A resident of Olivia Business Centre, Invest in Pomerania, has launched a new project dedicated to the economic promotion of the Pomeranian Voivodeship. Invest in Pomerania is a regional non-profit initiative that helps foreign investors implement investment projects in Pomerania. Since 2011, there have been as many as 77 such investments! As a result, approx. 12,000 new jobs.

“The Pomeranian Voivodeship – an ideal place to work, develop and live” is the motto of the new promotional project of the Invest in Pomerania initiative. The aim of the several-year-long information campaign carried out under the slogan “Live more. Pomerania” is to attract new employees and retain potential employees in Pomerania.

The “Live more. Pomerania” will primarily use a website to communicate with it, serving as a reliable source of information about work and life in Pomerania, as well as social media, profiles to show the greatest advantages of the region from the perspective of its residents. In addition, the organizers will prepare promotional materials that will be distributed during selected job fairs in the province and beyond.

– The project “Live more. Pomerania” is just starting, but we invite you to visit our profile on Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. The creation of the Polish, English and Russian-language website will take a few more weeks, we want the portal to comprehensively present reliable information about the region, answer all possible questions that may arise at the time of making a decision to move. says Wojciech Tyborowski, Director of Invest in Pomerania (ARP S.A.). “The idea to create such a place on the web came after conversations with many companies that reported that their potential employees do not know where they can get their knowledge about the region from and often feel lost even after arriving at the site.

“Pomerania is the third most popular region in Poland. That is why more and more people, not only from our country, want to move to us. comments Mieczysław Struk, Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship. “What’s more, the Pomeranian Voivodeship has recently recorded great economic results, which are conducive to making a decision to live here. Low unemployment at the level of 5.9 per cent, a record number of 12,000 job offers reported by the Provincial Labour Office in August and a record number of declared jobs created by investors – confirm the accuracy of the choice.

Economic development naturally entails an increasing demand for new workers from various industries and with different educational backgrounds. The search for them more and more often goes beyond the Pomeranian Voivodeship.

Living, working and studying

The Pomeranian Voivodeship has been beating the rankings in the quality of life category for years. According to research, as many as 73.7% of people are satisfied with life in the region, and as many as 86% of Tri-City residents describe their quality of life as high, these are the best results in Poland! Why? Residents point primarily to the natural values of the province (after all, not every region can boast of, m.in, 316 km of coastline, 2901 lakes or 2000 km of bicycle paths!), cultural events and festivals.

In recent years, the region has also become one of the strongest players in the IT and modern business services market, which opens up unique career paths for potential employees. Thanks to numerous investments from companies such as m.in. Intel, Amazon, Lufthansa Systems, State Street or Swarovski), the Tri-City labour market is very absorptive – the unemployment rate here remains below the national average.

Also, 85% of students describe their decision to study in the Tri-City as a good one, and there are diverse, modern fields of study waiting for them at Pomeranian universities.

– Why “Live more. Pomerania”? Because you live more here. We experience this every day and we know that this slogan touches the heart of the quality and energy of life in our region. We also invite residents and employers to share their experience and co-create the project and promote the province – adds Łukasz Żelewski, President of the Management Board of IDA S.A.
