Poland’s Economic Rise Takes Center Stage at Kosciuszko Foundation DC Event

The Kosciuszko Foundation DC hosted an engaging discussion on Poland’s expanding role in the global economy during a special event titled “Scaling Success: Poland’s Private Sector in the Global Economy” on Tuesday evening, May 12, at its Washington, D.C. center.

Organized by the Kosciuszko Foundation Next-Gen Association, the event welcomed young professionals from across the DMV area for a conversation focused on Poland’s rapid economic development and the evolving opportunities and challenges facing its private sector.

Featured speakers Erik Brattberg and Pablo Rasmussen of Brzezinski Global Strategies shared insights into Poland’s economic trajectory, international competitiveness, and strategic importance within the global marketplace.

The discussion explored how Poland has emerged as one of Europe’s fastest-growing economies while addressing key issues shaping the country’s future growth, innovation, and international partnerships.

Beyond the panel discussion, the evening served as a valuable networking opportunity for members of the Polish-American professional community. Attendees exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and explored avenues for future collaboration in business, policy, and international affairs.

The event was another successful initiative by the Kosciuszko Foundation Next-Gen Association aimed at fostering professional development and strengthening connections among emerging leaders in the Polish-American community.
