Jongleurs

Jongleurs Comedy Ltd was established in 1983 when Maria Kempinska opened her first comedy club in Battersea. After selling the UK franchise Maria still owns the company along with fellow founding manager John Davy. Even now she personally selects every comedian who takes the stage to ensure the level of quality is maintained. John is Chairman, overseeing the commercial development of the brand, including assisting the UK franchise holder, Regent Inns plc, on marketing in the UK clubs.

The company now provides a wide variety of events, content, marketing and business solutions for consumers and corporate clients. The key to the success of Jongleurs is due in many ways to the 'creativity plus business team' Maria and John represent.

These edited highlights of the full video case study (which accompanies our text case study) show this invaluable dynamic at work: a combination of Maria's input as an innovative creative and John's business acumen and appreciation for the importance of a scalable business model.
