I have been an Associate of the Polish Australian Business Forum since April 2023 and was elected to the internal committee in May 2023, elected vice-President in August 2023 and took over the role of president from Tym Pieglowski, in April 2024.

It brings me much joy to now carry on the vision that the founding members of PABF had to create such an esteemed community of accomplished polish business women and men both across our chapters in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia as well as in Poland.

PABF now nearing 10years since its establishment, is a strong dedicated group of now over 100 businesses ready to support each other and those who wish to do business in Poland and the Polish businesses who wish to commence operations in Australia. Our network spans across various sectors including building infrastructure, logistics, renewable energy, transport, finance, legal, accounting, services consulting, marketing, IT, tourism, sport, food & beverage and tertiary education.

We have a dedicated internal committee, a strong advisory board and support of the Polish Investment and Trade Agency, EABC, SBS, Poland Innovative and Innovate Australia and greatly appreciate each and every one of our event sponsors who commit their funding and time to further enhance our business community.

Over the coming year we will be celebrating PABF’s 10 year anniversary, engaging more with our Associates over curated events to enrich your experience as an Associate member, sharing resources and knowledge to help our Associates’ businesses develop and expand. I am excited to be PABF’s President and will ensure with the support of the committee, Jakub Wilchelm, vice-President and Tom Murmylo - Treasurer that the excellent service our Associates provide to the Polish – Australian community is matched with excellent service from us. Please reach out to me at president@pabf.com.au if there is anything I can do to support you. I look forward to partnering with you and your businesses in the coming year.
