The IT sector in Poland
The Information and Technology sector in Poland is divided into three separate but closely related areas:
- - hardware;
- - software; and
- - IT services (implementation, integration, technical service, consultancy, outsourcing, etc.)
Hardware components fabricated in Poland and modern software solutions developed in the country are gaining more and more recognition abroad. The administration sector in Poland is the largest purchaser of IT services and IT products in Poland, followed by the public services sector. The transport sector and the banking and telecommunications sectors in Poland are also traditional purchasers of IT services and products.
Why invest in the Polish IT sector
Poland is becoming an important IT services and products provider. Foreign investments in the IT market are a key factor that contributes to the growth of this business field, but Poland has other advantages on its side, such as a
highly educated workforce operating in the Information and Technology sector. The employment rate in this sector is expected to continue to grow.
The development of the IT sector in Poland is driven by the worldwide innovations in the field and new market trends. A segment that is rapidly developing is the one concerning applications for mobile products. Cloud computing is also becoming more popular and experts in the field believe that this type of service will develop during the next 2 years.
IT companies in Poland generally specialise in more than one type of service. Entrepreneurs who want to invest in this sector may benefit from government grants for the creation of new jobs and for the costs for the new investment. Our
company formation agents can help you pick a
Special Economic Zone to open your company and benefit from favourable conditions.
