Historical view
Poland was different from other comunistic countries. Many family run businesses active throughcomunism times,
Law on running business – (Wilczek Law) – extremely liberal law on running business from1 January 1989 (before transformation) - Everything that is not illigal is allowed in running a business
1989 first companies created – now – time for succession
Nowadays we have 1,7 mln of active companies (7th place in EU, 42 companies for 1000 economicallyactive inhabitants)
Running a business is not a march from one success to anotherbut raising up after failures
/ Jan Jabłkowski
