Bydgoszcz, the eighth largest city in Poland, located in the centre of the country, provides optimal conditions for BPO/ITO/SSC companies.

With a population of over 1 million people living within a range of 50 km, the availability of skilled labour and high student numbers, the City is quickly becoming recognised as a “BPO rising Star.”

This is reflected in the significant pool of reputable companies that deliver global services from centres located in Bydgoszcz, such as Alcatel-Lucent, Atos IT Services, SDL, Mobica and Genesys, and the headcount within the sector which currently stands at over 7,500 people.

The industry is supported by world class universities in Bydgoszcz and neighbouring Toruń which have a combined 76,000 student population and produce 23,000 graduates each year. The city also offers companies a well-developed infrastructure and improving office stock.

Combining all this with the support provided to investors at every stage of the investment process by the forward thinking Bydgoszcz Regional Development Agency, Bydgoszcz can ASPIRE to become a new Polish BPO hub.

Bydgoszcz, along with neighbouring Toruń, is the joint administrative capital of the Kuyavian-Pomeranian (Kujawsko-Pomorskie) Voivodeship.

Within touching distance of each other, the two cities together provide a compelling offer to companies looking to locate or expand operations in Poland.

The potential of both cities and the potential of the region is promoted through the Kuyavian-Pomeranian regional development agency.
