Evelyne Villame
Evelyn led the marketing strategy, brand and product development for the Grévin Group, now Companie des Alpesfor over 20 years. In 2009, she plunged into the “small is beautiful” business and started an FEC company La Boîte aux Enfants, with fellow partner Gaëtan Le Jariel. La Boite aux Enfants is now a chain of 13 family entertainment centres in France, six of them (brand Gulli Parc) developed in partnership with the leading French kids TV channel.
“The Park World Excellence Awards are dynamic and I provide a real stimulus for innovation within the industry. Innovation is not only technical; it might be a show, an alliance, something creative that adds to the experience”
Vincent Philippe
Funfaircity is a consulting micro business specialised in urban leisure places. Based on observation and blogging work that started over three years ago, it provides city professionals with knowledge of what leisure venues can bring to urban projects and territories. It also shows leisure professionals what they can gain from developing in the city.
“This award is an opportunity to salute the professionals in the sector and to celebrate their resilience. It is also a way of working collectively towards “doing better” by showcasing exceptional projects or places that can inspire operators.”
Julian Tschech
Julian’s fascination for water attractions began as a small child. He and his brother created the YouTube channel TUBERIDES and a website about water slides (https://www.tuberides.de) back in 2009 and what started as a “fun project”, soon began to grow as TUBERIDES became a worldwide pioneer in filming water slides.
Their videos have been watched more than one billion times and more than one million people have subscribed to their channel.
“The awards are well-recognised among the industry and I’m happy to take part in this event. Having visited hundreds of water parks and experienced thousands of water attractions all across the globe, I’m proud to use my knowledge and experiences to make sure that the rightful winners will get the recognition they deserve.
Designed to recognise outstanding operators in the EMEA region together with the manufacturers, suppliers and entertainment specialists that worked with them to bring the year’s top experiences to life, the Park World Excellence Awards 2021 will close for entries and nomination on 18 July.
