People and Process
Copenhagen Entertainment is led by an Executive Board consisting of senior industry experts. On a daily basis, the project is run by a Secretariate in close collaboration with the screen-based content industries within the Region.
Contact the Secretariate
Crucial to Copenhagen Entertainment is the Advisory Board, made up of CEOs of Danish film -, tv - and computer production companies, senior representatives from the financial sector and other experts. At the onset of Copenhagen Entertainment, the Advisory Board was called in in May 2009 to discuss the challenges and opportunities of the industries. The knowledge generated at this workshop forms the ground on which the Secretariate has based it's first set of initiatives.
Copenhagen Entertainment's analyses and conclusions come together in a dynamic process between Executive Board, Secretariate, Advisory Board and project partners.
The Secretariate has currently proposed six initiatives, all of which have been approved by the Board. You can read more about the initiatives on the left hand side.
In 2012, Copenhagen Entertainment publishes it's full set of strategic recommendations.
