On 7 August, Confindustria Polonia drew companies' attention to the thirty-fifth edition of the Karpacz Economic Forum, to be held from 8 to 10 September 2026 at the Hotel Gołębiewski in Lower Silesia and organised by the Institute for Eastern Studies. This year's title, «The Architecture of the New Order – Stability in Times of Change», states the event's ambition: to read the shifts in international geopolitical and economic balances. The 2025 edition drew over 6,000 participants and more than 600 events across panels and plenary sessions. At the centre of the discussion are economic security and industrial competitiveness, with reshoring and nearshoring as levers for more robust supply chains, energy and the transition, and artificial intelligence.
