Jennifer Chen

Jennifer believes great stories travel, across borders, cultures, and screens. As Head of Studios and Vice President of Content at Channel Zero, she leads the creation of globally appealing, commercially driven scripted series. From development to delivery, Jennifer champions international partnerships and content that connects audiences worldwide.

Before leading the Studios division, she was Vice President of Programming for Channel Zero’s broadcast networks: CHCH, Rewind, and Silver Screen Classics and General Manager of Ouat Media, the Academy Award–winning distributor of short-form content. Earlier in her career, she honed her craft in production, sales, and festival strategy with the Canadian Film Centre (CFC), the Cannes Film Festival, and the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

Jennifer holds an MBA from Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management and York University’s Schulich School of Business. She also serves on the Board of Directors for Women in Film & Television Toronto (WIFT+), supporting women and underrepresented voices in the screen industry.

As stories travel, so does Jennifer! She’s curious about the world and its cuisines, always in search of a great story, a memorable meal or a place that sparks inspiration.
