Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk established the Council for the Future, a group of experts to accelerate economic and scientific development.
Council Purpose and Vision
Prime Minister Donald Tusk introduced the Council for the Future, acknowledging that while the name may seem pompous, it effectively captures their intention. Tusk expressed deep belief that the future belongs to Poland, noting the growing positive perception of Poland both domestically and internationally.
“Our future needs acceleration when it comes to the economy, business, science, flexibility and modernity, when it comes to procedures,” Tusk stated during Tuesday’s conference.
Council Composition
The Council consists of individuals who “don’t complain about lack of success in business, science, creating new reality,” according to Tusk. Members include those who have “conquered space,” can produce highly valued satellites, and scientists who know how to transform science into business.
The Council primarily includes younger people with greater achievements than politicians, though it also considers promising young adults who already impress with their preparation, intellect and ideas.
Economic Goals
Finance Minister Andrzej Domański highlighted that Poland, currently the 20th largest economy in the world and participant in G20 discussions, has ambitions for more growth. The Council will present solutions and tools to accelerate the Polish economy’s development.
Members include representatives from key sectors essential for building the long-term competitiveness of the Polish economy.
Council Members
The Chancellery of the Prime Minister published the full list of Council members, including Dominik Batorski (data science expert), Grzegorz Brona (co-founder of Creotech Instruments), Sebastian Kondracki (digital transformation expert), and others from fields like artificial intelligence, biotechnology, space exploration, and modern defense industries.
