Lena Ingwersen is the Managing Director of the Music Cities Network (MCN), Cultural Manager, DJ & was part of Keychange as Innovator in 2020/22. She is committed to creating sustainable change for a future-proofed music industry by enabling culture and music to flourish in various ways.
A future-proofed music industry needs to become more diverse, fairer and healthier. That is why Lena is committed to intensify borderless cultural exchange and business opportunities through her work at MCN- initiated by the cities of Aarhus, Hamburg, and Sydney in 2016 & the network spun off as an independent non-profit association in 2021 after five years under the umbrella and with the support of Hamburg Music. Current members are Aarhus, Aalborg, Bergen, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Gothenburg, Groningen, Manchester, Reykjavik, Valencia & Sydney. Projects run by the MCN are the European Music Business Task Force (EMBTF), the European Music Policy Exchange (EMPE) and the Link Up Euro Connection (LEC).
Having her main-base in Berlin, Lena is always aiming to enhance structures, frames and accessibility in and into the creative industries on a transnational level.
Happy to connect and tell you more about it all. :)
