As the capital of the region, Wroclaw operates like a well-oiled economic machine. Never before have there been so many initiatives, companies, direct investments, startups, investment projects in Wroclaw, in the Wroclaw Agglomeration. We want to build together with local governments, with the world of science, with NGOs a strong capital and a strong province. That's why here in Karpacz we will also ask about KPO money or talk about the lost finances of local governments

Dynamic digitalization is changing the world and people. It enables rapid development of technology and improves communication. Therefore, the ICT industry is now a driving force for the economy. It affects not only all business sectors, but also the future of cities. The Wroclaw agglomeration is a place where it is developing exceptionally fast, so we have something to talk about
