Why Norwegian Polish Foundation

Poland's growth in GDP and further expectation towards 2050 will give possibilities in an undervalued market

As income from Norwegian oil and gas is expected to decline, Norway needs to create and develop new products and markets to fil the revenue gap.

This we have known for long time. Norwegian governmental organizations with public programs for financial and practical marked approach have been available, but so far this has not given the needed result. It seems the focus and capacity has been used for applying these programs, not for practical executing to get result.

Sweden and Denmark have a long history for international developing. Here has Norway much to learn. Just by looking at the capacity and support from the different Nordic Embassy's in Poland, Sweden and Denmark plays in a different league.

Knowing this situation, Norwegian Polish Foundation would like to offer our assistance as we have practical experience, documented result and local knowledge. We believe therefore we could be an interesting partner for Norwegian interest in the Polish marked.
