Marek Niedzwiedz has over 20 years of experience building, scaling, and transforming businesses across multiple industries. After successfully exiting three companies, he shifted his focus to acquiring and revitalizing struggling or distressed businesses. Through aeXea Capital, Marek drives turnarounds that create value and position companies for successful exits. As the host of the Business Turnaround podcast, he shares actionable insights on scaling businesses and driving sustainable growth. Marek’s current focus is on The Last Industry – a groundbreaking thesis on the collapse of traditional business models and the rise of stakeholder-led value creation. Through this work, he explores how capital, sustainability, and governance are converging to redefine what makes a company valuable in the 21st century. His thinking informs strategic decisions for business leaders, investors, and policymakers navigating a world where growth alone is no longer the benchmark of success. Beyond business, Marek’s background as a former professional footballer (or soccer, if you like ;) and military professional instilled the discipline, resilience, and teamwork that drive his success.
