Hey everyone! I am hosting another free talk at the London School of Economics for the Art Business Society. Sebastian Fahey, Managing Director of Global Fine Art at Sotheby's and LSE alumni, will discuss his career path and give an insight into working at one of the biggest auction houses in the world. The talk will take place on the 14th of March at 17:30 pm in the Marshall Building at the London School of Economics (MAR.2.08). This event is open to the public.

He also manages Sotheby’s operations in the Middle East and in early 2021, was charged with the role of Executive Lead for the newly established Sotheby’s NFT department, thanks to his avid interest in and passion for the subject. Prior to his current appointment, Sebastian has had a long and varied career at Sotheby’s spanning almost two decades. Originally based in London, he has worked across both sales and support functions in Sotheby’s offices around the world while based in London, New York, and Hong Kong.
