Norway-based streaming music company WiMP has appointed a new CEO in the form of Andy Chen, who takes over from Espen Lauritzen, who has fulfilled the chief executive role at the company on an interim basis for the last year.
Chen was most recently CEO at the Danish media distribution company Preview Networks, and previously also worked at MTV.
Confirming his new role, Chen told reporters: “I’m extremely honoured and excited to join the team. There are a lot of momentum and disruptions in the streaming music space and I look forward to leverage WiMP’s strong team and unique position to compete against some of the biggest players in this sector”.
WiMP currently operates in five markets in Northern Europe.
