Not only in Pomerania, but also in the whole country. The development of transport infrastructure, optimisation of sea, road and inland waterway transport, modernisation of ports and terminals are the key topics of the Transport Week conference, which are also important from the point of view of Olivia, the largest business hub in northern Poland, where more than 500 companies, including those from the logistics industry, operate today – emphasizes Agnieszka Zglinicka, Project Director at Olivia Business Centre, host of the event in Olivia – We are already looking closely at the New Silk Road initiative. It is said that Poland can gain a lot from the project connecting China and Europe with transport corridors. Our location is conducive to this. According to experts, Poland may become a guide for Chinese exporters to the markets of the European Union. – Adds.
