The Polish Tourism Organisation honoured 21 business entities and 9 municipal and regional convention bureaux as part of its recommendation programme for convention bureaux, professional congress organisers, and incentive travel organisers.
For over 20 years, the Polish Tourism Organisation has been implementing recommendation programmes that play an important role in attracting international events to Poland. Following the successful verification of documents submitted to the programme, certificates for 2025-2026 were awarded to 21 business entities (some in dual categories) and 9 convention bureaux. Among the recipients were four new entities: Dream Events (Katowice), Work Group (Wrocław), Bydgoszcz Convention Bureau and Silesia Convention Bureau.
The President of PTO, Rafał Szmytke, stressed the importance of this programme in his address: “We are very happy that the recommended entities show numerous activities that prove their professionalism, such as certificates and membership in international associations or organisations, industry awards, as well as efforts undertaken in the spirit of sustainable development.”
“PTO-recommended convention bureaux and business entities specialising in the organisation of events can count on the support of Poland Convention Bureau PTO when it comes to participation in fairs, as well as training sessions and industry events in Poland and abroad. I would like to congratulate all the honorees and wish them great success in attracting meetings and events to Poland. At the same time, I would like to thank the Copernicus Science Centre for supporting and co-creating today’s interactive Eventprofs Creators Lab with the IMEX Group Team,” added President Szmytke.
