In fact, that is how the best operate, and that is why, for most investment agreements in the Silicon Valley, there are uniform templates available for all. Why should it be different in Poland?

Upon entering the virtual exhibition, created with school children and teachers in mind, we can look around and see on the street a Citizens’ Militia minivan, Security Agency officers, and the gate at the Gdańsk Shipyard. We can visit a typical communist era flat, look at newspapers of the time full of communist propaganda, and listen to Radio Free Europe; on the table there are ration cards, a single lemon, miraculously obtained toilet paper, a petrol can, and other items that symbolized the grim reality. There is an extensive explanation of the historical context and documentation from the archives to go with each exhibit at the museum.

The consultancy firm INSPIRED and Sebastian Kulczyk’s InCredibles conducted pioneering research into sustainable development of IT firms in Poland. According to the produced report, the measures taken by most Polish IT firms in this regard which are not systematic and may be a breach of laws and community rules. Polish tech companies do not examine their carbon footprint, and most transfer data to third parties without user consent and have not implemented any corruption prevention measures. Evidently, the Polish IT sector is facing a severe challenge, especially as it constitutes 7.6% of the EU market, and Poland is in fifth place among EU countries in terms of the number of registered ICT firms, and seventh in terms of the rate of growth.
No XXI century event to date has defined this century as much as the Coronavirus. On 5 May, 202, a series of 21 articles began in which, together with the editorial team at NaTemat.pl, we looked at what the world, Poland, and our reality will be like after the Coronavirus.
In the zRÓWNOważeni campaign, we will report, working with the naTemat editorial team over a period of twelve months, on the approaches that companies take to sustainable development and corporate responsibility issues. We live in a time in which we demand more on many levels, in the same way as more is demanded of us. Businesses or large corporations are also frequently scrutinized. In this regard, particular attention needs to be paid to tech companies that have an unprecedented impact on our lives and whose reach encompasses the entire world.
