Changi Airport Group launches new initiative for growth

Changi Airport Group (CAG) has launched a strategic programme designed to enhance CAG’s partnership with airlines to drive Singapore Changi Airport’s growth.

Effective on 1 January 2010, the Changi Airport Growth Initiative (CAGi) will replace the Air Hub Development Fund (AHDF) programme expiring at the end of this year. The new initiative will support Changi Airport’s growth in the long term through an incentive programme.

Mr Lee Seow Hiang, Chief Executive Officer of Changi Airport Group, said, "The key thrust of CAGi is to increasingly shift towards promoting growth – for both Changi Airport, as well as our partners. We recognise that for Changi to succeed, we have to work together with our airlines and other stakeholders, as strategic partners, to grow the pie."

Incentives will be given to enhance Changi’s connectivity by starting routes to new destinations; helping new airlines start operations at Changi; rewarding passenger and cargo traffic growth; and supporting airline partners and ground handlers to enhance their product and service offerings at Changi.

"With CAGi, we will adopt a far more customised approach by using an effective and optimum mix of targeted and performance-based incentives. We believe that each of our airport partners faces different opportunities and challenges in a rapidly changing aviation environment. The one-size-fit-all approach is less effective and responsive to their needs. Our aim is therefore to work closely with each partner with differentiated measures to spur growth, support innovation and, ultimately, boost Changi Airport’s overall competitiveness," he added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
