Business Mission in Graz, Austria

10/03/2017

From March 1st to 3rd, 2017, representatives of Firma Tarapata Sp. z o.o. participated in a business mission held in Graz, Austria.

The event was organized by the Marshal’s Office of the Podkarpackie Voivodeship as part of the “Economic Promotion of the Podkarpackie Region” project, co-financed by the European Union.

During the mission, participants had the opportunity to meet with leadership from ACstyria Autocluster, a Styrian organization that exemplifies effective cooperation between business, industry, and scientific research. The cluster brings together over 250 companies from the automotive, aerospace, and rail transport sectors.

The meetings provided an excellent opportunity for Tarapata Sp. z o.o. to present its operations and demonstrate readiness for potential partnerships. The company's representatives exchanged insights and identified shared interests and possible paths for industrial collaboration—particularly within the automotive sector. Clear outlines of expectations and cooperation terms were established during the discussions.

An important highlight of the mission was Firma Tarapata’s participation in the ceremony appointing Mr. Manfred Kainz as the new Honorary Consul of the Republic of Poland in Styria. Mr. Kainz is the founder and owner of TCM, which also operates in Poland, with a branch in Polkowice.

The event was honored by the presence of several distinguished guests, including: Artur Lorkowski, Ambassador of the Republic of Poland to Austria Bogdan Romaniuk, Deputy Marshal of the Podkarpackie Voivodeship Henryk Czubek, Head of the Trade and Investment Promotion Section at the Polish Embassy in Vienna Hermann Schützenhöfer, Governor of the State of Styria Numerous high-ranking Austrian officials and institutional representatives.

The post-ceremony networking sessions offered valuable opportunities to establish business relationships and engage in direct dialogue with companies from the Styrian region.

We are optimistic that these fruitful meetings will lead to future cooperation between Firma Tarapata Sp. z o.o. and the ACstyria Autocluster.
