Trade and Investment Promotion Sections of Polish Embassies and Consulates were created to help Polish businesses to internationalise, particularly SMEs. Our mission is not only to help Polish companies but, also, to assist foreign businesses looking to buy goods and services in Poland or locate their activity in our country. Our offices around the world are equally sensitive to the needs and requests of Polish as well as foreign businesses.

The British Council is the United Kingdom’s international organisation for cultural relations.

The British Council creates international opportunities for the people of the UK and other countries and builds trust between them worldwide. We call this cultural relations.

We build trust and understanding for the UK to create a safer and more prosperous world. In terms of our reach and impact, we are the world’s leading cultural relations organisation. Cultural relations is a component of international relations which focuses on developing people-to-people links and complements government-to-people and government-to-government contact. We use English, Arts, and Education and Society – the best of the UK’s great cultural assets – to bring people together and to attract partners to working with the UK. The British Council has over 7,000 staff working in 191 offices in 110 countries and territories.

The development of innovative enterprises by exploiting the potential of design – this is the goal that’s driven us for over nine years. At Zamek Cieszyn we’re convinced that design is an effective tool for increasing the competitiveness of businesses, institutions, towns, cities and regions.
 
The design workshops to which we invite experienced design experts from the whole of Europe and the United States enjoy international acclaim. We encourage local businesses to take part in meetings of the Enterprise Club, and members of local government and the media, designers and entrepreneurs from the whole of Poland to take advantage of our practical courses, consultations and the location itself, which is an attractive tourist destination.
 
We present modern design and architecture during exhibitions not seen anywhere else in Poland, and you can also see traditional craft appearing in remarkable new roles. Another of our assets is the attractive location right on the Poland-Czech border and close proximity to the most beautiful architectural treasures of Cieszyn Silesia: the 11th-century Romanesque Rotunda of St. Nicholas; the 12th-century Keep; and the 14th-century Piast Tower, the highest viewing point in Cieszyn.
 
At the Zamek we believe that design solves problems and designers can offer suggestions about transforming our closest surroundings in order to make our lives better. The Zamek is a great promoter of the idea of Design for All, which involves keeping physical, social and cultural differences in mind. Since 2010 we have been the home of the Professor Michał Oźmin Institute of Design for All and we are the custodians of the EIDD Design for All archive. We support any ideas which can improve the quality of public space and services.
