The industry comprises around three hundred entities. These are both large companies, with decades of experience in production, and also smaller enterprises established over the last decade, including many promising startups. Enterprises with high growth potential prevail, and over 60% revenues of these companies come from exports. 4 According to data of the Statistics Poland, exports of medical equipment from Poland are growing rapidly. In 2018, their value amounted to nearly EUR 2.2 billion, as compared to EUR 1.8 billion in the previous year. The Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology supports the development of the medical devices and equipment industry in Poland, and provides support for entrepreneurs in their internationalization and foreign expansion. The programs currently implemented support companies in promoting their brands with a potential to become recognizable on international markets. Thanks to our support, a growing group of Polish entrepreneurs present their product innovations around the world and develop export activities. Considering the international importance of MEDICA and last year’s success of the Polish national stand at this fair, the Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology decided again to organize a large exhibition space to promote the Polish medical equipment industry. The 2018 edition of MEDICA was visited by over 130.000 people from all over the world. On this occasion, the achievements of more than 140 Polish companies were promoted at the Polish stand, and over nine hundred B2B meetings were held there. We invite you to visit the Polish stand – a place for meetings and presentation of the Polish potential in the medical devices and equipment industry. I wish you many fruitful meetings at MEDICA this year! 5 Małgorzata Oleszczuk President of the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development The export of medical devices from Poland, to developed and developing markets alike, is growing year by year. Last year we broke another record, having exported equipment worth EUR 2.18 billion. Growth of exports is no surprise. Devices made in Poland have been gaining appreciation, largely resulting from consistent product improvements, investments in research and development as well as industrial design. Polish manufacturers of medical equipment have extensive experience in making high quality products and selling them at affordable prices. Increased international recognition of Polish medical companies can, among other factors, be attributed to their effective promotion activities, including attending the most important industry trade fairs in the world. Polish medical devices are well appreciated in countries such as Germany, USA, Denmark, United Kingdom, as well as in China, Kazakhstan or Turkey. Some domestic manufacturers already enjoy the status of global companies. The international 6 character of Polish manufacturers of medical equipment is further confirmed by the fact that on average 60% of their sales are exports. It is our goal to increase the number of such internationally recognized Polish companies. The government has been involved in promotion of the Polish medical industry for several years. The Polish Agency for Enterprise Development (PARP) is one of the entities which carry out promotion activities on its behalf, being responsible for the organisation of national stands at leading international medical trade fairs, such as MEDICA. In 2017 the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development organised the national stand at MEDICA in Düsseldorf for the first time. Our B2B area served to Polish entrepreneurs as the space for over a hundred business meetings with foreign partners. The high praise that the stand received from Polish companies, as well as their expectation that it becomes a staple of future editions of the fair, further strengthened our belief that the decision to become involved in the promotion of the Polish medical devices industry was not only right, but necessary. The experience we gained at MEDICA 2017 resulted in the great success of the national stand in the following year. Polish entrepreneurs attended approximately one thousand business meetings held at the national stand organised by PARP in 2018. The total space of 240 square metres made it a comfortable exhibition area and meeting venue for Polish companies and their partners. In 2019 the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development has a privilege to organise the Polish national stand at MEDICA for the third time. We are honoured that the Ministry of Entrepreneurship and Technology entrusted this task to us again, and we are certain that this initiative will contribute to many new business contacts of Polish companies. 7 Growing innovation of Polish enterprises Poland joined the European Union in 2004. Many enterprises made use of EU funds for research and development, as well as to modernize and develop their factories. Apart from that, they were now able to freely compete on the Community market – exports to the EU currently account for 59% of all medical devices and equipment exports from Poland. Geographic structure of medical devices and equipment exports in 2018 59% 41% EU outside the EU Source: Statistics Poland 8 This allowed to further capitalize on the potential of the Polish medical ecosystem – medical universities, research institutes subordinate to the Ministry of Health, educational units in the design, manufacture and sale of medical devices and equipment, as well as enterprises that make them. Many Polish enterprises in the sector have modern production sites, equipped with the highest quality means of production as well as state-of-the-art laboratory and research equipment. According to the Statistics Poland (Główny Urząd Statystyczny), in the years 2013-17 the expenses of enterprises on modernisation and R&D increased by around EUR 1.5 billion, from EUR 3.6 billion to EUR 5.1 billion. This allows Polish manufacturers to present a customised and flexible offer to their international partners, as well as highest quality products at attractive prices. Expenses of Polish enterprises on research and development (in EUR billion) 5.1 4.5 3.6 2013 2015 2017 Source: Statistics Poland In order to compete on the Community market, Polish companies have adapted to the EU quality and safety regulations. Adherence to high European standards has translated into raising the international prestige of Polish medical devices and equipment, both within Europe and beyond. 9 Any Polish manufacturer wishing to sell its goods to other EU countries is obliged to obtain the CE mark confirming their compliance with quality and safety requirements. This makes it easier for domestic manufacturers to adhere to the standards required when having devices and equipment approved for use in markets outside the EU, e.g. in countries such as Russia or the United States where more and more Polish companies receive certification from the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration).

  • Zabiegi Retoryczne W Dyskursie Politycznym, Czyli Jak Powiedzieć Wszystko, Co Trzeba I Tylko To, Co Trzeba?
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS LODZIENSIS FOLIA LINGUISTICA 45, 2010 Elwira Kukieła Uniwersytet Łódzki ZABIEGI RETORYCZNE W DYSKURSIE POLITYCZNYM, CZYLI JAK POWIEDZIEĆ WSZYSTKO, CO TRZEBA I TYLKO TO, CO TRZEBA? Dobry polityk musi umieć przepowiedzieć, co będzie się działo jutro, za tydzień, czy za rok i musi umieć wytłumaczyć, dlaczego nie zaszło to, co przepowiedział. Winston Churchill 1. O SZTUCE WYMOWY Kwintylian nazwał ją „królową wszelkich rzeczy, darem najcenniejszym, który bogowie zesłali śmiertelnikom, mistrzem w rzemiośle przekonywania”1. Retoryka jest znaną od tysiącleci sztuką wymowy oraz poprawnego myślenia i skutecznego przekonywania słuchaczy. Afirmując piękne mówienie – bene dicendi – przeciwstawia się wypowiedziom zwykłym, potocznym, nieozdob- nym. „Jest bowiem i sztuką pięknego wysłowienia, i teorią prozy, i teorią wymowy jako kunsztu oralnego, i sztuką argumentacji”2. Według Arystotelesa, służyła poszukiwaniu tego, co w mowie może mieć znaczenie przekonujące3. Retorykę spopularyzowali sofiści, zwłaszcza Protagoras, Gorgiasz i Izokra- tes. W II i I w. p.n.e. zdobyła wpływy w kulturze politycznej Rzymu. W tamtych czasach sztuka mówienia stanowiła odrębną dziedzinę wiedzy filologicznej i nadrzędną kompetencję językową. Uczyła jasnego, stosownego, ale zarazem ozdobnego wyrażania myśli i uczuć. Jak podaje Mirosław Korolko, „cele retoryki odpowiadały ideałom greckiej paidei, które w języku polskim określa się mianem humanistycznej kultury słowa i działania”4. 1 M. F.

  • The Protection of Human Rights in the New Polish Constitution
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 22, Issue 2 1998 Article 2 The Protection of Human Rights in the New Polish Constitution Ryszard Cholewinski∗ ∗ Copyright c 1998 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj The Protection of Human Rights in the New Polish Constitution Ryszard Cholewinski Abstract This Article examines the extent of human rights protection under the Constitution of the Re- public of Poland of April 2, 1997 (”new Polish Constitution” or “Constitution”), adopted on April 2, 1997, by the Polish National Assembly and approved by the Polish people in a referendum on May 25, 1997. The Constitution, a lengthy document composed of 243 articles, came into force on October 17, 1997, and is one of the last constitutions to be adopted in Central and Eastern Europe since the start of the political and socio-economic transformations of the post-communist era. This Article emphasizes the importance of the new Polish Constitution in light of the long tradition of constitutionalism in Poland. Part I surveys some of the earlier constitutional texts, with particular focus on the provisions concerning the protection of human rights. After briefly discussing the difficulties encountered in drafting the new Polish Constitution, Part II analyzes the protection of rights and freedoms in the Constitution in light of the most recent developments. This part focuses on the general principles underlying rights and freedoms in the Constitution, certain prominent civil and political rights of particular importance in their specific Polish context, the debate surrounding the constitutionalization of economic and social rights, the protection of so-called ”third-generation rights” such as the right to a clean and healthy environment, and lim- itations on rights and freedoms.

  • The 2015 Elections to the Senate of the Republic of Poland
    Polish Political Science Yearbook vol. 45 (2016), pp. 205–218 DOI: 10.15804/ppsy2016016 PL ISSN 0208-7375 Krystyna Leszczyńska Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin (Poland) The 2015 Elections to the Senate of the Republic of Poland Abstract: The discussion about justification for the very existence of Senate, as it was the case in previous years, also took place prior to the 2015 parliamentary elections. Postulates for the second chamber of parliament to be abolished are the inseparable element of election campaigns in Poland. Announcements of total abolishment or change of: form, competencies or number and the election prin- ciples for members of Senate, although they found their expression in the 2015 election programs of some of the political parties, but they were never applied after elections. The single member Senate constituencies secured seats almost ex- clusively for candidates supported by one of the two strongest political parties, that is the Law and Justice (PiS) and the Civic Platform (PO). Even if in the result of 25 October 2015 elections four independent candidates were elected for senators, three of them used support of political parties, using a rule well proven four years earlier: there is not senator without a political party protector. The 40% support for PiS which turned into 61% of seats indicates that the election system for Senate leads to overrepresentation of election winners. Keywords: Senate; election campaign; single member constituencies; deformation of election result; overrepresentation of the winning party Introduction The analysis of the 2015 Senate election campaign aims at verification of two hy- potheses. First of the assumes that the announcements of abolishment or change of Senate’s character are solely an element of pre-election strategy and in those catego- ries we may perceive the votes that negate the justification for its very existence.

  • The Development of Poland's Right: from Reliance On
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF POLAND’S RIGHT: FROM RELIANCE ON HISTORICAL RIVALRIES TO STABLE PARTY PLATFORMS Ashley Karen Timidaiski A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Curriculum in Russian and East European Studies. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Dr. Milada Anna Vachudova Dr. Graeme Robertson Dr. Chad Bryant ©2009 Ashley Karen Timidaiski ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT ASHLEY KAREN TIMIDAISKI: The Development of Poland’s Right: from Reliance on Historical Rivalries to Stable Party Platforms (Under the direction of Dr. Milada Anna Vachudova) Many predicted that Poland’s developing political party system would favor a strong right wing due to several preexisting qualities: Poland’s less oppressive communist regime, the strong presence of the Catholic Church in Polish society, and the power of Solidarity – Poland’s exceptionally large anti-communist opposition movement. However Poland’s Right remained weak and fragmented for over a decade after the transition from communism. This thesis posits that the weakness of Poland’s Right was due to their reliance on historical rivalries between the Solidarity-successor and Communist-successor parties as a campaign platform instead of creating a cohesive political ideology under unified leadership, as was exemplified by the failed right-wing coalition of the 1990s, Solidarity Electoral Action. In conclusion, it was not until the 2005 and 2007 elections, when the Right was forced to compete against each other, that the historical rivalry strategy was abandoned, resulting in two stable mass parties on the Right.
