Sands China operates five integrated resorts in Macao on the Cotai Strip.
Sands China and CCTV.com
will jointly collaborate to elevate their media networks with “one
network + two destinations + multiple platforms”. Both parties will
co-organise online and offline activities in the fields of cultural
tourism, sports industry, education and research, art and culture,
cultural branding, among others.
Here are some highlights of the cross-sector initiatives:
In the area of cultural tourism, both partners will
co-organise cultural events, art performances and concerts with the aim
to promote Chinese traditional culture and classic works of art to both
Chinese and overseas audiences and propel Macao to become a “City of
Performing Arts”.
Both parties will work together on activities such as sports events,
virtual sports and e-sports competitions to promote the role of sports
in holistic human development and to contribute to Macau’s positioning
as a “City of Sports”.
When it comes to education and research, both
partners will co-host a series of online and offline research
programmes, including a study project, which aims to enhance young
people’s understanding and appreciation of Chinese culture.
To promote art and culture, the two organisations
will partner in online and offline cultural activities in Macao with the
intent to promote Chinese culture including markets, temple fairs, and
art and culture conferences to develop cultural heritage and the local
art industry.
In terms of cultural branding, the partners will
develop new cultural brands or promoting existing ones related to stage
plays, variety shows, films, TV dramas and online AV content through
organising events, tours, exhibitions and festivals. The parties will
also work together to produce stage plays, digital dramas and other
intellectual property projects in Macau. The mutual goal is to promote
local culture in Macao.
For online promotional activities and co-marketing,
each party will use its resources, experience and market penetration,
and with China’s domestic and international influence in entertainment
and cultural events, to establish a regular co-marketing mechanism,
covering online promotion, local resource integration and marketing
cooperation.
