All companies publicly listed and funded by the general public have the key responsibility of educating and guiding all their shareholders about the company’s past financial performance, challenges, upcoming expansions, future growth outlook etc. This helps active investors in gauging whether or not to invest in your company’s future, as hearing directly from the company is an unmatched source.
PSX constantly endeavor to facilitate this requirement and offer to not only assist you in getting the relevant audience, but also offers PSX premises to facilitate the event. PSX’s team assists in the entire process to maximize Corporate Briefing Program’s productivity. Holding these briefings also qualifies our corporate members for PSX’s prestigious Top Company Awards.

Beginning a company’s journey towards an IPO is a daunting task requiring efforts on all fronts to maximize the proceeds from a public offering. Keeping the marketing challenges for IPO’s in mind, PSX has created a customized proposition for each Equity based IPO client to introduce the company to the general investment community – including preparing a documentary from concept to execution consisting of short videos, preparing and implementing the digital media plan and ensuring reach of the message. The digital execution and message will have the ability to engage audiences and has to be immediately shared onwards which can increase the reach of the campaign and message multifold.
The documentary may include an interview with the CEO on his vision and mission, brief introductions of key management personnel, tour of the factory or facility, CSR and SDG initiatives, and any other areas highlighting the company’s worth and profile. The documentary will then be pushed online to the relevant audience, to gain traction and boost the company’s offering. The proposal mentioned is linked to one of our media partner Vcast, but companies may choose to engage with a different partner offering similar services, according to individual requirements.
‘In the new digital age, PSX ensures its listing contenders get the projection they deserve to lay the foundation of a successful IPO’
Pakistan Stock Exchange has partnered up with stakeholders to provide value added services for the listed companies on PSX. Training, awareness sessions and webinars among others are being offered to benefit various aspects of your businesses.
