About

How it all began

It’s all about fun, or rather in search for fun.

When the bean counters of the networks turned the workplace into factories.
When people were fast becoming robots working in assembly lines.

It was 1998.

Ron Cheung, Derek Chung and Tommy Cheng, senior executives at Bates Advertising, gathered and started trying to make some sense out of their advertising careers.
Would it be possible to create space where people get fun out of work?  Ironically, their solution was to become bean counters themselves, so as to create a playground that they can own.

And Hotdog Workshop opened its door in Dec 2000.

What does Hotdog stand for?

When our clients win, we win.  Nothing excites us more than helping our clients to win the games they play.

We eliminate all the procedures that hinder us from playing.   When our people can play at work, their creative juices and enthusiasm keep flowing.   They look at things from fresh perspectives.  They are much more productive at work.  And we have a far better chance of winning.

While others want to squeeze every buck out of their customers by peddling games that they don’t play well under the banner of one roof, we focus on the games we play best and our clients pay for these only.
