The representatives of VW Poznan, PSTP and other businesses cooperating with the Park presented their activities and discussed possibilities for working together in various fields.

“Our company emphasises the importance of innovation. We have developed our own Research and Development department. I hope that our meeting today will open new possibilities of cooperating with the companies implementing innovative solutions in production and organisation” ­– said Jens Ocksen, the President of Volkswagen Poznan Sp. z o.o., at the beginning of the meeting.

VW discussed the question of cooperation with the factory, which so far has been growing significantly. They mentioned that there are more and more Polish businesses among the suppliers of goods and services for VW Poznan. While looking for new innovations, VW has noticed some promising companies from the Wielkopolska region.

“It was a stimulating beginning of the day. It initiated cooperation which would be beneficial to both parties. Exchanging business cards was just a symbol of a joint action which will be real. It is very important for our young, creative and ambitious tenants – the businesses which may use the experience of such a prestigious partner – VW Poznan” – said Justyna Cięgotura, Head of Technology Transfer Department of PSTP.

During the breakfast, the participants set a date for the next meeting which will be held with the representatives of the Research and Development department of the Volkswagen Hannover head office.
