Entrepreneurship

Despite the fact that the Danish ecosystem for sound employs more than 52.000 employees and the Danish universities offer more than 60 longer-term educations within sound, the sector is not known in the wider community, nationally and internationally. With the increased competition for the best talents and the demand for continued innovation, it is crucial to create low and more coordinated promotion of the ecosystem, so that people in general - and talents in particular - get a better knowledge of the Danish sound ecosystem and the many opportunities for studies and jobs.

 

Why Advisory Board "Talent Attraction"?

A branding campaign of an entire sector is of course only possible with a joint effort. Danish Sound Cluster has therefore started a "Talent Attraction" project in 2023 with the aim of:

  • Increase the number of new students for the studies in sound/acoustics at the educational institutions.
  • Increase the number of new talents to vacant positions in the sound industry.

To define the activities, we have set up an Advisory Board consisting of selected industry members and external partners, who must help define and prioritize the joint efforts going forward.

The kickoff meeting on 22 June is thus the start of the work of the Advisory Board.

The target group

The Advisory Board is composed of key people from the audio industry through direct invitation. However, there are also open positions for those we may have overlooked: If you work with Employer Branding, talent attraction and recruitment - we would very much like to hear from you!
