CinemaNext mourns the loss of Steve Wiener It is with profound sadness that we at CinemaNext learn of the passing of Steve Wiener, the visionary founder of Cineworld Cinemas Ltd. Steve's remarkable 44-year journey in the cinema business, from his humble beginnings as an usher to building one of the UK's leading exhibition chains, has been an inspiration to all of us in the industry. Steve was known for his incredible attention to detail and personal relationships—he knew every supplier by name and treated them as partners rather than just vendors. His innovative approach to cinema exhibition and his unwavering commitment to enhancing the moviegoing experience shaped the industry as we know it today. His legacy of dedication, integrity, and business acumen will continue to inspire generations of cinema professionals. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of working with this extraordinary leader. The cinema world has lost a true pioneer. Rest in peace, Steve. 🕊️ #SteveWiener #Cineworld #CinemaLegend https://lnkd.in/e9qD7FpB
