During meetings, main objectives of Polish participation in Expo 2025 Osaka were presented and particular programs to be implemented during the World Exhibition were discussed, including economic, cultural, tourism, science and regional promotion programs.
As Deputy Commissioner General, Eliza Klonowska-Siwak will support Deputy Minister Grzegorz Piechowiak (Commissioner General of the Polish Section) in managing the Expo preparation process.
Poland was among first nine countries to sign this type of contract, along with Azerbaijan, Brazil, Czechia, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
Thus, Poland began the next phase of preparations for the World Exposition, which will take place in 2025 in Japan’s third largest city. Polish participation will become a great opportunity for a wide-scale promotion of the country, with particular emphasis on the development of trade and investment cooperation with Japan.
Poland can also boast 23 national parks, 120 landscape parks, and numerous monuments. The World Exhibition in Dubai was an excellent opportunity to promote the country as an appealing tourist destination that offers high-quality tourist infrastructure.
At Expo 2020 Dubai, Polish companies and start-ups offering solutions for the science and education sector and others presented applications, programs and tools that develop creativity and help to acquire new skills. They may soon become real export hits, also in the non-EU markets.
Poland is experiencing a swift development of road, rail, aviation, and maritime infrastructure. More and more companies and start-ups are eager to use new technologies and knowledge to shape our immediate environment. The Poland Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai delivered an overview of solutions, from smart lighting for industrial, commercial and office facilities to mobile robots and self-propelled trucks.
The event included discussion panels emphasizing the potential for cooperation between Poland and African and Arab countries.
The event was attended by representatives of state delegations and entrepreneurs from Poland, Africa and Middle Eastern countries. The Forum was a unique networking platform for establishing business contacts and relationships as well as presenting the achievements of Polish companies from promising industries.
Poland is strengthening its position in the automotive industry and increasing its development potential. This is evidenced by the fact that it is one of the leaders in lithium-ion battery production – in 2020 alone, the value of car battery exports totalled €4 billion.
The economic programme that is implementing in cooperation with various business support institutions is a key element of the Poland’s participation in the Expo. Promotion of Poland’s economy will focus especially on industries that have been defined to have the largest export potential for Asian markets and be of the highest priority in trade relations with Japan. These include the following sectors:
As the hosts of the ceremony mentioned, the Poland Pavilion was a favourite from the very beginning. According to the international jury of 17 people, it is “one of the most elegant and sophisticated pavilions, it is a work of art, it is a very mature and educational experience. It is not forcing things on you, there is not a lot of interactivities, but it is sincerely refined”. It captures the idea of mobility in a beautiful way, using the metaphor of birds in flight.
