For the fourth year running, Uznam Island became a meeting place for business and top politics. Held on 25-27 April in Świnoujście and Heringsdorf, the Baltic Business Forum 2012 once again attracted both national and foreign elites.

On 19th April three new companies received certificates of membership of the Scandinavian-Polish Chamber of Commerce. One of them was Eltwin Sp. z o.o., a Danish producer of electronic goods, encouraged to invest in Szczecin by the Investors’ Assistance Center in November 2010.

The terrain of the Gryfia Shipyard in Szczecin will become home to a new innovative off-shore plant, i.e. one associated with the production of bulk steel constructions for the maritime power engineering sector. The plant will produce the foundations for maritime wind power plants. The contract, which was signed on 2 April of this year in Warsaw, covers the realisation of the undertaking through the joint venture of the following three companies: the German company Bilfinger Berger, the Gdynia CRIST Shipyard, and the MARS Closed Investment Fund, owned by the Industrial Development Agency (IDA).

Thanks to the international conference of the Baltic Business Forum, for three days (25 to 27 April 2012) Świnoujście will become the European economic capital for the fourth time. The details of this prestigious assembly of European politicians, experts and businessmen were discussed during a press conference by Olgierd Geblewicz, Prof. Dariusz Rosati, Jacek Piechota and Dariusz Więcaszek.
