President aims to drum up business for Poland during US trip

Duda is travelling to the United States on 18 September and will take part in a General Assembly of the United Nations.

Senior presidential aide Krzysztof Szczerski said: "During the visit to New York, the president will devote a lot of attention to business relations, promoting Poland as an investment partner for American business.

“He will meet a broad range of American businesses, both those that are already present in Poland and those considering investing in Poland, in order to encourage economic partnerships with Poland,” Szczerski said.

Meanwhile, during a trip to Switzerland mid-November, Duda will focus on innovation in the economy and innovative professional training.

"There will be discussion about Swiss models and the possibility of transferring them to Poland, as well as support for innovative businesses and ideas in Poland," Szczerski said.

He added that the president wants to take a group of startup entrepreneurs with him to Switzerland so they can look for business partners.

“Switzerland is a good example of a country with which we can build up... joint efforts to boost the innovative economy in Poland," Szczerski said.
