Under the agreement, Imperium Crown is granted the usage of the trade mark 'Beerfest Asia' in Shandong Province, China for an initial term of one year.

Mr Chua Wee Phong, Chairman of Sphere Exhibits which owns Beerfest Asia, said: 'With Beerfest Asia marking its 10th anniversary this year, our new partnership with Imperium Crown is a timely and significant milestone. Beerfest Asia has been enjoying commercial success over the years and is well-positioned to grow beyond Singapore to a wider global audience. We are confident of replicating our success for Beerfest Shandong, and are in talks to hold Beerfest in Bangkok, Thailand, later this year.'
Mr Sun Bowen, Executive Director of Imperium Crown, said: 'This is the first time Beerfest Asia will be held in the PRC and we are delighted that it will be held at our Wonder Stone Park. Leveraging on the expertise provided by UnUsUaL Productions, we are confident that Beerfest Shandong will be a success and provide a wonderful platform for both domestic and international visitors to get to know more about our Wonder Stone Park. The event is also highly scalable, and together with Beerfest Asia and UnUsUaL Productions, future Beerfest editions in other cities is possible as well.'
