After the meeting, in the evening the Jubilee Industry Evening for the PIAP Members was held, during which the 15th anniversary of the Chamber was celebrated.

“I am very happy that I will be able to participate in the continuation of the work initiated in the previous term. Taking into account the 15th anniversary of our organisation, I am aware of how much has been done but also of enormous challenges we face. The number of people wishing to build the image of PIAP, by running for the Management Board or supporting the work of the Management Board, is very encouraging. This proves that the best interests of our Association are important for all of us, and at the same time guarantees the achievement of the assumed goals“, says Jacek Kozłowski, the new President of the Polish Chamber of Promotional Products.

“Today, the Polish Chamber of Promotional Products brings together more than 180 companies which, despite the difficulties, operate and grow dynamically! Recent years have proven that associated companies are characterised not only by creativity, but also by courage both in making decisions and in operating. Together, we are fighting for a better tomorrow and for a greater role of advertising gifts – we will seek to make marketers aware of the great potential they have, how many positive feelings and associations they entail. Thank you very much for your votes and trust and I wish all of us success in this jubilee year of the 15th anniversary of PIAP“, says Edyta Lisowska, Vice President of the Polish Chamber of Promotional Products.
