Michał Kwinta is expanding his responsibilities at Mindspace. In addition to his current role managing the company’s operations in Poland, he will also lead the Romanian market. The appointment strengthens Mindspace’s regional structure in Central and Eastern Europe, covering two key CEE office markets that are at different stages of development in the flexible office space sector.
Michał Kwinta has been with Mindspace since 2017. He was responsible for bringing the brand to the Polish market and launching its first location, Mindspace Koszyki. In the following years, under his leadership, the company expanded its presence in Warsaw, opening Mindspace Skyliner in 2023. Another location is scheduled to open in mid-2027 at Skyliner II.
The expansion of his responsibilities to include Romania comes at a time when both markets are undergoing similar changes in the office sector, although the flex segment is at a different stage of maturity in each market.
In Poland, flexible office space already accounts for more than 3% of the total modern office stock in major cities. Warsaw is the country’s most developed market for this segment, where flex space has become an integral component of corporate real estate strategies, including those of large organizations seeking greater flexibility, the ability to scale their space, and a high standard of service.
In Bucharest, flexible workspace accounted for 2.3% of modern office stock in 2025. The market had more than 50 locations operated by nearly 30 providers, indicating both the growing importance of the segment and its potential for further expansion.
At the same time, both cities are experiencing limited new office supply. In the first quarter of 2026, no new office space was delivered in Bucharest, while vacancy rates in the most sought-after central locations fell to about 3.4-5.0%. Warsaw is also facing highly constrained new office supply in prime locations. In such conditions, flexibility, speed to occupancy, and the ability to adjust the amount of leased space to changing team needs play an increasing role.
“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. At the same time, we are observing similar expectations from business across both markets: greater flexibility, high-quality workspace, and the ability to quickly adapt office space to the needs of the organization. The experience we have gained in Poland is extremely valuable to us, but every market requires an individual approach.”
The expansion of Kwinta’s responsibilities corresponds to Mindspace’s continued growth in Central and Eastern Europe and strengthens the company’s regional focus to the flexible workspace market.
Dan Zakai, cofounder and CEO of Mindspace, commented: “Michał has known Mindspace for many years and has played a key role in building our business in Poland. He has an excellent understanding of both local customer needs and the global nature of our brand. 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. Warsaw and Bucharest are currently at different stages of flex market evolution, but in both cities we see growing demand for quality, flexibility, and solutions that respond to the changing way people work.”
Michał Kwinta, in addition to overseeing the company’s operations in Poland and Romania, is also responsible for global strategic projects and developing new business opportunities. Before joining Mindspace, he spent 12 years working in the travel and hospitality sectors, including at LOT Polish Airlines, Fly Away Travel and Louvre Hotels Group.
