El Padre event agency
For almost 20 years we have been creating experiences – congresses, meetings, galas, integrations, brand zones and out-of-the-box activities – the event industry has no secrets from us. Combining creativity, courage and professionalism, we realise unforgettable events tailored to our clients’ needs. The impressions we provide are widely recognised, as evidenced by the title of the most frequently recommended event agency (according to Millward Brown for “Media i Marketing Polska”), agency of the year and numerous awards, including MP Power, Golden Arrow and Kreatura. Thanks to their active participation in the professional environment and their work for the quality of the entire MICE area, El Padre’s board members have also been awarded the title of MICE Industry Man of the Year several times ( Człowieka Roku Branży MICE).
WOJCIECH CŁAPIŃSKI
Vice-President of the Management BoardA madman in retirement because, he claims, he has already gone wild. "Write that I like sitting on the allotment and mowing the grass or chopping wood," he says.

PIOTR KARASIŃSKI
Vice-President of the Management Board / Realization DirectorTo his friends "Karaś". He likes water, especially when he can sail or motorboat on it. If he could, he would ride a motorbike on it, but he can't, so he rides it on a paved surface. When he doesn't have petrol, he takes to reading books, preferably ones that will reveal to him the mysteries of the Second World War. Besides, he can be assertive, which is good news for the clients to whom Karas organizes events.
JAKUB ĆWIKLIŃSKI
Vice-President of the Management Board / Event DirectorA great lover of sailing in the Mazury region. This is the only place where Jakub really relaxes.
