Where Business Begins with Human Connection
In today’s fast-moving digital world, business relationships are often built through emails, video calls, social media, and artificial intelligence. While technology has transformed the way people communicate, it has not replaced the value of genuine human connection. Trust, meaningful conversations, and shared experiences remain the foundation of lasting partnerships.
Recognizing this shift, Viktory Agency created THE Circle, an invitation-only international business community designed for entrepreneurs, investors, executives, innovators, diplomats, creatives, and industry leaders who believe that successful business begins with authentic relationships.
More than a networking event, THE Circle represents a new philosophy of connecting people. Rather than focusing on exchanging business cards, it creates carefully curated environments where conversations happen naturally, collaborations develop organically, and long-term partnerships are built on mutual trust and shared values.
Bringing Global Leaders Together
The inaugural edition of THE Circle took place on 4 July at the historic Baur au Lac in Zurich, bringing together distinguished guests from Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy, Egypt, and other international markets. Participants represented industries including finance, venture capital, technology, hospitality, fashion, media, philanthropy, luxury, and entrepreneurship, creating a unique environment where business, innovation, and creativity intersected.
Unlike traditional networking events, every detail was intentionally designed to encourage genuine interaction. The evening combined Luxury Speed Networking, an elegant Flying Dinner, live music, keynote presentations, and curated artistic experiences, allowing meaningful conversations to unfold in a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere.
Business Meets Creativity
Among the distinguished guests were Anna Stukkert, investor, journalist and international influencer; Anwar Elkamony, TEDx speaker and professional tennis player; Lidia Weber, founder and designer of the Austrian jewellery brand Oliver Weber Collection; and internationally exhibited contemporary artist Christine Loh.
Founded in Austria in 1991, Oliver Weber Collection has become internationally recognized for combining Austrian craftsmanship, Swarovski® crystals, and contemporary design under its philosophy of Accessible Luxury. Today, the brand is represented in more than 50 countries and continues to embrace innovation through AI-supported jewellery design.
Together with the artistic vision of Christine Loh, their presence reflected one of THE Circle’s defining principles: bringing together excellence in business, luxury, creativity, and culture within one international community.
From Photography to an International Business Platform
THE Circle is the latest chapter in the journey of Viktoria Kukhta, founder of Viktory Agency. Beginning her career as a professional photographer, she spent years working with entrepreneurs, executives, luxury brands, and international events, gaining a deep understanding of the power of human connection and personal branding.
That experience led to the creation of Viktory Agency, which evolved from a creative marketing agency into an international platform connecting entrepreneurs, investors, executives, brands, and opinion leaders across Europe. Today, through THE Circle, Viktory Agency has expanded beyond marketing and events to build a trusted international business community where meaningful relationships create new opportunities, partnerships, and long-term collaboration.
The Next Chapter
THE Circle is now entering a new phase of international expansion. On 10 September 2026, the community will gather in Lugano, Switzerland, for an exclusive networking evening featuring the legendary Bad Boys Blue, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, executives, creatives, and international guests in an atmosphere where networking becomes an unforgettable experience.
Shortly afterward, Viktory Agency will launch its Annual Membership Program across Switzerland, France, and Germany, creating a private international community for founders, executives, investors, innovators, and visionary leaders who value meaningful relationships over transactional networking.
The next stage in THE Circle’s evolution will also include the launch of an innovative digital platform designed to help members discover relevant business contacts, strengthen relationships between events, and create valuable introductions more efficiently. By combining technology with a human-first philosophy, the platform will complement in-person experiences while preserving the community’s core belief that genuine business success begins with trust.
The international calendar will continue on 28 September 2026 with Viktory Paris Vision during Paris Fashion Week at the prestigious Mairie du 16e arrondissement, bringing together leaders from fashion, diplomacy, entrepreneurship, investment, luxury, and the creative industries. Additional flagship events are already planned for Zurich and Monaco, while March 2027 will see another edition of Viktory Paris Vision, further strengthening THE Circle’s position among Europe’s leading premium business communities.
Looking Ahead
As business continues to evolve, THE Circle demonstrates that while technology can accelerate communication, it is authentic human connection that creates lasting value. By bringing together ambitious leaders in an atmosphere of trust, elegance, and shared purpose, Viktory Agency is shaping a new era of international business networking, one where relationships are not simply made but cultivated, and where every meaningful conversation has the potential to become the beginning of something extraordinary.
