We had the pleasure of visiting the European Commission Representation in Poland and meeting with its Director, Katarzyna Smyk.
The discussion focused on presenting the Institute’s activities and its engagement in the debate on the shape of the EU’s future multiannual budget. We also discussed the programming of its expenditure and trends in commercialisation within the Polish economy. These issues form part of the Institute’s analytical work on the European dimension of public policy. During the meeting, we also extended invitations to two upcoming events: the Łukasiewicz – ITECH Annual Conference “Security for Prosperity” (14 October 2026, National Library in Warsaw), held under the honorary patronage of the European Commission Representation in Poland, and the Horizon4Poland conference, scheduled for 3 November 2026.
