FSTVS - The Executive Sessions - Denitsa Yordanova

Описание: “Sometimes the detours are where you learn the most and that are the most exciting parts of your life.”

A truer word was rarely spoken, especially when it comes to career journey's in the media industry.

And the journey of today's guest, Denitsa Yordanova, is nothing if not filled with exiting detours.

From studying for a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematical Economics and International Relations at Colgate University and then an MBA from Stanford Business School in the US, you might be fooled into thinking Denitsa was life in pure finance but after internships at Merril Lynch, Bloomberg, and then Cinepolis in Mexico, an opportunity at Guardian Media Group in London arose and Denitsa moved continents and industries!

After a stint at Endemol Shine, where she bridged the gap between commercial and creative, and another Master's Degree, this time in Media, Programming and Curating Film, Denitsa found a home at the British Film Institute as UK Global Screen Fund and International Funds.

Quite the journey and, as you will hear, quite the woman!

With my thanks as always to Denitsa for her time, Julian Scott for hosting and Janet Balmforth for making the whole thing possible and kicking me when I need it. And to you, for tuning in.
