Euronews Has Acknowledged the Growing Tech Prominence of Podlaskie, Poland

November 6, 2023

Amidst the green landscapes of Podlaskie in Poland, a surprising tech and innovation hub is on the rise. This region, renowned for its natural beauty, is now aspiring to become a “Silicon Forest” with a flourishing technology and IT sector – a recognition it recently earned from Euronews.

In Podlaskie, innovation takes center stage, with more than 10,000 professionals already employed in the IT field, including 4,000 software developers. Companies like Holo4Labs are at the forefront, producing high-tech goggles that can potentially shave up to three years off drug development processes, marking a significant leap in the industry.

The collaboration between universities and businesses in Podlaskie is producing impressive results, utilizing technology like artificial intelligence to personalize medical treatments. Local graduates, like those behind Photon, are also contributing, with their interactive robots now in classrooms across Europe and the US.

The challenge remains to attract and retain a sufficient number of skilled individuals to sustain this tech growth. With around 9,000 graduates emerging annually, the region is uniquely poised for growth and Podlaskie relies on its young, skilled workforce to bring its tech aspirations to life.
