SPECIALISATION, SPACE, QUALITY OF LIFE – BYDGOSZCZ ATTRACTS INVESTMENTS FROM THE BPO/SSC INDUSTRY
The concept of the city open to outsour cing, consistently implemented by the City of Bydgoszcz and the Bydgoszcz Regional Development Agency (BARR) for the deve lopment and promotion of the modern business services sector, has so far brought positive effects. Around 60 BPO, SSC, IT, and R&D service centres already operate here, and the number of jobs in the sector currently exceeds 11,000 of which over 80% is gene- rated by IT services. Such strong local specialisation is a definite distinguishing feature of Bydgoszcz in comparison to other cities in Poland – which is emphasized in a report from ABSL Modern Business Services Sector in Poland 2020 published in June this year, in which Bydgoszcz was included among the leading cities important for the development of the BPO/SSC market in the country.

For several years, Bydgoszcz has been a strong point on the map of modern business services in Poland and an important location for the development of further investments in this market. This is confirmed by both the growing indicators of the sector's development in the City and the latest industry reports which place Bydgoszcz among the leading locations on the domestic BPO/SSC market.
