The largest socio-economic event in Poland is approaching
Members of the government, managers of international and Polish companies, local government officials and representatives of NGOS announced their participation in the Polish Power of Business Congress. This largest socio-economic event in Poland will take place on November 26 at PGE Narodowy. The organizers expect over two thousand guests.
This year’s Congress will be opened by, among others: Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense and Miłosz Motyka, Minister of Energy and Minister Tomasz Siemoniak.
Topics related to broadly understood security will be the focus of this year’s Congress. We have a war behind the fence and a hybrid war at home. The issue of resilience returns like a boomerang, both in the infrastructural, economic, digital and social dimensions – explains Artur Beck, the originator and organizer of the Congress.
An important event of this year’s conference will be a debate summarizing the socio-economic changes of the last 35 years, in which former prime ministers of the Polish government will take part.
A record-breaking edition with an extensive program
In this year’s edition, for the first time, the Congress will be held on seven thematic stages, covering the full spectrum of challenges and opportunities facing the economy today.
Paweł Jaroszek, member of the management board of ZUS, Agnieszka Szczygielska, director of the Central Institute for Labor Protection, National Research Institute, Paweł Dziekoński, vice-president of Fakro, and Antonio Carvelli, president of the management board of Gi Group, announced their participation in the debate on the transformation of the labor market and the presence of Generation X in it.
The program will include, among others: topics of European defense and security, cyber threats, artificial intelligence, deregulation of law for entrepreneurs, as well as foreign investments, energy transformation, mental well-being at work and responsible leadership. Participants will be able to choose from expert debates, 1:1 conversations, inspirational sessions and speeches by business practitioners.
Entrepreneurs about regulations
What is noteworthy is the great interest of Polish entrepreneurs. On November 26 at PGE Narodowy you can expect, among others: Henryk Orfinger, co-founder of Dr Irena Eris Cosmetics, Wojciech Wolny, president of the management board of EUVIC, Krzysztof Rdest, president of EMKA, Marcin Czyczerski, co-founder of GCG Partners, Marian Owerko, president of FoodWell, and Ewa Chodakowska, co-founder of BeBio. Representatives of an organization associating entrepreneurs also announced their participation in the congress: Joanna Makowiecka-Gatza, president of the management board of Employer of Poland, and Dr. Jacek Goliszewski, president of the Business Center Club.
– This year’s Congress enjoys record interest among participants, especially among Polish entrepreneurs and non-governmental organizations. We have over 50 events, debates, speeches and presentations planned on seven stages. You can still register for our event via the Congress website – reminds Artur Beck. – Discussions will focus on defense, stability of the legal environment, electricity prices and the labor market and health care – adds the event organizer.
New during this year’s congress will be three debates co-organized with Business & Science Poland, which supports Polish business in Brussels.
It is extremely important that Polish entrepreneurs are present when creating EU law, and not only during its implementation. Let’s be active already at the stage of work in committees and subcommittees, because it is there that the shape of future regulations is often decided, which often have a decisive impact on the development opportunities of enterprises.– explains Beck.
Non-governmental organizations in the spotlight
Every year, several dozen non-governmental organizations from all over Poland take part in the Congress, and the event will end with an award gala in the “DNA – because helping is in our genes” competition.
This initiative aims to highlight extraordinary social projects carried out by companies and non-governmental organizations.
Last year’s competition aimed to appreciate social organizations and enterprises most involved in helping residents of areas affected by the autumn flood in the south of the country. The winners were the Śnieżnik Massif Community Fund and the Colian company. This year, the jury will appreciate companies and organizations involved in supporting healthcare.
