'M' Mark Status and Support Packages Scheme

The 'M' Mark Status and Support Packages Scheme was launched in November 2004 by the Major Sports Events Committee of the Sports Commission. The main aim of the scheme is to help the NSAs develop more sustainable major international events and to obtain greater support for them from the commercial sector and the community. In addition to logistic support from the Government, some 'M' Mark events also receive funds from the Arts and Sports Development Fund. In 2006, six events — the Hong Kong Marathon 2006, the Hong Kong Sevens 2006, the Hong Kong Open Badminton Championships 2006, the Hong Kong Squash Open 2006, the Hong Kong Beach Festival 2006 and the Hong Kong Open Championship 2006 were given 'M' Mark status and support packages.
