ABOUT
Serial entrepreneur
Wojciech Szczepaniak is a serial entrepreneur with over 20 years’ of success in creating, owning and developing enterprises in a variety of market sectors and countries. He is based in Switzerland but frequently travels worldwide. He is constantly on the move either for business and charitable engagements, or to participate in his beloved sporting events.
BUSINESS
Unlocking personal, business, and financial potential
At the heart of Wojciech’s philosophy lies the need to forge strong personal bonds – with co-investors, potential new business partners and the teams of interested parties whose support is crucial to ensure a project’s success. For this reason, Wojciech places great importance on getting to know the people behind every deal, including their sources of inspiration, their past record and their future vision.
VISION
Making a difference
Wojciech’s business interests range from investing, individually or together with trusted business partners, in projects which he believes will not only create financial profit but will also help to make the world a better place. His choice of investments to date has included renewable energy and tree-plating projects. Wojciech runs clinics and hospitals providing diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation to those suffering from depression, addiction disorders or other medical problems.
SUCCESS
Current business
Wojciech is a chairman and founder of Sparrowland Capital, a specially-created vehicle to facilitate investments in trusted people and projects by providing mezzanine financing to those who are unable to find such financing elsewhere. Sparrowland was created to enable Wojciech to support projects that inspire his belief and vision, even if other investors might be reluctant to invest.
PASSION
Passion for success
Wojciech believes that the lessons we can learn from sports are entirely applicable to the rest of our lives. The drive to reach one’s full potential, combined with the inter-dependency and need for mutual support that come from working as part of a team, teach us something important both for business and for life in general.
