About Marek Danyluk, Managing Partner & CEO, Space Executive

Marek became a founding Partner of the London based recruitment firm Investigo at the age of 24, where he spent the first eight years of his career. Investigo was arguably the recruitment success story in the UK over that period, being accepted in the 'Times Virgin Fast Track List' of companies in 2007, 2008 and 2009. Having sold his share in the business, Marek then joined a global recruitment brand to grow their Asian businesses, initially setting up its Banking division in Hong Kong before relocating to Singapore to set up the office.  Marek sat on the Global Board of Directors, and the Singapore business contributed more than 60% of group profit during his tenure.

In 2015 Marek founded Space Executive, a multi-awarded company in the international search and selection business. Marek is also CEO of Space Ventures, a venture capital firm investing in early-stage innovative companies, which he launched to support his continued dedication to helping people and businesses grow and develop to their full potential.
