Ex-Hong Kong Disneyland boss to take reins as CEO of Kai Tak Sports Park
Andrew Kam will take over from CEO John Sharkey, who is stepping down after a nearly 10-year stint
A former boss of Hong Kong Disneyland Resort will take the reins at the city’s Kai Tak Sports Park as CEO from April, with the landmark complex looking to the new head to “unlock the full potential” and “amplify its economic impact”.
The park said on Friday that Andrew Kam Min-ho would succeed its first CEO, John Sharkey, who was stepping down after a nearly 10-year stint that established the complex as “a premier destination for world-class sports, entertainment, culture and leisure experiences”.
It added: “With over 30 years of leadership experience in the entertainment, tourism, and consumer sectors across international, Chinese mainland, as well as local markets, Kam brings a wealth of industry insight and operational expertise.
“His deep knowledge of business strategy, tourism development and large-scale venue operations positions him to unlock the full potential of Kai Tak Sports Park and amplify its economic impact.”
The park’s board of directors said they were pleased to appoint Kam, while thanking Sharkey for leaving behind a legacy of 21 global awards, noting that he had overseen “the design, construction and operations of the entire precinct”.
