ASK Events was created in 2018 by Philippe Javelle and business partner Hoeung Rotha (a.k.a. Brave). Specialists in event creation and management, talent booking and sound engineering, they have multiple references in Cambodia, managing entertainment programs and events for companies and corporate organisations such as: prestigious Accor Hotels, Rosewood Hotel, Pernod Ricard, HGB, Royal Group, HKBAC, various embassies and Chambers of Commerce. They also created significant public events such as the International Jazz Day Festival.
ASK Events is a sustainable event label monitored that the SEA (Sustainable Event Alliance), the only one in Cambodia. It permanently works on suppressing sound nuisance, minimising carbon footprint by improving logistics, increasing reuse of event equipment, implementing no-single-plastic use on events, giving priority to local suppliers and promoting local talents.
AASAP stands for Advice & Assistance in Sustainable Achievement & Practices. Following Philippe Javelle's experience as a certified Green Growth 2050 Platinum Sustainability Manager, AASAP has been set up to assist small and medium Hospitality businesses in Cambodia to implement circular economy and environmental transition, as well as to get sustainability certifications such as ASEAN Green Hotel, Green Growth or Green Globe.

Sustainable tourism being a priority in Cambodia, those businesses need concrete assistance to comply with the UNDP agenda and face the challenge of environmental transition. Many experts provide conferences and webinars but AASAP really "digs the dirt" to provide fast solutions at an acceptable cost in the fields of energy and water saving, waste management, environmental awareness and stewardship, corporate social responsibility and carbon footprint reduction.
The constant evolution of Cambodia and its astounding growth within a decade, associated with ASK Events's local experience, revealed the need of improving skills and working methods in the field of entertainment and event management, more precisely regarding specific techniques such as stage presence and sound engineering.
​
As a sustainable division of ASK Events, Sound Sound brings training and knowledge in two mandatory disciplines: stage presence (performers, emcees, top executive and corporate public speakers) and sound engineering. A unique coaching entity, Sound Sound provides courses and master classes in sound design (for both studio production and live events), vocal technique and stage attitude (for speakers, emcees and singers). It also assists artistic and event creators in improving their working methods and impact with organisational tools and production expertise.
