EUROGRESS Aachen: Kristina Wulf succeeds Eugene Rinder

Since early November, Kristina Wulf hast taken over from CEO Eugene Rinder at the Eurogress Aachen, who led the convention centre for over 17 years. Wulf studied Applied Cultural Studies in Lüneburg with a major in music.

After her studies she worked as an employee of the concerts department in the newly built Lübeck Music and Congress Hall (MUK) and after only three months there, she became Head of Department. In order to be able to develop herself further professionally, she moved to Berlin after six years to a local radio station. There she was responsible for promotion, which included all marketing activities and the implementation of the radio station’s own events. After almost a year Kristina Wulf returned to Lübeck again and became director of event management, which also included the first time the congress business. As a member of the Management she was also responsible for a subsidiary of the MUK. As a PCO, she organized conventions and conferences all over Germany - a versatile and responsible task.
Even then, however, Kristina Wulf Even pursued the goal of running an events house and for that she felt it was imperative to also get to know the events business from the other side, meaning from a customer point of view. She became an event officer at the German Savings Banks and Giro Association in Berlin. The organization of the external events in Germany allowed her an extensive insight into the various events houses with all their strengths and weaknesses. It is precisely this experience, in terms of customer satisfaction, that is particularly helpful for her later work as the managing director of the Osnabrück-Halle and now as head of the Aachen Eurogress.
