Focus Media Holdings Limited is a member of the NASDAQ-100 Index which comprises 100 of the largest domestic and international non-financial companies listed on NASDAQ based on market capitalization.

Our medium is the only form of advertising permitted at the elevator waiting lobbies of more than 200 premium office & commercial buildings in the prime business districts, reaching the highly-desired but hardest-to-reach group of business executives. "Singapore should be an ideal environment for OOH but in-building advertising formats, such as TV in lift lobbies" (source: Goldman Sachs).

"Digital Billboards is the principle driver-of-growth for OOH, the second-fastest-growing advertising sector, after the Internet" (source: PricewaterhouseCoopers). Consumers spend more time at work and on-the-move than at home; while ad avoidance is a growing problem, ad exposure at elevator lobbies is highly captive and difficult to avoid.

Singapore is well known for its hectic and fast-paced lifestyle. The number of business executives being reached by traditional media is much lower than any other group of audience; with a monthly reach of over 33 million people-times (or 58% of all business executives in Singapore), we are also an ideal medium to complement advertising on traditional television. Through our unique medium, advertisers are able to reach their precise target audience in a totally captive environment.

Besides our presence at office & commercial buildings, we are also the only form of digital OOH advertising platform available at all Singapore Post's Post Offices, all People's Association's Community Clubs and all Housing Development Board's Neighbourhood Shopping Centres.

The Focus Media Television Network is also available in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, India, Australia, Russia, Latin America and Africa

We are inviting dynamic Media Sales Professionals with strong media industry contacts to participate in our company's rapid growth and our continued efforts to pioneer the next-generation digital Out-of-Home media industry, the fastest growing media sector after the Internet.
