The export of modern business services in Poland increased last year to nearly $37 billion. ➡️ Last year, the business services sector already accounted for more than 34% of Poland's commercial services exports. ➡️ This is largely a result of the structure of Poland's modern business services sector, which is highly internationalized and has a global reach and scope.

Poland can boast a place in the 🌍 global top 5 best locations for establishing business service centers. But the government should closely listen to the voices of investors, as our position cannot be taken for granted. The competition is fierce and waiting to take over some of the services performed in Poland. With their governments working together on solutions that are beneficial to the sector, they may succeed.   ➡️ The modern business services sector accounts for 4.5% of our GDP, $30 billion in exports and 435,000 high-quality jobs.    ➡️ Dialogue with foreign investors locating business service centers in the country is crucial to the development of Polish competitiveness. Such growth also benefits local companies, as each investment brings with it a range of other jobs.     ➡️ The ecosystem of business centers needs providers of IT services and equipment, but also office servicing, etc. These are vessels connected in a network of more than 1,800 centers that operate in nearly 90 Polish cities - both larger and smaller.   Read more in an article featuring Jacek Levernes, Honorary President of ABSL Poland, perspective in today's Rzeczpospolita: https://lnkd.in/dRVu6w5c

Hungary's creative contribution to Europe Our neighbouring country is deeply Central European, but it also unites cultures outside our home continent. Hungary's current economic orientation towards Beijing, Istanbul, but also New Delhi and other emerging markets, as well as its difficulty in breaking away from Moscow, have historical roots. Hungarian culture has many Asian influences. 40,000 Hungarian craft enterprises (usually 1-10 employees) in more than 200 trades are represented by IPOSZ (Ipartestültek Országos Szövetsége / Hungarian Association of Craft Enterprises / SMEunited) through a network of 139 territorially and 20 nationally organised associations. As much as the cultural richness of these small and medium-sized enterprises makes an important contribution to Europe's diversity, they also suffer from problems similar to those in other EU member states. These include excessive EU regulation, especially in recent years, and the resulting weakening of competitiveness.   We would like to thank László Németh, János Juhos, Gábor Solti and Rettich Tamás for the interesting exchange of experiences. The position papers of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber to reduce regulatory burden and reporting obligations at EU level with 88 concrete proposals for implementation were also well received by IPOSZ. The next SME meeting organised by the EU Commission will take place in Budapest on 18-20 November, due to the Hungarian Presidency. This is another important contribution to improving Europe's economic future.   We stay tuned - Christian Mandl, Philipp Schramel, Orsolya Krammer-Szányi, Karin Jessernigg-Putz, Marlene Lales, Yasmin Soetopo, Ulrike Hassmann-Vorbach, Barbara Schennach, Heinz Kogler, Iris Marlovits, Lara Condell, Christian H.

I was delighted to represent Foray Advisory at the breakfast roundtable with YB Chin Tong Liew, the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), and H.E. Ambassador Massimo Rustico, the Ambassador of Italy to Malaysia. This event was organized by Italcham Malaysia - Italian Chamber of Commerce in Malaysia, the Embassy of Italy in Kuala Lumpur, and the ITA - Italian Trade Agency in Kuala Lumpur. A couple of takeaways from the Minister's presentation include: 1) The Madani Economy framework aims to boost economic and social development, ensuring sustainable growth and social stability. 2) Development will be propelled by high-quality investments in six growth engines: reindustrialization driven by NIMP 2030, the green transition, digital transformation, world-class infrastructure and public services, a focus on high-value services, and synergistic vertical integration of the States. 3) The establishment of a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between Malaysia and the EU has strong governmental support and will facilitate the participation of Italian and EU businesses in the execution of the Madani Economy framework. Technology was central to the plan and was one - "Tech Up" - of the six engines of growth, encompassing talent development, smart manufacturing, and locally grown solutions. To stronger ties between Italy and Malaysia! #italy #malaysia #trade #industry #investments #digital #technology Sue Anne Choo, Erika Angelozzi

Geographical Indications are a powerful driver of territorial competitiveness, especially in gastronomy and tourism. Their history, artisanal production techniques, and exceptional quality make them a genuine expression of Europe’s heritage. In this context, intellectual property rights and international protection are critical components in the effort to explore new opportunities for growth and counter the increasing threats of imitation and evocation. From the Lisbon Agreement to Regulation (EU) 2024/1143, the protection of the Asiago Geographical Indication will be showcased as a best practice, alongside its ongoing journey toward sustainability. This will be presented by Director Flavio Innocenzi at the international conference, “Geographical Indications and Collective Marks: Tradition, Quality, and Identity for Sustainable Competitiveness,” taking place on November 25–26, 2024. The event, organized by the Slovenian Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) in collaboration with the European Commission, Slovenian and European institutions in economy and tourism, the World Intellectual Property Organization – WIPO, and the EUIPO - European Union Intellectual Property Office, will be held at the Brdo Congress Center. #AsiagoPDO #AsiagoPDOcheese #PDO #PGI #SIPO #WIPO #EUIPO #EU
