​On Thursday 15 June 2023, Space Executive hosted an unforgettable client event that left a lasting impression on all attendees. With a sparkling wine reception, speech directly from our CEO, an exquisite venue, and a delightful selection of wines and canapés, the evening proved to be an outstanding success. As a leading Executive Search firm, we were thrilled to bring together a diverse group of c-level executive clients and candidates from various sectors, fostering meaningful connections and celebrating our company's achievements.

 

The exclusive event took place in the prestigious Napoleon Cellar at Berry Bros. & Rudd, setting the tone for an evening of sophistication and elegance. As our guests arrived at 6pm, they were greeted with Berry Bros. & Rudd Crémant de Limoux by Antech, Brut, Languedoc, a delightful sparkling wine that set the mood for the rest of the evening.

 

Space Executive CEO, Marek Danyluk, delivered a warm welcome speech to express gratitude to our guests for their ongoing support and to provide an update on our company's remarkable performance to date. Marek's words instilled confidence in the room, reinforcing the notion that Space Executive's growth and success are directly attributed to the invaluable backing of its clients and candidates.
