Tom Mehrmann, ICAE
Owner and Founder
Themed Advisors, Ltd


Tom Mehrmann is the Founder and CEO of Themed Advisors Limited, a Hong Kong based company providing advisory services to themed attractions for development and operation. Mr. Mehrmann started his career in the theme park industry in 1977 at Knott’s Berry Farm in the United States as a sweeper, cleaning the Park grounds. From there, he spent the next 21 years progressively working through various management and leadership roles, eventually becoming Vice President of Park Operations and Entertainment in 1996. In 1998, he joined Six Flags Marine World as Vice President and General Manager, and later accepted an appointment as VP and GM of Warner Brothers Movie World in Madrid, Spain, when the park design and management was taken over by Six Flags in 2000. He was responsible for the design, development, construction and operation of Madrid Movie World, which opened in April 2002. In February 2004, he joined Ocean Park as the Chief Executive, and has directed the activities of the Park to achieve eleven record-breaking years of attendance or revenue and surplus, while leading the effort of defining the HK$5.55 billion Master Redevelopment Plan (MRP) for the future Ocean Park. The 6-year MRP broke ground in late 2006 and was completed in July 2012 on time, on budget and with exceptional quality. Not only did the MRP successfully transform Hong Kong’s People’s Park into a leading world-class family travel destination, it also enabled Ocean Park to achieve new heights in annual attendance.
