As many as 58 investment projects were carried out in the Katowicka Special Economic Zone in 2014, with a total value of PLN 2.5 billion. Estimates show that in 2015, the total value of investments will stand at PLN 1.5 billion and some 1,300 workplaces will be created.
"We have revised our expectations for this year. It seemed that after we had recorded great results last year, there will be a decline in the number and value of investments, however, it turned out that investors' interest is growing," Piotr Wojaczek, CEO of the SEZ, told Newseria agency.
Early forecasts suggested that there will be 10 or 12 new projects worth around PLN 1 billion, but after reviewing the Q1 results, the SEZ expects that the number of investments will double.
