The 60 Million Congress in Miami will be held on February 9-10 2018. This will be the fifth Global Polonia Summit that will take place in the sunny Florida.
The 60 Million Congress is a global gathering of entrepreneurs connected to the Polish diaspora. The idea behind the congress is to integrate and connect professionals, executives and business leaders who are linked to Poland or Polish communities internationally. The name of the congress corresponds with the overall number of Poles and people of Polish descent that are located in the home country and all over the world. The celebration of 100 years of Polish Independence in 2018 is a great opportunity to discuss Poland’s position in the world today and it’s international relations especially in the context of global economics.
The guiding intention of the congress organizers is to provide a meeting platform to exchange ideas, initiate discussions and provide solutions that will lead to further development of the Polish – American and international business relationships. In 2018 two editions of the Congress will be held. The first congress will take place on February 9-10 at the Eden Roc Hotel in Miami Beach and the second edition will be held on August 30-31 at G2A Arena – the Congress and Exhibition Centre of the Podkarpackie Region in Rzeszow.
We strongly believe that the 60 mln Congress will constitute a platform for international and intergenerational communication, which in turn will promote a closer collaboration between the Polish, American and world wide communities.
The agenda of both events revolves around the panel formula, preceded by a introductory presentation. The topics covered throughout include:
