 MAA AdBall |
The Malaysia Advertising Association (MAA) AdBall was held at Shangri-La in Kuala Lumpur on a Friday evening. The theme was "Chicago" and during the competition between broadcasters and others in the ad industry, many versions of the same songs from the movie were repeated. Ning Baizura was excellent although viewing clearly from our table in the far corner of the ballroom was nigh impossible. Thanks to Dev Singh Dhaliwal from Silver Box - OMG Media for the opportunity to doll up and enjoy a great evening with newfound friends. |

 BAM |
BAM - Brand Entrepreneurs Conference 2003 Our Managing Director, Jillian Young, attended the Branding Association of Malaysia Conference held at the Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel. This Conference was aimed at Entrepreneurs in Malaysia and those in the branding industry, The officiating Guest of Honour was Y.B. Dato' Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz, the Minister of Entrepreneur Development - a very amusing guy who even had the courtesy to apologise for being late. Speakers included a number of prestigious speakers including: Datuk Jeff Yong (MD - Royal Selangor), Tan Sri Dato' Dr. Jeffrey Cheah (Founder & Chairman - Sunway Group), Dato' Jamaludin Ibrahim (DEO - Maxis), Tan Sri Dato' Lim Kok Wing (President - Malaysia Design Technology Centre). Some good case studies were presented including the rebranding exercises of Maxis and Astro. From the content presented and questions asked by the audience of over 300, it was very clear that there is an increased interest in branding in Malaysia as well as a lack of understanding about the differences and value of branding versus marketing and advertising. |

Some of Spyder Technologies' management and staff enjoyed an interesting evening at the "Sound" section of the "Intensify Your Senses" series sponsored by Kent at DeLaWi in Bangsar.
