Wroclaw Business Mixer October 2013

The PCCC were delighted to host a business reception at the Art Hotel in honour of the Ambassador of Canada to Poland H.E. Alexandra Bugailiskis’ visit to Dolnośłąsk.

Included in her itinerary were visits to Canadian firms Bombardier and Redknee, as well as to KGHM’s headquarters in Lubin.

In attendance at the evening reception were Vice Governer of Dolnośłąsk, Ewa Mańkowska and Vice Mayor of Wrocław, Adam Grehl.  We were also pleased to host representatives of Pratt Whitney Kalisz, Hatch, a Canadian engineering and construction management firm, and Acana, an all-natural petfood business.

We are very grateful for support from Bombardier Transportation and Mielżyński Wines for helping to make the event a success.
