Poland will serve as Visa’s fifth major strategic global Technology and Product Hub. As a growing location for top technology talent, it builds on Visa’s commitment to innovation and investment in the European region, and in Poland, in particular. Visa will find new ways to harness emerging talent in the region, accelerate product development and innovate at scale to bring value to consumers, clients, buyers and sellers around the world.

In Poland, this will mean bringing on board a diverse talent pool and welcoming talent from Ukraine and other parts of the region.”
“It is exceptionally good news that Visa, with its unique global experience and know-how, has chosen our country out of all possible locations, thus building Poland's position as the best place for investments in the new technology sector,” said Prime Minister of Poland, Mateusz Morawiecki. “Some of the factors that pointed to Poland as a location for this investment were the high qualifications of our IT staff and the significant pool of talent on the labor market. We have great potential to bring highly innovative investments to our country."
Visa has been at the forefront of digital payments for more than 60 years, operating in Poland since 1995. The first payment card in Poland was a Visa card and since the early digital days, Visa innovations have underpinned many of the ways that consumers and merchants pay and are paid. With Visa as a driving force in digital payments, Poland became the first market in the world to achieve 100% contactless availability.
Visa recognizes the critical role that digital skills play in the modern economy and is committed to supporting the EU’s efforts to build a more competitive and digitally savvy workforce.1 This investment underscores Visa’s pledge to promote digital inclusion and empower individuals to thrive in the digital age.
