Mia Therese Wagner (born 25 December 1977) is a Danish businesswoman, lawyer and politician. Representing Venstre, she served as Minister for Digitalisation and Equality in the Frederiksen II Cabinet from November to December 2023.
She graduated as a lawyer from the University of Copenhagen in 2003 and subsequently became a lawyer and later a partner with her father in Wagner Advokater. From 2017 to 2020, she was CEO of the Freeway Group. The group is owned by Wagner's father Morten L. Wagner and brother Morten O. Wagner. The latter founded the online dating site dating.dk in 1998, which is still part of the Freeway Group today.
