János Baranyai

Managing Director, ECQ Dubai LLC

Dubai office · Head of office

János Baranyai has close to 20 years of entrepreneurial and leadership experience. He founded his first company at the age of 19 and spent a significant part of his career building and running businesses in the maintenance and construction sector in Hungary and Germany, gaining hands-on experience in organising and leading the work of several hundred employees.

In recent years his activity has increasingly turned towards the international business environment, the services sector and investments. His entrepreneurial experience and business network now span several regions: besides the United Arab Emirates and Europe, he has corporate experience or business relationships in Oman, Serbia, Turkey, China, Thailand and Italy.

As Managing Director of ECQ Dubai LLC he is responsible for the company's strategic direction, the development of its international relationships and the coordination of professionals and partners working across different countries and disciplines.

His leadership approach rests on the conviction that the complex questions of international business are never answered by a single person's knowledge. The right legal, tax, financial and business professionals must be organised into one system, connecting local expertise with an international network, so that the client receives a solution that genuinely works.
