Kellen Europe, an association management firm based in Brussels, has launched a new podcast series titled “Associations Unplugged”.
This series aims to provide a deep dive into the association industry, featuring unfiltered conversations with industry professionals, thought leaders, and experts.
Hosted by Paul Walsh, the podcast explores the challenges and strategies driving association success.
The launch aligns with the upcoming European elections, highlighting the timely relevance of collaborative efforts in shaping future legislation and advocating for sector interests.
”We noticed a podcast was missing in Europe focusing on the world of associations. As a leading association management company, we believe it’s our role to mark the importance of companies collaborating to influence future legislation, share knowledge, and collectively advocate for their sector. We currently see momentum, especially now with the European elections only a few months away”, stated Maria Teresa Scardigli, Managing Director at Kellen Europe.
The first episode features insights from Wouter Vermeulen of The Coca-Cola Company and Paul Voss of European Aluminium, focusing on leadership paths and lessons learned.
The second episode, with Jori Ringman of CEPI, discusses balancing industry sustainability with authenticity.
The podcast is available on all major platforms including Spotify, YouTube, and Google Podcasts. You can listen to it here and watch it here.
