From May 29–31, 2026, the 30th edition of the WallStreet Conference, organized by the Individual Investors Association (SII), took place in Karpacz, Poland. Once again, the event brought together individual investors, entrepreneurs, analysts, representatives of listed companies, and institutions that help shape the Polish capital market.

The 30th edition of the WallStreet Conference, organized by the Individual Investors Association, took place in Karpacz from May 29–31, 2026. Once again, the event brought together individual investors, entrepreneurs, analysts, company representatives, and institutions that make up the Polish capital market.

This year’s edition was special not only because of the 30th anniversary, but also due to record attendance. WallStreet 30 was attended by 2,253 people, the highest attendance figure in the history of the conference.

“When we organized the first conference in 1997, we could not have imagined even in our wildest dreams that this undertaking would grow to such a scale. I am deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to this, especially the participants who have attended our conferences throughout all these years. The Polish investment community is growing stronger, and the WallStreet conferences are growing along with it, breaking new records,” says Jarosław Dominiak, President of the Individual Investors Association, the organizer of the WallStreet Conference. This year’s event was co-organized by the Entrepreneurship Club.

The WallStreet 30 program featured more than 100 lectures, debates, and presentations involving over 150 experts from various areas of the capital market. Topics discussed included new investment trends, investment strategies, market and economic forecasts, investment psychology, running a business, and capital market regulations, including the prospects for the implementation of Personal Investment Accounts (OKI).

WallStreet 30 also provided an opportunity to meet with companies and other entities operating in the capital market. These interactions were particularly supported through the conference’s regular program features: the Shareholder Forum and the Your Investments Fair, which brought together 80 exhibitors.

During WallStreet 30, another annual meeting took place between individual investors and the management board of the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Tomasz Bardziłowski, Michał Kobza, and Sławomir Panasiuk were present in Karpacz. The Polish Financial Supervision Authority was represented by Magdalena Łapsa-Parczewska, Managing Director of the Capital Market Supervision Division.

On behalf of the Ministry of Finance, investors met with Katarzyna Przewalska, Director of the Financial Market Development Department. Due to other commitments, Minister of Finance Andrzej Domański was unable to attend in person. The head of the finance ministry, who worked in the capital market before entering politics, addressed participants in a speech that was broadcast during the anniversary gala.

During the gala, awards were presented to individuals and organizations that make a special contribution to the development of economic education, the quality of public debate about the market, and the promotion of informed investing. In the Capital Market Heroes poll, based on votes cast by internet users, the following were recognized:

Economic Journalist: Patrycjusz Wyżga, Wirtualna Polska

Educator, Stock Market Content Creator: Finanse Bardzo Osobiste (Marcin Iwuć, Katarzyna Iwuć, Maciej Pielok)

Stock Market Analyst: Paweł Malik, Portal Analiz

Brokerage House: DM BOŚ, Interactive Brokers, XTB (joint winners, based on the results of the Nationwide Investor Survey)

On the occasion of the anniversary, individual investors who had most frequently participated in WallStreet conferences were also honored. Record-holder Grzegorz Polak attended 29 of the 30 events held to date.

Additional events accompanied the WallStreet Conference: starsUP WallStreet Startupy, dedicated to investments in startups and technology, and the Lower Silesia Zone, a space showcasing the region’s business, investment, and tourism potential.

The traditional sports component of WallStreet was also extensive. As part of the “Active and Charitable” initiative, the following events took place: a football tournament featuring former footballers Dariusz Gęsior and Tomasz Sokołowski, a nighttime basketball game, a morning run with athlete Sofia Ennaoui, a chess tournament, and a cycling coffee ride.

The next major event organized by the Individual Investors Association will be ForFin 2026 – the Finance and Investment Forum, which will take place on November 20–21, 2026, at PGE Narodowy in Warsaw.

“I would already like to invite everyone to WallStreet 31, which we will organize next year. We are setting the bar high, so I believe that next year we will meet in an even larger group, perhaps also including investors who enter the market thanks to OKI. Before that, however, our second flagship event, ForFin 2026, will take place. I invite you to PGE Narodowy in Warsaw on November 20 and 21, 2026. I guarantee that everyone will find something for themselves and their portfolio!” adds Jarosław Dominiak, President of SII.

ForFin is an event aimed primarily at people taking their first steps in the world of personal finance, saving, and investing. However, there will also be something for more advanced investors. Participation in the event is free of charge. More information and registration are available at www.forfin.pl.
