Madeleine Albright, former U.S. Secretary of State, and one of the world's most respected political leaders, will be the Special Guest of the 5th ABSL Conference to be held on May 22nd-23rd 2014 in Poznań. The event, the main partner of which is the City of Poznań, is one of the highlights of Poland's economic calendar and is dedicated to one of the most powerful industries in the Polish economy - the business service sector. Madeleine Albright, who has a strong connection with this part of Europe, is perfectly positioned to offer insight on how the Polish economy  can tap into its full potential. This topic, which will be explored during the ABSL event, is especially relevant in  2014 as the country marks the anniversaries of two of the most pivotal events in recent Polish history the June 4th elections and EU accession.

The Annual ABSL Conference, this year held for the 5th time, is fast becoming a major platform for political and business leaders to discuss the strategy of the Polish economy's further development.

At the event, ABSL will also celebrate five years of its operations, during which the Polish business services sector has made an incredible leap forward to become the most dynamically developing branch of the Polish economy.  With foreign-capital service centers already employing 120,000 professionals and generating 15-20,000 new vacancies per year, this is the industry that can make the largest contribution not only to the labor marker but also to the overall strength and innovativeness of the Polish economy. It is also the industry that can position Poland to be the global leader.
