Ewa Spohn

An alumni of the London Business School, Ewa is one of those rare people who really 'gets' design, business drivers and the idiosyncratic behaviour of customers. We first started working with her at the Design Council where the programme she headed up was to develop a stock market index based on companies' use of design. It has consistently out-performed the FTSE ever since! Ewa moved back to Krakow in 2005 where she remains our "number one Eastern European connection" – she knows everybody. In addition to helping us out, she is engaged in a variety of interesting projects from starting an organic cheese making factory to property development...phew!
