hong Kong Association of Interactive Marketing (“HKAIM”), with support from Create Hong Kong (“CreateHK”) of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (“HKSAR Government”) as the lead sponsor, aims to nurture local digital advertising start-ups since its launch in 2019. The Support Scheme provides subsidy, training and supports to local digital advertising start-ups which will promote local emerging writers and their designated books through digital advertising. At the same time, more local emerging writers and their publishers will have the opportunity to explore and utilize digital advertising, so that there will be more cross-sectoral collaboration and development possibilities between the digital advertising industry and the publishing industry.

Entering its 6th edition in 2024, the Support Scheme received overwhelming response to its call for applications which was ended in late 2023, with 55 digital advertising start-ups and 30 emerging writers. The HKAIM has selected among the applicants and paired up 12 teams, each comprises a digital advertising start-up and an emerging writer. The designated books of applied emerging writers cover a wide range of topics, which included history, culture, economics, management, working life, counseling, ecology, sports, autobiography, picture book, and more. The diversity would stimulate more creativities from the digital advertising start-ups as they plan the related campaigns.

The HKAIM successfully kicked off the 6th Support Scheme with a Launch Ceremony at Seminar Hall, Xiqu Centre on 23 February. Mrs. Lowell Cho, Assistant Head of CreateHK, was invited to be the Guest of Honor. Along with her, Chairman of the HKAIM Mr. Francis Fong and Vice Chairman of Hong Kong Publishing Federation Mr. William So launched this year’s Support Scheme by announcing the 12 participating teams. (Full list below)

Mrs. Lowell Cho, Assistant Head of CreateHK, remarked in her speech that the government is committed to advancing the industrialization of arts and creativity. To this end, it will allocate a total of HK$4.3 billion to two funding schemes under CreateHK, aiming to facilitate more cross-disciplinary projects. She also thanked the HKAIM for its effort on organizing the 6th Support Scheme and she congratulated all the selected digital advertising start-ups and emerging local writers.

Each digital advertising start-up will receive a subsidy of up to HK$240,000 to design, plan and execute a digital advertising campaign for the designated book of the matched emerging writer over a three-month supporting period. In addition, the HKAIM will provide training by industry experts, helping them to improve the creative concept and execution of their digital advertising campaigns. The Support Scheme not only creates an opportunity for the digital advertising and publishing industries to collaborate, it also promotes Chinese books through viral digital campaigns and cultivates a more robust reading culture.

In addition, the HKAIM will be promoting the participating digital advertising startups and emerging writers along with the selected books through a wide range of promotion channels including the Support Scheme’s official website, internet, social media, etc. For the 11 digital advertising projects created under last year’s (the 5th) Support Scheme, the campaigns reached nearly 17.13 million people, with nearly 2.53 million engagements, and nearly 8.47 million views, successfully bringing attention to the selected books by the emerging writers, and delivering accurate messages from the books to the target audience, creating more opportunities for readers and emerging writers to interact and communicate. The HKAIM is hopeful that this year’s Support Scheme will achieve similarly stellar results.

The HKAIM will also host a booth at Hong Kong Book Fair 2024 in July to exhibit the 12 digital advertising campaigns and the designated books. The Digital Advertising Design (for Publishing) Awards Competition and Presentation Ceremony is tentatively scheduled for July to recognize the best digital advertising campaign among the 12 as determined by industry experts. The “My Favourite Digital Advertising (for Publishing) Award” as determined by public voting will also be presented at the ceremony. The Presentation Ceremony will highlight the digital advertising campaigns as well as recognize the efforts of the participating teams.

The HKAIM will post regular updates about the Support Scheme and the 12 teams on our official website and Facebook page. For more details about the Support Scheme, please visit:

The Inspiration Habitat shows how TCL’s experience across photovoltaic, energy storage and connected-home technology can support a more coordinated approach to future living

BERLIN, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At IFA 2026, TCL Industries and TCL Technology will jointly present frontier technologies and innovative products across three core sectors: smart devices, display and clean energy. Under the theme “Inspiration Habitat,” TCL creates an immersive exhibition space that visitors can step into, touch and experience, bringing its vision of AI-enabled smart living across every scenario to life.

TCL demonstrates how smart energy management is becoming an increasingly important part of the connected-home experience. By bringing together solar generation, battery storage, appliances and smart-home technologies, the company showcases a more integrated approach to how energy is produced, managed and consumed in everyday life.

Complete Home Energy Ecosystem

At IFA, TCL brings this journey full circle, demonstrating how expertise developed at industrial scale can help create smarter, more connected and more sustainable homes.

TCL’s showcase will include the latest residential energy solutions from SunPower Home Energy and TCL Smart Home, including new SunPower Origin back-contact panels, TCL T5 Pro TOPCon shingled and C2 back-contact panels, residential battery storage and heat pumps. An intelligent Home Energy Management System connects energy generation, storage, heating and household demand through a single platform, giving homeowners greater visibility and control over energy optimization to enable more sustainable living.

“What makes TCL’s energy vision unique is that it begins long before the home,” said Valentina Maggiore, Vice President Marketing, TCL SunPower, the solar division of TCL. “We don’t just develop energy technologies, we deploy them at scale across our own manufacturing operations. In 2025, renewable energy sources, including green electricity and self-generated solar power, accounted for 11.7% of TCL Industries’ energy consumption. Running large-scale solar and storage in our factories gives us practical insights that help to turn our operational experience into more reliable residential solutions.”

This approach gives tangible expression to TCL’s broader strategy, connecting its experience in advanced manufacturing, operational ESG initiatives, and smart technologies with practical solutions for consumers—spanning the entire journey from industrial innovation to life at home.

Experience TCL at IFA 2026

Visitors and media can experience the TCL Inspiration Habitat in Hall 21A, Messe Berlin, from 4 to 8 September 2026.

Product availability and supported features may vary by market.

Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy Expands Client Reach Across Singapore and Malaysia as Business Enters Next Phase of Growth

Published

on

By

SINGAPORE, Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy is marking a new phase of business growth, expanding its reach beyond Singapore to serve a growing client base in Malaysia while strengthening its operations locally with a move to larger premises.

Founded in 2022 by Master Liang, the consultancy has developed from his independent Feng Shui practice, which began in 2018, into a growing consultancy providing personalised Residential and Commercial Feng Shui, Bazi consultation, Baby Naming and Auspicious Date Selection services for ROM and weddings, Caesarean births, grand openings and other important occasions.

The consultancy’s growth has been driven largely by existing client relationships and referrals, with clients introducing family members, friends and colleagues to Master Liang’s services. This network has also contributed to the consultancy’s growing presence in Malaysia, where engagements have included referrals as well as consultations connected to property investments made by existing clients.

“Many of our opportunities have grown naturally through the trust and support of our clients,” said Master Liang. “Clients who have worked with me have introduced their family members, friends and colleagues, and this has allowed the consultancy to gradually reach more people both in Singapore and Malaysia.”

Expanding Beyond Singapore

The expansion of services into Malaysia represents an important step in the consultancy’s development beyond its home market in Singapore.

As more existing clients develop personal and property interests across the region, Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy has extended its services to support clients with needs in Malaysia. The development reflects the consultancy’s broader growth while maintaining the personalised approach that has been central to the practice since its beginnings.

In Singapore, the consultancy also reached another milestone in 2025 with its move from a smaller office to larger premises.

The expanded space was selected to provide greater privacy and comfort during consultations, while its central location makes the consultancy more accessible to clients travelling from different parts of Singapore.

Together, the larger Singapore premises and growing Malaysian client base reflect the consultancy’s progression from Master Liang’s early independent practice in 2018 to the establishment of Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy in 2022 and its continued development today.

Growth Built on Long-Term Client Relationships

While the business continues to expand, Master Liang says maintaining long-term relationships with clients remains a key priority.

Rather than treating consultations as one-off engagements, the consultancy focuses on understanding each client’s individual circumstances and providing personalised guidance. Master Liang attributes much of the business’s development to this approach and the relationships established with clients over the years.

“I believe strongly in long-term relationships,” said Master Liang. “Every client who comes to me deserves the same respect, attention and quality of service. Personal interaction is something I want to preserve even as the business continues to grow.”

Master Liang also places an emphasis on helping clients understand the reasoning behind his recommendations.

These services form part of the consultancy’s broader aim of supporting clients across areas including career, business, family, relationships and personal development.

Looking Ahead

As Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy enters its next stage of growth, its focus will remain on strengthening its presence in Singapore, serving its expanding client community in Malaysia and continuing to develop the practice while preserving its personalised service model.

Continued professional development will also remain a priority for Master Liang through ongoing learning, interaction with peers and the study of different cases as the practice responds to changing social and business environments.

“My priority moving forward is to continue having genuine, personal interactions with my clients and to provide thoughtful guidance based on their individual circumstances,” Master Liang said. “As we grow, I want that personal connection to remain at the heart of what we do.”

About Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy

Founded in Singapore in 2022 by Master Liang, Feng Shui Master Liang Consultancy provides personalised Residential and Commercial Feng Shui, Bazi consultation, Baby Naming, Auspicious Date Selection and related services. Master Liang began practising Feng Shui and Bazi in 2018 and is a holder of DX lineage Yang Gong Yin Yang Zhai San He San Yuan Feng Shui.

The consultancy serves clients in Singapore and Malaysia and focuses on building long-term client relationships through personalised consultations and guidance.
