We are creating a space for the media community

The Gothenburg Media Hub is based in Sweden’s second largest city and here and in the surrounding area there are several independent production companies, many freelancers, a big journalism school, and a few media houses that have their offices on the West coast.

That is why we want to create a space for Gothenburg’s media community to get together, work, exchange ideas, build partnerships and help each other. We know how hard it is to find a community and a place to work as a freelancer. That is why our vision of a GOTHENBURG MEDIA HOUSE is so important to us.

This has been a long-standing project of ours – and we finally found partners who believe in it as much as we do. With the support of Publicistklubben (the journalists’ club) and Göteborgs Litteraturhus, we now took the first concrete step towards our goal of a space for the media community: a pop-up Gothenburg Media House at Litteraturhus (Heurlins plats 1)!

If you are a freelance journalist or work within media and culture, join us. It’s free and open to everyone who wants to be part of a community of like-minded creatives and professionals. This is a pilot phase, during which we will test and finetune the project.

Once a week, you will be able to sit, talk, and write together at Litteraturhus, with other journalists and media and culture professionals. All this is possible due to the engagement of Göteborgs Litteraturhus and Publicistklubben, with whom we share the vision of a common space that fosters networking, creativity, collaboration, and support among freelancers.

This is the first step of a very ambitious project, and we hope you’ll join us on the journey. Bring your lunch box and come meet other professionals, on selected days, from 9:00 to 13:00 on:

Events

We organise regular afterworks for people within the media community in the city and surrounding area. This is a also a way to foster commnunity. The concept is very simple: we find a venue, create a public event and invite people. Once we are there people hang out and mingle.

Sometimes we do more structured events where we have a panel discussion, like the last one in which we collaborated with Publicistklubben Väst.
