Clifford Chance advises on Maoyan Entertainment's IPO, China's top movie-ticketing app
Leading international law firm Clifford Chance has advised Maoyan Entertainment (Maoyan) on its US$250 million initial public offering and listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Beijing-based Maoyan is the top movie-ticketing app in China, set to become the world's biggest market for movies.
China Co-Managing Partner Tim Wang led on the deal with partners Amy Lo and Fang Liu, and consultant Christine Xu. They were supported by a cross-border team consisting of senior associates Hao Wu and Queenie Tong, and associates Hongzhou Chen, Erxin Lu and Haoze Zheng.
Tim said, "We are honoured to be advising Maoyan on their IPO in Hong Kong. Our team is going from strength to strength as we deepen our relationships with innovative technology companies."
In recent months, Clifford Chance has acted on listings by innovative Chinese technology companies such as Weimob, iDreamsky, and Xiaomi Corporation.
