The GIC offers the best B2B opportunities to reach industry professionals from Poland and most of the Central and Eastern Europe. The B2B exhibition zone, although located in the proximity of the B2C area of the PGA Expo tradeshow, is separated and offers an excellent environment for meeting developers and business partners.

A professionally organized meeting area with a Meet to Match meeting system allows for well-organized sessions with just the proper business partners you are looking for. It also hosts the Japan+Eastern Europe Networking Event. The Business Lounge offers a place to sit down and chill out or to have a casual conversation. It also serves meals during lunch hours and coffee, soft drinks and snacks non-stop.

Finally, the networking events planned for each evening are designed to include space to sit and talk as well as to taste Polish foods and drinks.

GeekCareers is one of the latest additions to the GIC. It started in 2016, with seven companies searching for employees for their Polish and international offices. Its success exceeded our expectations and hopes. Recruiting companies reported that they have met many candidates, both Polish and foreign, on all levels of expertise, starting from juniors and students, but also reaching into the group of experienced seniors and leads. The best success story is four new employees for an individual company only from this event. One of the biggest advantages of GeekCareers is high availability for potential candidates, both in terms of ticket pricing and the time – the event is happening over the weekend.

At the GIC we believe in the learning value of talks and we think that the content of presentations and meetings is more important than big names. Due to our unique marking of the presentation difficulty level (1 - basic, 2 - intermediate, 3 - advanced), we are looking for talks that will provide useful insight even to developers with years of experience. Speaker candidates have to go through an advanced and rigorous submission and review system, while our Advisory Board is working hard to verify the potential value of every talk.

And it pays off: the GIC is seen as a major teaching event with talks of only the best quality.
