British Polish Chamber of Commerce

Last month, Poland’s inward investment agency PAIiIZ published a report Foreign Business Has Taken Root in Poland. The report presents the results of an investment climate survey carried out in collaboration with Grant Thornton and HSBC Bank Polska. This was the basis for a meeting at which BPCC members and their guests discussed the factors that make foreign investors decide where to invest their capital. The discussion looked at Poland and the UK, and in Poland, specifically at Upper Silesia.
