Marketing & Platform Launch Intern

Salary Unpaid

maiaa is preparing for its public launch in Denmark. We are building a curated marketplace for design-led meeting and event spaces, and we believe that how a platform is introduced matters as much as what it offers.

As our Marketing & Platform Launch Intern, you will work closely with the founder to shape maiaa’s launch narrative and increase visibility across the ecosystem. This is a hands-on role where you will help turn strategy into clear messaging, strong outreach, and real-world momentum while learning how an early-stage marketplace is built.

What you will work on

Your work will sit at the intersection of marketing, storytelling, and early launch execution, including:

Launch messaging & positioning

Help refine how we describe maiaa, what we are, who it is for, and why it matters, across outreach, meetings, and public communication.

Founder-led LinkedIn support

Help shape themes, draft posts, and build a consistent narrative.

Press & ecosystem visibility

Build and manage a structured outreach list including press, communities, and partners. Support outreach drafts and coordinate follow-ups.

Partnership support

Help identify relevant partners such as communities, agencies, and design networks. Prepare short outreach messages and support relationship-building.

Launch plan support

Help structure a practical launch timeline with milestones and visibility initiatives.

Market & positioning research

Conduct competitor and category research and translate insights into sharper messaging.

Real-world exposure

Join selected venue visits and conversations. After meetings, we will have brief group reflection sessions on what we learned and how we can improve our story and approach.

What we are looking for

We are looking for a curious, thoughtful person who wants to learn marketing through real work, not just theory.

You will thrive here if you:

• take initiative and come with suggestions

• communicate clearly and enjoy shaping language

• are open to feedback and comfortable iterating

• can be professional in outreach and meetings

• bring a constructive attitude and genuine curiosity

You may be studying marketing, communication, business, innovation, design, or a related field. Prior internship experience is not required. The right mindset matters more than a perfect CV.

What we offer

• A founder-led environment supported by a small remote development and design team

• Close collaboration with the founder during a real launch phase

• Exposure to venue meetings, partnerships, and ecosystem outreach

• A learning-focused environment with guidance, feedback, and room to grow

• The opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a design-forward marketplace

• A respectful setup aligned with academic requirements

A written recommendation can be provided upon successful completion of the internship.

Practicalities

The internship is expected to run for 4–6 months and is full-time at 37 hours per week, designed to fit university internship requirements.

Location: Copenhagen. While some remote work is possible, this internship is built around regular in-person collaboration.

maiaa is a curated marketplace for design-led meeting and event spaces, helping companies and teams find venues with character for meaningful, in-person gatherings. We combine carefully selected spaces with a thoughtful booking flow to replace generic, transactional venue sourcing with a more human, design-driven experience. The problem we’re solving: Finding inspiring spaces for meetings and small events is still fragmented and inefficient. Companies often rely on a mix of spreadsheets, emails, and generic listing platforms that prioritize volume over quality. The result is wasted time, inconsistent experiences, and venues that don’t reflect the purpose or culture of the gathering. This affects: • companies that value design, brand, and experience • venue owners with distinctive spaces who lack the right distribution and tools Despite a clear demand for better spaces, the market remains operationally outdated and aesthetically undifferentiated. How we solve it: maiaa brings structure, curation, and clarity to the process. We: • curate a limited selection of character-rich venues rather than listing everything • focus on storytelling, aesthetics, and context — not just capacity and price • provide a request-based booking flow that respects how venues actually operate • integrate experiences and add-ons to make gatherings more intentional and complete The platform is being built to balance design sensibility, operational realism, and scalable technology — with a strong focus on usability for both guests and hosts. Why we started: maiaa grew out of firsthand experience. As a founder, operator, and boutique hospitality owner, I’ve spent years working with spaces, guests, and teams — and repeatedly experienced how broken and uninspiring venue sourcing can be, especially for gatherings that actually matter. The motivation behind maiaa is simple: to create a better alternative for people who care about where they meet, how they gather, and the experience they create together. This is not about building another marketplace — it’s about raising the standard for how physical spaces are discovered and used.
