Silver jubilees are rare occasions to be savoured in the knowledge that the golden jubilee is still 25 years away. And so it was with the BPCC's Silver Jubilee Gala Dinner, a glorious sell-out affair! 

Over the past three years, the BPCC has been organising more and more meetings in factories, where representatives of manufacturing industry get together to discuss issues of common concern.

On 23rd August a meeting "Learning foreign languages in a company - bonus or trouble?" took place in famed SkyTower, the highest building in the city of Wrocław.

This year's Polish British Economic Forum focused not so much on export to the UK, as it did in past years, but more on investing in Britain.
