NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 11/13/15 — EFactor Group Corp. (OTCQB: EFCT) (“EFactor Group”, the “Group” or the “Company”), the premier business network for entrepreneurs designed to provide a variety of tools and business services to help drive business success, today announced the opening of a Hong Kong Office opening to support and grow EFactor and ELEQT membership throughout Asia.
EFactor Group–s Social Networks division has been active in Hong Kong, China and Singapore since 2009 and currently has over 200,000 EFactor.com and ELEQT members in Asia. The Group–s newly-opened Hong Kong office will be staffed by Ravindra Ngo and Logan Alleshouse, both successful entrepreneurs and marketing experts with a combined 20 years of business services sales and marketing experience in Asia. In coordination with the Group–s global strategy, EFactor–s Hong Kong-based staff will manage membership services, create and co-author entrepreneurial content, drive member outreach, develop and schedule live and web-based seminars and coordinate co-marketing efforts with brand-leading companies in Hong Kong such as Quintassentially, Inc.
“Hong Kong is well known for its entrepreneurial spirit and is host to some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world,” began Marion Freijsen, COO of EFactor Group Corp. “This spirit of entrepreneurism across the region has also been widely reported in China where Chinese entrepreneurs– stories and success have become equally legendary. China quickly became one of our five top markets when we launched EFactor.com in 2008 and we have hosted dozens of events including a “Made for China” global event in which 4 top US universities competed with 4 top Chinese universities for the best business idea. We have spoken at major conferences in China, been interviewed on Ding Ding TV and traveled widely throughout China to meet with members and witnessed entrepreneurial efforts at every stop. Our subsidiary, ELEQT, has also experienced similar levels of growth and opportunity for their 40,000 members who we are actively connecting to EFactor.com–s network. We are excited to now solidify our growth in the region through the establishment of a staffed office and increased presence in the market,” Freijsen concluded.
“Asia and Hong Kong are tailor-made markets for the Social Networks division,” began Ruud Smeets, President of social networks at EFactor Group. “The value of networking is very strong throughout Asia and exclusive and highly-focused networks of ELEQT and EFactor.com have developed a strong following in a short period of time. Asia also provides us with many companies and brands with whom we can collaborate and cross market our live and web-based events and seminars with their target audiences, most of whom are part of our social networks already. Our goal is to increase our membership in Asia 10-fold to 2.0 million members by the end of 2017,” Smeets concluded.
EFactor Group – Hong Kong has initiated plans to host 50 seminars and events for its members in Hong Kong, Singapore and China throughout 2016. In addition to the coordination and planning of events, the Company–s Hong Kong office staff is targeting a 100% increase in membership such as in Asia by the end of 2016 by growing membership in current markets and expanding to other markets like Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia and Indonesia.
