Our history
From the very first moments when Dr Gabriel Brösztl met Michael Ross in London, back in 1971, with an idea that would help his client grow across borders, Kreston had its clients’ needs and ambitions at its heart.
Over the years our network has grown culturally, collaboratively, technologically and geographically, until the present day – over 50 years on from those initial conversations – when we still hold close the values that have brought success for many over the decades.
Alongside other celebrations in 2021, it was a unique opportunity to reflect on our journey through history and acknowledge the people, events and milestones that have helped shape Kreston into the network we know today. This interactive timeline documents some of the key moments for the network, alongside significant historical events that have impacted the industry, with insightful contributions from a range of individual experiences and perspectives.
