October, 2010 Welcome to the 5th edition of City Invest Poland – a guide to direct investment in Poland, and a navigation tool for key contacts and critical data for 30 of Poland’s major cities and 16 regions (voivodships). This year, we have substantially improved the content, by adding lists of major investment projects in the cities and regions, major events during the next year, and a complete list of BPO/Outsourcing firms. The guide provides a standardized format for finding governmental contacts across Poland – in cities and voivodships – as well as regional demographics, employment data and trends. We’ve also included lists of: largest foreign investors, sorted by region largest local businesses, sorted by region 14 Special Economic Zones – and major investors active in those taxadvantaged zones Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) centres in Poland The full contents of City Invest Poland are accessible on-line on our English website www.BizPoland.pl – making the distribution of the information available world-wide at your fingertips. We hope City Invest Poland will be a useful tool for foreign direct investors seeking contacts throughout Poland and conducting preliminary research of where to locate or expand your business.
