The BWIT 2021 project has come to an end
Both networking sessions of Canadian Women in Tech 2021 Virtual Mission to Poland (BWIT 2021) in Poland – pitching & individual B2B meetings – were attended by several dozen entities present on the Polish market interested in cooperation with Canadian companies and innovation champions.
As the Organizer, we are glad that we could once again support the construction of business bridges between Poland and Canada. It was a great satisfaction to participate in initiating a dialogue on the possibilities of joint R&D projects involving key centers on the Polish side.
Together, with the invaluable contribution of our Strategic Partner – the Canadian Embassy to Poland – we have added another small brick to the development of an interesting Polish-Canadian networking and business communication platform.
We would like to thank all parties for their cooperation, and entities that did not manage to join the Polish-Canadian Business Mixer are invited to participate in the next editions.
