Undersecretary of State to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – the guest of the EBC Poland .

Administrator EKB ,

On the 26th of March 2018 upon the invitation of the President Janusz Cieślak, Marek Magierowski – Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs was a guest of the European Business Club Poland. The topics covered at the meeting of the members and sympathisers of the Club which took place in the building of the Warsaw Stock Exchange at ul. Książęca 4 in Warsaw, were the directions of promotion abroad and the range and forms of support given to Polish entrepreneurs on foreign markets by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The meeting was also an opportunity for wider debate on the economic relations between Poland and the European Union, the United States, China, India, Belarus and third world countries, as well as on the strengthening of the image and promotion of Poland on the international arena.

When greeting the guest, the President of the Association  reminded everyone about the flow of professional career of the Minister and emphasised the currently occupied post – undersecretary of state for economic diplomacy, American, Asian, African and Middle eastern politics. He said that investing abroad can have many advantages but it requires a very good knowledge of local markets and obtaining the desired effects is connected with allowing for that much more time than one would when investing in one’s own country.

When giving his speech the Minister Marek Magierowski said that Polish companies more often are present on foreign markets even such which until recently seemed to be exotic and little accessible. They are often pioneers and therefore, they cannot rely on the experience of their predecessors. The problems which they face require solutions that take into account the local legal and social specifics. Despite many difficulties Polish companies are active in searching for new sales markets. The role of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is above all creating an easy access for Polish entrepreneurs to foreign markets. The Ministry gives complex information both in the area of economy and those connected with everyday life and social moods in a given country. Entrepreneurs often expect help in complicated or non-standard situations. This is often in the case of so called “though markets” where the barriers of entering the market are high and the legal regime is not very clear to us and is definitely different from the one existing on the unified European market. On the “though markets” mechanisms making it difficult for foreign investors to enter the market are used which makes it necessary to undertake actions within the economic diplomacy. Individual interventions or official meetings with the participation of diplomats do not only open the doors but they also help in solving specific problems. The Minister emphasised that Polish companies can count on the support of Polish diplomatic posts and ambassadors. In particular the Ministry of Foreign Affairs undertakes various non-standard and often indispensable activities in order to effectively solve the problems of Polish entrepreneurs investing abroad. If Polish business is discriminated against the intervention of a diplomat is absolutely necessary. It is not only the sheer act of objection but also the effect of a positive solution of a given problem. Currently the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is working on solutions aiming at strengthening procedures and better equipping the posts, so that they can undertake effective actions in the interest of Polish business.

The success of Polish entrepreneurs in the area of international expansion is not only the result of cost advantages. Polish economy is characterised by high innovation and very high level of production, which in connection with relatively low costs decides on the competitiveness of Polish companies. The ratio of quality to costs results in the more frequent presence of Polish entrepreneurs on demanding markets and they don’t have to be companies in the big scale production. It is worthwhile to look at companies which were successful in order to build one’s own development strategy based on their experience.

Minister Marek Magierowski emphasised that today Poland’s strategic interest is to pay attention to development and expansion of Polish companies. That is why during official visits apart from the political agenda on the one hand there is also a possibility to present to that country’s administration exemplary Polish companies which are ready to enter the local market. On the other hand companies have the possibility to show their offer and ideas for the investment in a given country. At the end not only those who make final decisions on the choice of products or obtaining business partners, but also the top level members of the administration of a given country get vast information on the Polish offer. If such presentation and exchange of information takes place within an official mission of the Polish government then the partners receive an important signal that the company is trustworthy.

In second part of the meeting participants had an opportunity to take part in a discussion and an open conversation with the Minister  – Marek Magierowski.

The meeting ended with a cocktail during which everyone could individually talk with other participants exchanging own experience and opinions on such an important matter.

Then PhD Orsolya Zsuzsanna Kovács mentioned the most important issues which influence the tightening of economic relations between Poland and Hungary.

Due to the action of the European Business Club ‘s member – Grupa Kapitałowa OT Logistics [Capital Group OT Logistics] the river transport of coal is back on the Odra River.

Administrator EKB , , ,

 

We would like to inform with pleasure that a member of the European Business Club Poland-Grupa Kapitałowa OT Logistics a leading operator of inland sailing in Poland intends to re-open coal transport from Silesian mines to the energy company Kogeneracja Wrocław. This will be the first river transport since few years back of coal on the route Gliwice Port – Wrocław

The River transport of coal is back on the Odra River

Grupa Kapitałowa OT Logistics a leading operator of inland sailing in Poland intends to re-open coal transport from Silesian mines to the energy company Kogeneracja Wrocław. This will be the first river transport since few years back of coal on the route Gliwice Port – Wrocław

The first trial transport to Kogeneracja Wrocław (2 thousand tons of coal) is planned for the mid of July. Barges of OT Logistics will  transport coal to Wrocław from the Gliwice Port. The coal will be delivered from the mine of Sośnica by block trains consisting of 40 carriages of special series Fas. Upon the order of OT Logistics Śląskie Centrum Logistyki [Silesian Centre for Logistics] will deal with the reloading from the carriages to the barges. If the voyage will not encounter any obstacles on the river, OT Logistics is planning to transport to Wrocław 20 thousand tons of coal monthly until the end of the year.

 

J– The renewal of coal transport on the Odra River can be treated as a symbol of the coming changes in the river navigation. We count on the fact that primarily commercial cruises will be present on the Upper Odra. Silesia needs an inland river connection with the rest of the country. Inland navigation is an indispensible element of the developing intermodal transport and should become a strong third branch of transport beside roads and rail – said Andrzej Klimek, Vice President of the Board and Director of the Inland Navigation Division of OT Logistics. We count on the success of the government plans to open the Odra Waterway as well as restoring the function of transport to the biggest Polish rivers which they fulfilled since medieval times and which has died out in the last decades. Water transport is the most environmentally friendly form of transport which will support an increase in the goods exchange in the country as well as it will allow to relieve the road transport. On its part OT Logistics is ready to support Polish logistics by great increase of the volume of goods transported by rivers – added Andrzej Klimek.

Investments planned by the Ministry of Maritime and Inland Navigation stated in “The Guidelines for development plans of inland water routes in Poland for 2016-2020 with the perspective to 2030” aim at inter alia obtaining international navigation class on the Odra waterway as well as its inclusion into the European waterways network. Additionally by accessing the United Nations AGN convention Poland contracted to adjust main waterways to class IV of navigation.

The transport of coal on the route Gliwice Port – Wrocław will be carried out by three sets of barges led by pushers of the Tur type. The barges have a distance to cover of about 200 km via the Silesian Channel and Odra river. The cruise will go through 27 sluices.

President of the EBC Poland is the member of the Honorary Committee of the Scientific Conference in the University of Euroregional Economy.

Administrator EKB , , ,

 

On the 24th of May 2017 at the Alcide De Gasperi University of Euroregional Economy a scientific conference “Management in XXI century. Human resources in the future organization” took place. In the Honorary Committee chaired by prof. Halina Czubasiewicz from the University of Gdańsk Mr. Janusz Cieślak – the President of the European Business Club Poland took part.

Management is a faculty which imposes responsibility and requires creation as well as promotion of a person in the organisation as the top value. Dynamic changes which occur in Poland as well as in the world exert constant development which cannot be based on patterns. The aim of the Conference was a trial to answer the questions: what should be taught in the field of management?, what would the organizations of the future look like?, what employees will intelligent organizations need? and to diagnose mutual relations in developing structures in organizations of the future.

The programme of the Conference consisted of two panels:

  1. Corporate Social Responsibility. Managing an organization. The nature of Communications in organisations.
  2. The meaning of innovation of enterprises. Human Resources Management. The role of negotiations on the competitive market.

The President of the EBC Poland-Janusz Cieślak took part in both of the panels sharing both his knowledge and experience.
