An important milestone for German-Polish economic relations: Last week, the Polish Club Biznesu (PKB) was officially founded at the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Berlin.
We are very proud to be a founding member of this valuable initiative. With more than 250 representatives from business, politics, administration and diplomacy, the kick-off event impressively demonstrated how great the need is for a strong platform for networking and representing the interests of Polish companies in Germany.
The partners Dr. Dominik Wagner, LL.M., EMBA. and Tomasz Baron, LL.M. Baron from our Poland competence team were on site for TIGGES. For many years, TIGGES has been assisting German companies with their market entry and business activities in Poland and Polish companies with their expansion into Germany. In doing so, we experience on a daily basis what also became clear during the event: Polish companies are increasingly appearing on the German market as investors, employers and strategic partners. They are setting up branches, carrying out M&A transactions and actively shaping economic development on both sides of the border.
This development requires strong networks, trusting cooperation and a common voice. The Polish Club Biznesu has the potential to take on precisely this role and represent the interests of the Polish economy in Germany visibly and effectively.
We were particularly pleased with the broad support from politics and diplomacy, including from Ambassador Jan Tombiński and the Polish Minister of Finance and Economy Andrzej Domański, CFA.
We would like to congratulate the newly elected board of Radoslaw T. Krochta, Marcin Król and Agnieszka Ozubko and thank everyone involved for getting this initiative off the ground.
We look forward to actively shaping the further development of the PKB and further strengthening the German-Polish economic area together.
