Media Man, the media, publicity and portal development company, has embarked on a global media, new media / internet and branding campaign.

What's next for Media Man?

Greg Tingle said "We are delighted at the substantial progress our company has made over the past decade plus. Our current focus includes launching more themed website portals, both in Australia and abroad, ramping up professional poker and gaming related projects, and helping give back to society via our preferred worthy causes, which our commercial business arms allow us to. As of a fortnight ago we became the proud owner of a modest amount of shares in both Crown Limited and Virgin Blue, as both Crown and Virgin have been good to us over the years, and we're keen to see the investment make good returns which will help Media Man facilitate more social and community based projects. We think we are a good example of a company still being able to do well in an economic recession, and we hope our success may inspire others".
