One other example would be the Fairy Tale Forest - Presented by PANDORA, which was launched earlier in August.Ivan Lee, director of corporate alliance of Hong Kong Disneyland, told Marketing that visitors can expect more collaborations to come."We are always looking for brands that complement our business strategy. In this case, we have many commonalities with AIA in the markets that we reach out to, as well as brand promises," he said."It's not just about sponsorship and brand placement - we try to bring AIA's brand to life by having a collective story-telling within the attraction. Since the attraction is protection-themed, we work with AIA to create a site story in which AIA is a trusted partner of Tony Stark and Stark Enterprise in terms of protecting their most valuable exhibits they are bringing to Hong Kong."In the collaboration, AIA will provide protection for some of the valuable collections displayed in Stark Expo, such as the Arc Reactor, the Iron Man MARK I suit, etc. AIA selected customers will be able to enjoy a preview experience before the attraction's opening.Bonnie Tse, general manager, business strategy and marketing at AIA Hong Kong and Macau, added that the multi-year corporate alliance will help strengthen brand promises by bringing happy memories and an exciting experience to people of all pages.
