About Warsaw

Warsaw is situated in the heart of Poland, with Poland positioned at the center of Europe. This makes our city an ideal destination not only for political and scientific gatherings but also for business and cultural events.

A blend of modern architecture, welcoming infrastructure, and innovative residents has established Warsaw as a key business hub. However, beyond the fast-paced business scene, the city’s unique rhythm can still be felt. Explore the diverse flavors at the capital’s restaurants, enjoy a walk along the Vistula river, or venture into the charming backstreets of the Old Town to uncover hidden gems.
