Michał Kwinta is expanding his role at Mindspace, taking on responsibility for Romania in addition to his existing management of the company's Polish operations. The appointment broadens Mindspace's regional structure in Central and Eastern Europe across two office markets at different stages of development in the flexible workspace sector.


Kwinta has been with Mindspace since 2017, having led the brand's entry into Poland and the launch of its first location, Mindspace Koszyki in Warsaw. Under his management, the company subsequently opened Mindspace Skyliner in 2023, with a further location scheduled to open at Skyliner II in mid-2027. Beyond his country responsibilities, he also oversees global strategic projects and new business development. Before joining Mindspace, he spent 12 years in the travel and hospitality sectors, including roles at LOT Polish Airlines, Fly Away Travel and Louvre Hotels Group.

The two markets present differing levels of flex-sector maturity. In Poland, flexible office space accounts for more than 3% of modern office stock in major cities, with Warsaw representing the most developed market for the segment. In Bucharest, flex space accounted for 2.3% of modern office stock in 2025, with more than 50 locations operated by nearly 30 providers, pointing to growth potential. Both cities are also experiencing constrained new office supply: no new office space was delivered in Bucharest in the first quarter of 2026, with vacancy rates in central locations at around 3.4–5.0%, while Warsaw faces similarly limited availability in prime areas.

"Poland and Romania make for a very compelling combination," said Michał Kwinta, General Manager CEE at Mindspace. "Warsaw is already a market where flex has become a full-fledged part of the office sector, while Bucharest is at an earlier stage of this process and has significant potential for further growth. The experience we have gained in Poland is extremely valuable to us, but every market requires an individual approach."

"Michał has known Mindspace for many years and has played a key role in building our business in Poland," said Dan Zakai, co-founder and CEO of Mindspace. "Entrusting him with the Romanian market is a natural next step in his development and a key part of strengthening our operations in Central and Eastern Europe. In both cities we see growing demand for quality, flexibility, and solutions that respond to the changing way people work."
