分众传媒 (Focus Media) is a leading digital media group in China, established in 2003. The company operates a diverse range of media products including commercial building video media, market terminal video media, apartment elevator media, outdoor large LED screen media, and cinema advertising media. Its media network covers over 300 million urban mainstream consumers in China. With innovative business models and targeted media communication, Focus Media successfully listed on the NASDAQ in July 2005, raising a record-breaking $172 million in IPO funds. In December 2007, it became the first Chinese advertising media stock to be included in the NASDAQ 100 index. The company pioneered China's outdoor video advertising network in 2003, leveraging precise audience targeting and communication effectiveness. Through strategic mergers and acquisitions, it expanded its market presence, acquiring Target Media in 2006, and Framedia in October 2005, reinforcing its leading position in the outdoor building media and elevator media markets, respectively. Currently, Focus Media operates media networks in over 100 cities and thousands of terminal locations, reaching over 300 million urban consumers daily. The company has evolved into one of China's most influential media platforms, earning recognition and approval from numerous advertisers. Its recent $2.23 billion post-IPO equity investment in July 2018 from CBC Capital and Alibaba Group further highlights its strong growth prospects.
