On September 18, during the Gala of the Follow The Leaders conference, Tricity was recognized as the Best Location for the Business Services Sector (BSS) in the PRO Tiger competition. This recognition is the result of strategic decisions made by the Pomerania Development Agency (Agencja Rozwoju Pomorza S.A.), which coordinates the Invest in Pomerania initiative responsible for attracting foreign direct investment (FDI).
Once again, Pomerania has received this award, confirming the region’s continued strong position on the investment map despite dynamic changes driven by new technologies and the geopolitical situation. The strength of Pomerania is also reflected in the large number of awarded and distinguished companies with branches in Tricity, including Foundever, Armatis, Transcom, Randstad, Grupa Progres, and Antal.
– This recognition confirms that Pomerania is consistently building its position as one of the key hubs for modern business services in Central Europe. We have a stable, predictable ecosystem that supports investors at every stage of their growth – said Marcin Skwierawski, Deputy Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship.
The award also highlights the achievements of the Pomerania Development Agency team and Invest in Pomerania Partners over the past year. Together, they facilitated 7 new investments and 6 reinvestments, resulting in approximately 1,500 new jobs in Pomerania. The BSS sector in Poland employs nearly half a million specialists and generates 5.7% of the country’s GDP.
The award was received by: Marcin Skwierawski, Deputy Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship; Piotr Ciechowicz, Vice-President of the Pomerania Development Agency; Wojciech Tyborowski, Director of Invest in Pomerania; and Marcin Grzegory, Deputy Director of Invest in Pomerania.
– Behind this recognition stand people – their skills, determination, and readiness to act. Invest in Pomerania is now a strong brand that attracts investors and creates new development opportunities for the region – emphasized Piotr Ciechowicz, Vice-President of the Pomerania Development Agency S.A.
The two-day Follow The Leaders conference, organized by Pro Progressio in Tricity, included two thematic conferences, workshops for Team Leaders, exclusive meetings for top executives, and the Gala with the PRO Tiger competition finale. The event brought together nearly 600 participants from around the world, who had the opportunity to explore how Pomerania is shaping the future of business.
