Vectors 2018 awarded!

Vectors and Super Vectors, prestigious awards presented by Employers of Poland, have been awarded. This year’s edition focused on those who show how to modernize companies, creatively implement innovation and successfully compete with international giants.

Each year, Vectors honor people and institutions who achieved the most dazzling business successes or significantly changed the Polish economy. Awards for 2018 were presented to those, who distinguished themselves in the field of innovation. Poland does not make full use of the great potential of our entrepreneurs. Hence, Employers of Poland decided to highlight the work of those who show the way towards modernizing the country.
