“Over the last decade Hyde Park has created entertainment and cultural relationships between India/Asia and the West,” Amritraj said. “As the region from the Middle East to China experiences amazing growth, we look forward to continuing our expansion in the region through our AWE partnership.”  

Imagenation chairman Mohamed Al Mubarak said: “Building relationships between the Middle East, Hollywood and China has been a priority for us and we look forward to the Hyde Park ImageNation partnership with AWE.”

“For AWE, the collaboration is a significant step forward to facilitate its expansion in overseas market while consolidating the growth of domestic businesses,” Ji added.
