LOS ANGELES — Sweet Release, an adult industry marketing and publicity agency, has signed on as the presenting sponsor of the 2020 Australian Adult Entertainment Business Industry Awards, known more colloquially as X Awards Australia.

Attendees of the ceremony, notably, have the opportunity to promote themselves and their businesses via a video-recorded media wall with mainstream and adult industry media in attendance.
