A Seat at the Table

Speedmaster CEO Jason Kencevski spoke alongside senior executives from Genpact, IBM, Versace, Siemens, and other global organisations at the CEO Leadership, Innovation and Diversity Symposium in New York. The forum brings together corporate leaders from across the United States to discuss shared challenges, build relationships, and exchange strategies.

What Was Discussed

Kencevski addressed how Speedmaster has navigated change - from its founding in 1979 to its current position as a vertically integrated performance company with more than 500 employees across three continents. The session focused on the decisions and structural thinking that have shaped the company's evolution.

"It was a great opportunity to pass on the knowledge I've learnt from our journey to other fellow CEOs. I also took a lot away from the event, in turn I look forward to passing those strategies on to the rest of our team at Speedmaster." - Jason Kencevski, CEO

Why It Matters

Speedmaster operates differently from most companies in the performance aftermarket. The company designs, engineers, and manufactures over 25,000 parts in-house - a vertically integrated model that requires long-term thinking and deliberate leadership. Forums like this one provide a platform to share that perspective with leaders operating at similar scale across different industries.
