Meet the Founder

Anna & Bart_126

Founder, Multi-Entrepreneur, Networking Champion, Community Builder

PBLINK was founded by Bart Kowalczyk in 2012, having experienced first-hand the power of an active, engaged, and inspired business community. Originally from Poland, but Scottish in spirit, Bart moved to the UK in 2006 – and knew how important connecting with other entrepreneurs would be. As a business owner, Bart knew that your network really could be your net worth.  Over time, he forged so many meaningful connections with similar professionals that creating PBLINK was simply the next natural step. More than a membership body, PBLINK is a testament to the power of community and the spirit of collaboration. Connect with Bart on LinkedIn
