Meet business leaders from the UK and Poland, gain first-hand insights on trade opportunities and help your business grow in new markets: join the UK-Poland Business, Trade and Investment Forum 2018!


With a bilateral value of over £15 billion, trade between the UK and Poland is at an all-times peak. In December 2017, Polish and British Prime Ministers agreed to launch the UK-Poland Business, Trade and Investment Forum to further boost commercial links and provide a platform for Polish and British firms to connect, share experiences, and make business.

The new Forum is jointly organised by the British Embassy in Warsaw and the Polish Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology. It will be hosted by ministers from both countries, and top representatives from the business, trade, media and government sectors have already confirmed their participation. Together, they will discuss opportunities in the infrastructure, manufacturing, automotive and services industries.

Przy bilateralnej wartości ponad 15 miliardów funtów, handel pomiędzy Wielką Brytanią i Polską jest w najlepszym stanie w historii. W grudniu 2017 premierzy Polski i Wielkiej Brytanii zgodzili sie na otwarcie brytyjsko-polskiego Business, Trade and Investment Forum, aby jeszcze bardziej umacniać komercyjne połączenia i stworzyć platformę, na której polskie i brytyjskie firmy będą mogły nawiązać kontakt, wymieniać doświadczenia oraz robić interesy.

Nowe Forum organizują wspólnie Ambasada Brytyjska w Warszawie oraz polskie Ministerstwo Przedsiębiorczości i Technologii. Zostanie poprowadzone przez ministrów z obu państw, a obecność potwierdzili już czołowi reprezentanci z obszarów polityki, handlu i mediów. Razem omówią szanse w branżach infrastrukturalnej, produkcyjnej, motoryzacyjnej oraz usługowej.
