Rügenwalder Mühle

Rügenwalder Mühle summer festival

Project management

Im Auftrag der Sportplatz Gesellschaft für Eventmarketing GmbH übernahm ich im Sommer 2022 die Konzeption, Organisation und Durchführung eines Sommerfestes für die Mitarbeitenden der Firma Rügenwalder Mühle und ihre Familien. Für die Verantwortlichen bei Rügenwalder bedeutete dies eine Ansprechpartnerin für alle Themen und die Gewissheit, gehört und verstanden zu werden.

On the first weekend in July, after the long pandemic period, the aim was to finally celebrate together again and strengthen the team spirit between the many new and old employees. The management of Rügenwalder Mühle thanked the total of 1,200 visitors for their commitment with a party from the afternoon until late at night.

To create a cozy atmosphere, we used sun sails in different sizes instead of the old familiar pagodas and tents, giving the meadow around the Rügenwalder Mühle a summery look. In the evening, we hosted a big party with DJs under a customised 15 x 30m sail. During the day there were various activities for children, many different food stands and an entertaining stage program for young & old.

In a nutshell:

  • Event concept taking into account all requirements of the client
  • Budgeting and cost control
  • Coordination of the different trades & service providers before, during and after the event
  • Assembly and dismantling logistics
  • Conception of the stage and children's program
  • Regulatory approvals
  • Staff coordination
  • Event branding
  • Shuttleservice, parking and bicycle parking
  • Main contact person during the project for client, project team, service providers, staff and authorities
Our Summer Party 2022 was a fascinating event for all our guests, young and old. The concept Ina came up with, her competence and her passion for detail have contributed to the lasting effect of this event on our TEAM.

Bremen University of the Arts

Open Space Domshof

Project Management & Production

A temporary structure, art in public spaces, and a diverse music and cultural program: that was Open Space 2021 at Domshof Bremen.

Initiated by the Bremen Senator for Economic Affairs, Labor and Europe and in cooperation with the Bremen University of the Arts (HfK), 85 concerts, 13 art exhibitions by HfK Bremen and many other cultural and educational events were realized in and around the building on Domshof in the summer of 2021.

A modern three-storey building with extraordinary stairwell construction was the base for not only a large stage and a roof terrace, but also a gallery for students of HfK.

The stage program ranged from concerts of classical music by students of the HfK's Department of Music to choral and pop music, readings, DJ evenings, theater performances, fashion shows and five 'theme days' with different focuses. Various collaborations with Bremen's art and culture professionals ensured far-reaching visibility - even beyond the borders of Bremen.

It was not without reason that the project was awarded a Gold and Silver Nail at the renowned Art Directors Club (ADC) competition.

In a nutshell:

  • general project management: control of deadlines, team coordination, protocols, process organization and general office duties
  • Regulatory approvals
  • Safety and hygiene concept
  • Production management set-up and dismantling: time management and coordination of the various trades (scaffolding, lighting design, architects, university departments, event technology, Open Space project team, authorities, catering)
  • Budgeting and cost control
  • Grant applications and acquisition of additional funds
  • Arrangements with cooperation partners in the field of gastronomy, urban planning or other event formats in Bremen, acquisition of further cooperation partners
  • Human Resources & Service Management
  • Production management of the theme day town twinning TCC #1 – Twin City Challenge, a multi-day art and culture festival with Bremen's partner city Haifa/Israel, on behalf of the agency Sternkultur
  • preparatory accounting and settlement with the HfK
  • Main contact person during the project for project team, service providers, staff and authorities
  • Event management at various daytime and evening events
Working with Ina was collegial, intensive, professional, and always goal-oriented. The arrangements, coordination of the project, distribution of tasks as well as guidance of the employees went smoothly. Once discussed, and things took their course. Initiative, responsible handling, and the willingness to always add an extra boost of energy were impressive. Likeable, committed, in a good mood, and absolutely recommendable.
