Nettwerk Music Group is expanding its European activities with a new headquarters in Hamburg.
The Canadian label continues to build upon its global operations with locations in New York, London, Vancouver, Los Angeles, and Sydney.
Martin Schuhmacher has been responsible for the development of Nettwerk in Europe from Germany for over 15 years. Since April 1, 2023, he has been acting as managing director of the newly founded company Nettwerk Music Europe, leading a team of eight at locations in Hamburg and Hilversum.
"We are very excited to open our new European headquarters in Hamburg," said Terry McBride, founder and CEO of Nettwerk. "Hamburg is an important music location in Europe and has earned an excellent global reputation through initiatives such as the Reeperbahn Festival. We find the conditions ideal to intensify our European activities, enter new local partnerships and offer even better support to our artists in Europe. Martin Schuhmacher, together with his team, will expand cooperation with the local music community, sign local acts, inspire people, and further strengthen our presence in Europe."
Martin Schuhmacher, managing director Europe, said: "Our focus is on working with emerging independent artists to connect them with music fans around the world. This gives them the opportunity to make a living doing what they love: making music! We see ourselves as a flexible partner for a growing number of artists and their management who strive for independence. The company's establishment in Hamburg is a clear indication of our intention to expand further into Europe. Our new presence will enable us to better promote the careers of young talents from both Germany and other parts of Europe."
