Vahan Yepremyan

Vahan Yepremyan, co-founder and COO of Ketchup Entertainment, runs the show out in Los Angeles—right in the thick of the movie scene. He’s not just some guy behind a desk, either. As one of the Executive Producers of “Lost Christmas,” he and his crew actually snagged an International Emmy Award. Not too shabby, right? On top of that, the film racked up nominations from BAFTA and the Broadcast Awards. The guy’s got a knack for picking winners. Fast-forward a bit to 2013, and Ketchup drops “Linsanity,” which, if you remember the hype around Jeremy Lin, totally blew up. That film landed them the TV Guide Award for Best Family Film, so clearly they know how to make stuff people actually want to watch—none of that artsy nonsense that just collects dust. Vahan’s the one keeping the wheels turning at Ketchup. He’s got his hands in every part of the process, juggling projects at all stages—some are just getting started, others are making the rounds in theaters or streaming. It's honestly kind of wild how many things he’s got on his plate, but the guy just keeps hustling. You can bet if Ketchup’s name is on a movie, Vahan’s had something to do with making it happen, from the first script meeting to the moment it hits your screen. He’s the real deal, always scouting the next big project and making sure Ketchup stays in the game.
