New agency to promote Poland and replace PAIIZ

The successor of PAIIZ is to focus on promoting the economy, support export development, attract foreign investments and support Polish investments abroad. It will also be responsible for collecting information on domestic suppliers and co-operating companies for the needs of investment projects. "I support the idea to transform PAIIZ into a government agency. Part of its activities should definitely be financed from EU funds," said Mirosław Marek from the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development (PARP). (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 4) A.K.
