This year, the Scandinavian-Polish Chamber of Commerce celebrates its 20th anniversary.
Our anniversary coincides with Poland’s 20th anniversary of membership in the European Union.
These two past decades have been exceptional for the Polish economy, and Scandinavian companies’ contribution to this success is significant.
This is a moment to acknowledge and appreciate the entities that have played an essential role in building strong economic ties between our countries and contributing to the development of the Polish market.
