The Port of Gdansk holds a pre-eminent position in the development strategy of the Gdansk Pomerania region. Operating at the intersection of economies and cultures of the neighbouring countries, it has on many occasions initiated trade and investment cooperation to the benefit of both western companies planning to launch their operation in our area as well as domestic businesses seeking to enter foreign markets. Likewise, presently - through its Düsseldorf-based agency - the Port of Gdansk Authority SA has brought together businesses representing the Pomeranian region and the economic milieu of North Rhine-Westphalia. For two days, the Tricity was playing host to a group of consultants associated with Germany's governmental agency - NRW INWEST GmbH. Their sessions held with the Gdansk Business Club, the Port of Gdansk Authority SA and the Pomerania regional authorities focused predominantly on the current legal, financial and administrative issues that have to be taken into consideration while establishing business contacts.
