HONG KONG, Feb. 10, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- City Telecom (H.K.) Limited (HKSE:1137) (Nasdaq:CTEL) is pleased to announce our updated Investor Engagement Global Schedule.
City Telecom is unique within the Hong Kong telecom industry. Rather than being backed by a large conglomerate, City Telecom was founded in 1992 by two entrepreneurial cousins, Ricky Wong, Chairman and Paul Cheung, Vice Chairman on family and friends start-up capital of C$100,000, and we have since relied heavily on the global public capital markets to fund our infrastructure investments over the past 19 years. As such, we see partnership with the public capital markets as being essential to our existence.
In August 2009, after a long infrastructure gestation period, we hired Elite IR and re-launched our Investor Engagement initiative. Since then, global institutional investors holdings of our free float has increased from about 10% to over 50% currently.
