The Trade and Investment Section of the Consulate General of Poland in New York distinguished Onwelo with a „Friend of the Polish Economy” award. Among the other award recipients was Goldman Sachs, one of the largest investment banks in the world that is developing operations in Poland. The awards were presented during the 4th annual Polish American Business Gala, which took place on February 28th at the Consulate General of Poland in New York. Receiving the award in the name of Onwelo was Aneta Kuczewska, Business Development Manager at the New York office.

This is an important award for us, which shows, that our activities in the United States and the buzz, which we are trying to generate on the IT services market, are strongly resonating. Onwelo is becoming a more recognizable company not only in Poland, but also across the Atlantic, and yet we have been present on the US market for only two years. We are really grateful for this award and we congratulate the other award recipients – said Aneta Kuczewska.

The “Friend of the Polish Economy” is an award the Trade and Investment Section annually presents to Polish companies, which accomplished notable achievements on the American market, as well as to American investors, who have made significant contribution to the development of the Polish economy.

We recognized Onwelo with an award for the fantastically quick pace of their development domestically and abroad, as well as their exemplary entrance onto the American market – with proper preparation, vision, as well as consistently fulling development plans – said Sabina Klimek, consul, counselor, advisor, manager of the Polish Trade and Investment Section in New York.

The Polish-American Business Gala brought together over 200 representatives of New York businesses. Other recipients of the “Friend of the Polish Economy” award include: BetaMed as well as Little Poland Gallery.
