Every year, the “Diplomatic Opening of the Year” ceremony at the National Chamber of Commerce is an opportunity to present plans for international economic cooperation implemented by individual institutions, ministries and the economic self-government. It is also an appropriate place to express gratitude for the support so far provided to Polish entrepreneurs on foreign markets.

It is an initiative that promotes activities that constitute an important element of economic diplomacy in its broadest sense and fosters the definition of Poland’s place in the area of international economic and trade cooperation.

This year’s edition was held on 19 January 2018 at the Olympic Centre in Warsaw. The LIDEX Translation Centre in Warsaw was one of the event’s sponsors and, as a technical partner, provided, among other things, simultaneous interpreting equipment with technical support.
