Interviewer: Marc, thank you for taking the time to speak with us today. Can you tell us a little bit about your background and how you got started in the world of entrepreneurship?
Marc Schiwek: Thank you for having me. I was originally born in Germany and moved to Luxembourg later on. From a young age, I was always interested in the world of business and technology. I started my first company while still in college, and after completing my Bachelor of Arts degree with a focus on User-Experience-Design, I still hold on the role of managing director at my own digital agency.
Interviewer: That’s impressive. Can you tell us more about your agency and the services you offer?
Marc Schiwek: My agency provides custom User-Interface-Solutions with a big focus engaging and converting User-Experience and digital marketing for businesses, we have recently expanded our operations international to offer additional services by employing multiple very talented developers. This has helped us to address the developer shortages in the Luxembourgish market and has allowed us to continue to grow and thrive further.
In addition to running my own agency, I am also a chief marketing manager at another agency in Luxembourg. This agency focuses on trademark registration, an important service for businesses looking to protect their intellectual property.
Interviewer: Can you explain more about trademark registration and why it is important for businesses?
Marc Schiwek: Trademark registration is the process of registering a trademark with the government in order to protect a company’s brand and intellectual property. This is important because it ensures that other businesses cannot use the same or similar trademark without permission, and it also helps to prevent consumer confusion. By registering a trademark, a business can establish its brand and set itself apart from competitors.
Interviewer: In addition to your work in the business world, you and many young entrepreneurs are also known for your commitment to maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Can you tell us more about that?
Marc Schiwek: Yes, I believe it is important to have a balanced life and to make time for the things that are important to you outside of work, especially when managing two agencies hahaha. For me, this includes my interests in cooking and interior design. I love to cook, and I am a big fan of stylish and well-designed kitchens. I have also a big passion for animal welfare, since I own a dog myself, and I support local animal shelters whenever I can.
Interviewer: That’s great to hear. Is there anything else you would like to share with our readers?
Marc Schiwek: I am very grateful for the opportunities that I have been given, and I am committed to continuing to work hard and make a positive impact not only in the business world but also everyone’s world. I would like to encourage aspiring entrepreneurs to never give up on their dreams and to always strive for success.
