Katowicka SEZ expects investments worth PLN 1 billion

The Katowicka Special Economic Zone expects 25 new investments this year worth PLN 1 billion. The first two projects have already been approved, another three deals are about to be sealed. "Last year, 60 percent of the projects were carried out by small and medium sized companies. We may predict that this year will be similar," said Piotr Wojaczek, head of the SEZ. In 2015, the economic zone attracted investments worth PLN 1.07 billion, which created 968 jobs. The 2016 forecast sees a similar value of investments, which are expected to result in 1,500 new positions.
