INTRODUCTION


Poznań this is a very good place for organizing congress of conference. It has a location at the crossroads of traffic routes from Paris in the west, through Berlin and Warsaw to Moscow in the east (the international route A2) and from the Balkans in the south through the Baltic Sea to Scandinavia in the north (the international route A5). The city has international air connection with Dusseldorf, Dresden, Hanover, Leipzig, Copenhagen (on Autumn starting a new connection with Brussels and maybe with Zurich), as well as some domestic and international connections through Warsaw. Poznań lies halfway between Warsaw and Berlin and is 81 miles from the German border. Travel on an Euro-City train from Poznań to Berlin takes less than three hours (five trains a day).

Poznań is a trade capital of Poland. This status which the city enjoys is due to the Poznań International Fair. Every year, it organizes nearly 30 different trade fairs and exhibitions, which welcome about 15,000 exhibitors, one fourth of which are foreign firms, while the number of visitors to the Fair reaches 1,000,000. Poznań is the second largest banking and business centre in Poland after Warsaw. The number of banks rose dynamically and has reached over 50 Polish and foreign banks as well as several insurance companies operating in the city. To Polish and foreign companies, economic chambers, trade associations, trade unions and professional organisations, community groups, research institutes, artistic associations, advertising and public relations agencies we offer to hire and make use of modern and well-equipped halls for congresses, conventions, conferences, symposia, seminars, training courses and presentations. All halls are situated in the very centre of Poznań, within a short distance of the railway station, bus station and Poznań airport.
