About Warsaw
In Warsaw, you can see most clearly how the city is taking full advantage of the tremendous and unique opportunities arising from the emergence of free market and the development of democracy. Poland's capital is one of the fastest growing cities in Europe. The investment boom is visible everywhere you go. The city has become one big construction and renovation site. The office and commercial buildings commissioned in the recent years accommodate hundreds of business, research institutions, banks and international organisations. Scores of new ones are going up in Warsaw, and the demand for high-class office space is still enormous. Keys have been handed to nearly 20,000 new flats and luxury apartments. To meet the needs of an inreasing number of people commuting every day to the city centre from different boroughs of Warsaw, the underground line is currently being extended.
During the past five years, the value of Warsaw's development projects has surpassed $ 5 billion. Most of them were made possible by foreign direct investment. Large buildings erected by foreign investors have become characteristic for the city's landcape. Representative offices and headquarters are being built not only by major banks and insurance companies of international reputation operating in Warsaw, but also by consortia active throughout Poland even in the neighbouring countries. They choose Warsaw for its central location in Europe, convenient international travel connections, a well-developed telecommunication network, as well as economic and political stability.
Those investing in Warsaw can be sure of a very high rate of return on the capital invested - a rarity in large cities, and a developed, absorbent consumer market.
Yet it is the city's residents who are its real asset.
Warsaw, a city with a population of nearly 2 million, is home to the country's largest university and research centre with numerous and highly skilled academic staff. There are also from 10,000 to 20,000 international managers, specialists working in the capital, deployed by consulting and development companies recognised world-wide, along with hundreds of international businesspeople visiting the city daily. Foreigners working here appreciate good working conditions and a friendly attitude of Varsovians.
We are pleased to invite you to Warsaw, the city that is also attractive in cultural and tourist terms. A number of well-known cultural events of international importance are held here. The extensive repertoire of theatres, numerous concert halls and cinemas will satisfy even the most demanding audience.
Finally, we would like to invite you to Warsaw for its numerous historic landmarks and reminders of its glorious past, to the capital that is changing rapidly from a drab city into a modern metropolis, as young as its inhabitants; which is becoming more beautiful day by day.
