IT and technology sector
The Podlaskie Silicon Forest is a phrase which is gaining popularity when describing the Podlaskie Region. The term refers to primeval forests, which are still found in the region, and the ecosystem of science and business, reminiscent of the American Silicon Valley. Like California, Podlaskie is teeming with start-ups that implement innovations on a global scale, using artificial intelligence, augmented reality, machine learning, and other cutting-edge technology. Products of Podlaskie’s companies successfully conquer international markets, becoming synonymous with high quality and reliability. Some of them will be present at the business seminar in Osaka.
Medical sector
The medical sector is one of the leading specializations of Podlaskie. Regional companies manufacture high-quality medical implants and innovative, durable, and ergonomic laboratory furniture and conduct research on anti-cancer drugs, while local universities, led by the Medical University of Białystok and the Białystok University of Technology, provide highly specialized personnel.
Food and agritech sector
One of the Podlaskie Region’s greatest assets is its untainted natural environment. Clean forests, rivers, lakes, and meadows are ideal for developing the green economy and agri-food sector.

The Podlaskie cosmetics industry enjoys an excellent reputation among a growing number of customers. Cosmetics created in the region use groundbreaking innovations and draw from ingredients derived from the original nature.
