Also known as Ron, Mr. Tan Aik Ti is not just an investment expert; he knows the ins and outs of the entertainment industry in the Far East and beyond.

Mr Tan has a wealth of experience in entertainment, having served as Executive Director for companies such as Hi-5 Operations Pte Ltd, and EMS Holdings Pte Ltd. Hi-5 is a global pre-school entertainment group and EMS Holdings is one of the world’s largest themed-exhibition intellectual properties producers.

On top of that, Mr Tan headed several investment holding companies. He is the International Director in First Alverstone Partners and was a former Board Member of SGX-listed Friven & Co. He is also an Independent Director at SGX-listed EpiCentre Holdings.

Since 2008, Mr. Tan has been the Managing Director of Friven Asia Productions Pte. Ltd. (formerly, SHEARES Asia Production Pte. Ltd.). He even served in various distinguished positions at Media Corporation of Singapore, LexisNexis Asia Pacific, and Singapore Tourism Board/Economic Development Board of Singapore.

Mr. Tan was awarded the prestigious Singapore Government Scholarship to pursue his Bachelor’s degree in Tourism from the University of Hawaii at Manoa in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Since 2014, Mr Tan is the CEO of Victory Hills Exhibitions Pte Ltd (VHE), a business which combines intellectual properties and in-house creative talents to produce world-class museum and entertainment content using the latest technological capabilities, visual appeals, and educational contents.

He is responsible for overseeing, monitoring, and managing the overall operations, business and finance of Victory Hills.

In November 2015, Cityneon Holdings Limited acquired Victory Hills and appointed Mr Tan as Executive Director. Under his leadership, VHE secured exclusive rights to use the TRANSFORMERS brand in exhibitions from HASBRO, Inc.
