Trends to watch

— According to an analysis by Oxford Economics, global economic development related to the AI boom is concentrated only in some technology cenrets. While Europe may not be the main beneficiary in 2026, cities in Central and Eastern Europe, including Warsaw, are wel-lpositionedto use AI to increase productivity. — An analysis by the Polish Economic Institute(PEI, Polski Instytut Ekonomiczny ) from 2025, on the other hand, shows that in Poland, AI is used by only 6% to 16% of enterprises, depending on the study methodology adopted. According to PEI, construction is one of the industries with low use of AI. A key challenge in 2026 will be to promote the use of AI across a wider spectrum of non-IT sectors to stay competitive . — Polish cities are strengthening their position, with Warsaw at the forefront, emerging as one of the fastest growing cities in the region. According to Oxford Economics' predictions, in 2026 Warsaw will be the leader in GDP growth in Europe , thanks in part to the growing IT and business services sectors. — Economic growth in Poland in recent years has been largely based on the availability of well -educated workers and lower salaries than iontherEU countries. The potential for growth in these areas is slowly being exhausted. Maintaining the growth rate will require increasing expenditure on innovation and creating conditions for the development of domestic enterprises. — Poland faces demographic challenges, with an ageing population and a projected decline in the number of employees. As a result, it will be necessary to look for new solutions, such as AI automation and active migration policies. The real estate market will gradually provide more and more spaces adapted to the needs of the elderly.
