The organisers chose the fair's theme of "strength", to represent the developing Polish market, which is not only growing in economic terms, but is also acting as a "bridge linking the eastern and western entrepreneurs".

This motto will shape a series of lectures and discussion panels that will be taking place during the four days of the fair.
