POLISH INVESTFORUM 2010
Roadshow Polska along with the Polish Chamber of Commerce, President of the City Gdańsk and Gdańsk Economic Development Agency are inviting POLISH INVESTFORUM 2010 which will take place in 4-6 November 2010 in Gdańsk. Polish Investforum is the first cycle of conferences in Poland presenting investment opportunities in our country to foreign entities and introducing participants to possibilities and perspectives of the Polish economy development in the years to come. The opening of the Forum as a cyclical (annual) event took place on 3-4 June 2009. The main objective of the Forum is to promote the image of Poland and present its attractiveness as the location of foreign investment. The Forum also allows to promote individual regions of the country (towns, special economic zones, technology parks, development agencies etc.) and their investment offers as well as companies offering cooperation to investors. Not so long ago Poland was perceived from the angle of stereotypes. Foreign investors repeatedly placed Poland at the top of the list specifying potential locations for their investment, but in the end they decided to select another country. According to JP Morgan economic growth of Poland will amount to 3.5% in 2010 and will continue to be highest in the region. Poland proved that its economy and attractiveness in respect of investing are sufficiently well founded to minimize turbulence during crisis. Thus, it became the most attractive location for foreign investors in the region – this strong argument is a premise of the Polish InvestForum. Conferences provide the participants with information on current condition of the Polish economy and prospects of its development in the years to come against a background of the situation in markets worldwide. They learn what it is worth investing in, what the most profitable industries in Poland are, what chances and challenges the foreign investors face. We present them opportunities to use structural funds allotted to the development of infrastructure and knowledge how to use the donations well and effectively, which donations are one of numerous support instruments for entrepreneurs, as well as with increasing importance of Public-Private Partnership in financing investment projects. During Polish Investforum 2010 we will analyze the status of preparations for EURO 2012, development of the real estate market in Poland following global slowdown. Possibilities of the support for SME, investment financing will be presented. Also topics related to the prospects of BPO sector in Poland will be discussed - barriers for its development and opportunities to obtain investment in Knowledge Process Outsourcing as well as outsourcing of the state functions. For the first time we will talk about the issue of e-government and new technologies. We will also discuss alternative energy sources in Poland. We will review the investment opportunities offered by Polish regions as well. The 3- day program will include presentations, several panel discussions and workshops as well as events organized by the hosting city. By organizing the Polish Investforum we wish to show how the situation in financial markets worldwide will influence the development of Foreign Direct Investment in Poland as well as encourage investors to further develop already existing projects. We also aim at increasing the awareness as to the need for promoting Polish towns and regions and their significant potential. A very important aspect of our actions is to contact investors with potential partners in Poland. Polish Investforum is an excellent place to exchange valuable comments and opinions as well as an opportunity for business networking, which will lead to fruitful cooperation in the future. We believe that such undertakings are really needed, in particular considering current situation in the markets worldwide and that they will substantially contribute to the inflow of FDI to our country. We address the Forum to foreign companies interested in investing in Poland (or increasing the investment already made), representatives of the state sector, foreign cities taking part in the Forum, bilateral Chambers of Commerce and Industry, Polish cities and their foreign twin towns, representatives of Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency, Ministry of Economy, Entrepreneurship Congress, Association of Polish Cities, Organization Committee for Euro 2012, Special Economic Zones, Technology Parks, representatives of foreign and Polish companies operating in such sectors and industries as: trade, consultancy, law, development, real estate, HR, hotel, construction, transportation, power engineering, IT, telecommunication, representatives of financial institutions. www.roadshowpolska.pl Partners we cooperated with in relation to Polish Investforum 2009 include: http://www.roadshowpolska.pl/En/Kon/ForumInwest_01/Kn_05Media.htm http://www.roadshowpolska.pl/En/Kon/ForumInwest_01/Kn_07Patroni.htm Media coverage: http://www.roadshowpolska.pl/Pl/Prasa.htm , Gallery: http://www.roadshowpolska.pl/Pl/KonferencjePhotoInvestForum.htm.
