Paniq Escape Room, the escape room giant, is on the brink of an exciting new chapter as it prepares to open its doors in West Hollywood. This marks not just the expansion of a brand but the culmination of a journey that began in Hungary in 2012. The concept of escape rooms, gaining popularity, sparked an idea that would eventually make its way to the United States in 2014 with the opening of the first Paniq Room in Hollywood.
The path to success, however, was far from straightforward. Starting a business in the U.S. from Eastern Europe brought its own set of challenges. Raising capital and navigating the complexities of American bureaucracy proved to be formidable obstacles. Yet, Paniq Escape Room persisted, strategically growing and establishing itself as a prominent player in the escape room industry.
