Editor’s lEttEr
Dear Readers,
Well, this issue is all about Polish women – from successful businesswomen
like Magda Gessler and Dr Irena Eris, to up-and-coming visionaries like
Halina Piasecka, Anna Garbaczewska and Anna Traczewska. We also feature
several talented young Polish fashion designers – notably the dramatic Ewa
Minge – and four artists who are really making a name for themselves,
despite their youth and certain hurdles in their paths. We may expect great
things from all these women in the future.
This issue we also focus on Poland's growing airport sector; at the moment,
there are 11 civil airports in the country, but the government, the EU and
private investors have very ambitious plans to possibly increase that number
more than two-fold over the next decade. It is just further proof that more
and more people are coming to Discover Poland.

Over the last few years the development of Polish-British economic cooperation
has been particularly dynamic. Polish statistical data for 2007 showed the
dynamics of mutual sales turnover at 23.8% with a turnover value of 9.8 bn
EUR, of which Polish exports were over 6 bn EUR whilst the import of British
goods reached almost 3.8 bn EUR.

These parts of Poland are
featured in this issue:
The level of British investment in Poland, currently approximately 4 bn EUR,
has been constantly rising. Poland’s investment engagement in Great Britain is
also growing and according to National Bank of Poland data, it now exceeds
800 mln EUR.
The dynamic development of mutual economic cooperation along with
the rise of labour migration from Poland in the period of 2004-2007 have
aroused in British society an interest in Poland - its culture, history and national
monuments.

Poland is a very attractive country touristically speaking, and many places
are still waiting to be discovered by foreign tourists. Hence, the idea of Fortis
Media (UK) to publish, with the collaboration of the Polish National Tourist
Ofice, a magazine promoting Poland as a country worth visiting not only for
business purposes.

And thus, discover Poland together with the magazine Discover Poland .
