Special Crystal Wing Award for M. Gombitová

20.3.2024

On March 16, 2024, we participated not only as guests at the Crystal Wing awards (Krištáľové krídlo) for the year 2023 at the Slovak National Theater. We were part of Marika Gombitová's team, which won the Special Crystal Wing Award. The added value of Marika's participation at the gala evening was the Slovak and TV premiere of the new song Phantom of the Heart (Fantóm srdca) by the proven author tandem M. Gombitová – K. Peteraj. The prestigious lifetime achievement award is in the right hands – we are sure of that as a long-term partner of this exceptional singer and songwriter. Moreover, the success of our partners is also our success. Long-term managerial and consulting experience across many sectors is the basis of our specialized expertise in the field of Art Consulting as well. We work with Marika especially when setting artistic strategies or creating new business opportunities. Every year we are also involved in the Crystal Wing project – we are among the supporters of its legacy. The effort to spread the positive and inspiring results of the creative work of the most successful personalities, regardless of borders and field of activity, has been close to us for years. Wherever possible, we encourage the visibility of worthy examples to follow and pay tribute to admirable human achievements.

JENEWEIN GALLERY: Broken promise I GENTA FILM

15.3.2024

A few films also have their place in the Jenewein gallery. One of them is the full-length war drama Broken Promise – Nedodržaný sľub (SK I CZ I USA), the distribution of which we supported for its high quality and deep human message. The film by screenwriter Jan Novák and director Jiří Chlumský, based on the motifs of Martin Petrášek's book Broken Promise, was successfully released on cinema screens in 2009 by the production company GENTA FILM. At the time of its premiere, we watched the film reconstruction of the atypical but real-life story of Martin Friedmann-Petrášek, a Jewish boy from the town of Bánovce nad Bebravou, at a special screening in the premises of the Astorka Theater in Bratislava. The film won a number of awards at home and abroad, including nine nominations for the 2010 National Film Award Sun in the Net or awards at festivals in the USA, Portugal, Monaco, the Czech Republic, and Brazil. It also became a Slovak candidate for nomination for the most prestigious film award Oscar in the category Best Foreign Language Film for 2009. The connection with the successful film Broken Promise was part of the celebration of the 20th anniversary of Jenewein's presence on the Slovak and Czech markets, which we commemorated with various activities throughout the year 2010.

JENEWEIN GALLERY: Entry of Slovakia into the EU I F. Schiller & Ľ. Feldek & F. Guldan I Ode to Joy

27.2.2024

When Ľubomír Feldek translated the verses of Schiller's Ode to Joy into Slovak on the occasion of Slovakia's accession to the EU, we enthusiastically supported its book publication. The book, bound by hand and in leather, was published in a limited numbered edition of 100 copies, produced and designed by Viktor Vojtek. It was illustrated by Fero Guldan, and the foreword was written by the author of the translation, Ľubomír Feldek, who personally signed each copy. The book was printed by Tlačiarne BB Banská Bystrica and bound by Knihárska dielňa Lida Mlichová Žilina. The original version of the poem Ode to Joy became popular over time, but it achieved its greatest recognition when, together with the music of Ludwig van Beethoven, who used it in the finale of his Ninth Symphony, it informally became the anthem of the European Union. Informally because the Council of Europe in 1972 officially accepted only the melody of the Ode to Joy. In the universal language of music, it expresses the ideals of freedom, peace and solidarity common to all of Europe. The publication of the mentioned book with the 15th anniversary logo of our consulting group on Ex Libris brought us great joy. We consider the entry of the Slovak Republic into the EU to be one of the fundamental historical moments in the history of our country – 2024 is the year of its 20th anniversary. We experienced it very intensively as citizens and as entrepreneurs and consultants providing advice not only during our full membership in the EU, but also several years before during the preparations and accession process. Already in 1998, we founded the consulting and analytical institute EPPP – European Public Policy Partnership, and in 2004, when we became a full member of the community of European countries, we opened our EU office in Brussels.

JENEWEIN GALLERY: Right on time & Go west I M. Palonder

19.2.2024

The 60th birthday of the singer, musician, music composer and teacher Marcel Palonder prompted us to present another exhibit from the music collection in the Jenewein gallery collection. Our cooperation began with the production of the competition song Right on time/Kým nás máš (text by Jozef Urban, music by Juraj Burian), with which he ranked on the 18th place at the 1996 Eurovision Song Contes in Oslo, Norway. This is Slovakia's best placement so far at the prestigious international music TV festival in the world. The hit Right on time was released on a separate CD in Slovak, English and in dance versions. In addition, there is a bonus track on the Go west CD with a special booklet introducing the Jenewein Group portfolio and people. The Jenewein Group was the producer of the CD and in addition to Marcel Palonder, other well-known artists participated in its creation – Juraj Burian, Daniel Mikletič, Katka Korček, Jozef Urban, Milan Illík and Svetozár Ilavský with a face motif from a limited series of colored wooden sculptures created especially for Jenewein Group. Marcel Palonder was 32 years old at the time of his success at the Eurovision Song Contes. He already had a successful musical career as a singer and member of the Czechoslovak music group Mandragora. He studied piano, composition and conducting at the conservatory in Bratislava, and later studied opera singing in Monaco. Already at the age of ten he performed with his own compositions. Lately, he has been mainly engaged in composing stage and film music, solo performances and studio work. In February of this year, he celebrated the above-mentioned 60th birthday, and we hereby join the numerous line of congratulators and wish him good health and joy.

JENEWEIN GALLERY: Uni2010 & Start up! I J. Kováč

6.2.2024

With this exhibit from our Jenewein gallery, artistic value is not the main criterion. However, it is an important project that started many meaningful activities and successful careers. In 2006, the consulting group Jenewein Group became a professional partner of Uni2010 – an independent and non-profit organization with the original goal of inventing and testing the model of a modern university. Later, it developed various initiatives through which it wanted to help university students discover their own talents and support them in building a personal vision and finding employment on the labor market. Uni2010 was founded by Juraj Kováč, at that time a student at the Faculty of Economics of the Matej Bel University in Banská Bystrica. We gradually provided the background and professional advice to several interconnected initiatives – Professions 2010 – 2020, The best idea, Business Incubator, Business Academy or Modern University. This was followed by the project Start up! (Rozbehni sa!), within which a community of so-called start-uppers – creators was created on social networks. In addition to mutual support and help for all those who are "starting something, want to start it or are getting started", a series of interactive lectures by successful entrepreneurs took place all over Slovakia under the banner of BestGuest. Martin Krekáč, chairman of Jenewein Group, was one of the guests on April 14, 2011 at the University of Economics in Bratislava. The title of his lecture was: How strong is your will to prove something?. At the end of this guided tour, two interesting points: Entrepreneur Andrej Kiska, who became the President of the Slovak Republic three years later, gave a lecture in tandem with Martin Krekáč. And secondly: the Start up! project is active to this day, that means it has been inspiring and motivating for over 13 years!

Marika Gombitová sold out Prague's O2 arena twice

31.1.2024

Singer and composer Marika Gombitová, in cooperation with her proven team and Czech producer Tomáš Ságl (SAGL Production), filled Prague's O2 arena twice in the first month of 2024 (January 16 and 30). Czech and Slovak music critics, journalists and fans on social networks did not spare words of praise – in dozens of reviews, reports and statuses, words like "magnificent", "breathtaking" or "fantastic" appear all over the place... Marika "made Prague crazy" and on the narrative scene invited almost 30,000 spectators, moderator Štefan Skrúcaný and guests Ján Lehotský, Felix Slováček, WOW vocal, Richard Pachman, Xplosion and Kandráčovci to the auditorium for two concerts. However, she was the main star and confirmed that she is in vital form. In addition to the legendary hits, she rewarded her fans at the premiere with two new songs Fantóm srdca (Phantom of the Heart) and Stúpanie (Rising Up) by the proven author pair Marika Gombitová (music) and Kamil Peteraj (lyrics). Jenewein Group is more than a proud partner of both Prague concerts – we have a long-term partnership and cooperation with Marika. For this Prague project, we were part of the Slovak-Czech-Hungarian team, which is behind this huge success. Martin Krekáč as a donor, advisor and family friend of Marika is one of her closest collaborators. We are also very pleased with the important creative role. Filip Krekáč together with Martin Vierik created all artistic video projections placed on huge LED walls for both concerts. Marika Gombitová's concerts in the O2 arena were a challenging project that transformed our desires into an exciting action plan.
