The panel took place at 13:30 and brought together distinguished representatives of the scientific and business communities.
Participants in the discussion included:
Piotr Wachowiak, Rector, SGH Warsaw School of Economics
Leszek Stypułkowski, Management Board Member, Bank Gospodarstwa Krajowego

Iwona Kurz, Dean of the Faculty of Polish Studies, University of Warsaw

Although Kacper Prokop did not sit on the panel, his participation as a guest provided an excellent opportunity to connect with other PhD students, including those in implementation programs. It was a unique platform for exchanging perspectives between the scientific and business communities, making the event highly valuable.
Additionally, Kacper took part in the “Youth Forum” sessions, which served as a space for inspiring discussions. Topics addressed during the forum included artificial intelligence, the war in Ukraine, and global warming, and the presence of thought leaders in these areas ensured that the conversations were rich in substantive content.
