Franklin Templeton to open BPO center in Poznan

"The company will rent 6,650 sqm in the Poznan Financial Center Andersia in Stary Browar," said a person close to the project. This means that the firm will employ roughly 600-700 people, with the center potentially taking on as many as 1,000 employees in the future. It is rumored that Templeton will receive a governmental subsidy totaling more than the firm expected to receive. The investment is a signal for the American market that Poland and Poznan are good locations for conducting business. "Representatives of the company stressed many times that we will benefit more than they will," joked one of the participants of the transaction. (Puls Biznesu, p. 7) M.M.
