Has the internet become as important to us as electricity or water? The latest Tech4Society 2025 report prepared by the Digital Poland Foundation leaves no doubt: as many as 76% of Poles believe that digital connectivity is a critical infrastructure, without which it is difficult to imagine everyday life.
Together with Jacek Kozłowski, Vice-President of the Supreme Audit Office, we introduced the participants of the 52nd PIKE Conference in Łódź to a discussion on digital communications for uniformed services (PPDR). The conversation was extremely necessary and showed, based on the NIK report and analyses by the Digital Poland Foundation, that Poland must finally move from plans to implementation. Failure to act threatens us with a real security crisis.
The Digital Poland Foundation has been supporting older people in discovering new technologies for years. Thanks to the ‘Modern Senior’ initiative, thousands of senior citizens have overcome their fears and taken their first steps into the digital world. The 6th edition of the ‘Modern Senior 2025’ guide has just been published, enriched with new content and updates. We are also launching a campaign across Poland. Together, we will train over 6,000 people.
The 7th edition of the Digital Festival kicks off on 1 October! We have six weeks of meetings, workshops and initiatives ahead of us under the slogan #PołączeniMożemyWięcej (Together we can do more). It is the largest event in Poland dedicated to innovation and digitalisation, organised by the Digital Poland foundation.
On September 30, 2025, a unique event on artificial intelligence titled "Poland and Lithuania - AI opportunities: global and regional trends, experts and SMEs perspective" will be held in Vilnius.
In the latest issue of Newsweek, you can read an interview with Piotr Mieczkowski on the conclusions of the Ringier Axel Springer Polska report on Poles' attitudes toward artificial intelligence. You will learn who fears it and who sees it as an opportunity. The interview also discusses how AI affects our lives and work.
For the second time, we will honor the best European products, investors, researchers or policymakers who are shaping AI policy, and entertainers who are creating communities that contribute to the development of artificial intelligence.
The structure of the document and recommendations remains largely unchanged from the previous draft, but the final version includes more clarification on what qualifies as an 'accessible to minors' service, and softens some of the wording on platform defaults, offering a little more flexibility in implementation.
We have joined the PW eSkills initiative, implemented by the Ministry of Digitalisation. This is another step to support the development of digital competences of Poles, building a modern economy and increasing the number of ICT specialists in Poland.
