Warsaw among leading knowledge regions of Europe

With a concentration of 14.6 percent of its working-age population employed in knowledge-intensive firms, Warsaw ranks as the 11th best performing European region in terms of brain business jobs. This places it ahead of strong regions such as Utrecht, Amsterdam, and Oslo. 

Examples of innovative start-up companies in Warsaw include Packhelp, an online platform for creating and ordering custom-branded packaging in a web browser, Nomagic, which provides pick and place robotic solutions for order fulfillment, and Imnipack, a full-stack logistics company, working with the e-commerce sector.

Warsaw is the fastest-growing region, alongside Bratislava and three German regions

On a regional basis, the most significant increase of brain business jobs has occurred in Warsaw, the Polish capital region, followed by the Slovakian capital region of Bratislava, and the German region of Braunschweig. This German region was an important center of commerce already in medieval Germany and is one of several strongly growing German regions.
