Łódź and Japan share an almost 20-year history of successful economic and cultural collaboration. This year’s economic mission to Japan was particularly unique, organized jointly by the Łódź Voivodeship Marshal’s Office, the City of Łódź (Invest in Łódź), Łódzka Specjalna Strefa Ekonomiczna / Lodz Special Economic Zone and F/K LEGAL. Our delegation’s presence in Japan was both a gesture of thanks to our trusted Japanese business partners and an invitation to new partners to consider collaboration with us. It’s been a busy week: two seminars (in Osaka and Tokyo) with close to 120 representatives from Japanese companies and local business support organizations, as well as numerous individual business meetings. Potential investors had the opportunity to hear a series of presentations on the economic profile and investment potential of Łódź and the region. Our Japanese business partners, already established in our region, shared their experiences investing in Poland and the support they’ve received from local authorities and institutions.

We had the privilege of attending the Aspire Leaders Summit in Krakow, where leaders from across the GBS sector gathered to discuss the future of global business services and shared the latest insights on FDI flows, location strategies, and sector evolution.

The panel, which included industry leaders Bartosz Brak (HSBC), Timothy O'Brien (Brown Brothers Harriman), Przemysław Roth (ASPIRE Poland) and Vice Mayor Adam Pustelnik, examined both the opportunities and challenges facing Krakow as a top-tier GBS destination, while also shedding light on Lodz's emerging role in the sector.
