Bruno Pani 

 Working in the music industry producing sound for live shows, before rising through the ranks of IMG, Proserve and City 7, Bruno Pani has always has the experience and intuition to make an event shine.  

When he launched Profirst in 1989 his goal was to reinvent the events sector to go beyond the idea of a function “running smoothly” towards the idea of a moment that is unforgettable, and which can integrate communications in a much broader sense. A new business model was born. 

Profirst is now one of the world’s leading creative event communication agencies. Under Bruno’s leading vision Profirst specialises in set design and production, a key player for nearly 30 years activation, strategy and private events. From an early close relationship with Giorgio Armani, Profirst have gone on to work with brands such as  Dom Pérignon, Tag Heuer, Zara and Inditex, Chanel, Ferrari, Givenchy and Dior. Pani enriches his job as an experience creator with multiple hats; that of a scenographer, a storyteller and a maker of dreams and memories.  

It naturally follows that in 2022, Pani’s latest endeavour was revealed: TheMerode – the most open private members club. In 2023, Profirst will bring a retrospective of the photographer Peter Lindbergh’s work to Brussels – a major cultural event for the city.
