Marcin began his career while at university, when he founded a regional web hosting company, which was sold to home.pl. He then joined the ITI Group, the largest media group in CEE, as head of research and development and director of mobile services, where he coordinated major development projects to enable the group to benefit from the latest technologies. In 2007, he joined home.pl as CEO and later as a shareholder, leading the company to the No. 1 position in the web hosting and business apps categories in CEE, and subsequently selling it to Europe’s industry leader, IONOS.

Under his leadership, Shoper achieved the highest growth of any e-commerce platform in Central and Eastern Europe between 2021 and 2024. At the beginning of 2025, he and Shoper’s other major shareholders decided to sell Shoper to a holding company of technology companies, Cyber_folks, which valued the business at over PLN 1bn.

In recent years, he has also successfully invested in payment, logistics, cloud, and AI companies. Marcin is focused on building values-driven companies and believes that a great company culture is a fundamental enabler of any innovative enterprise.
