Analysis of key changes for business managers

We have analyzed the proposed changes to criminal procedure, which introduce a new structure for conducting proceedings, moving away from the current, restrictive model. The foundation of the amendment is the liberalization of regulations and the strengthening of procedural guarantees for suspects, which is a direct response to the need to implement EU directives and restore the adversarial standard.

What is a family foundation under Polish law?

Publication date: November 12, 2025

A family foundation is a relatively new institution in Polish law, introduced two years ago by the Act of January 26, 2023, on Family Foundations. The ability to establish such an entity was introduced primarily to enable entrepreneurs to secure the succession of their businesses in an undivided form, as well as to ensure the implementation of their own vision for managing them even longer after the founder’s death. Only a natural person with full legal capacity can be the founder of a family foundation. They can establish the foundation and designate its beneficiaries—themselves, relatives, or public benefit organizations—in their will or deed of incorporation. Both deeds should be executed by a notary. Unlike an Anglo-Saxon trust, a family foundation is not a legal relationship but a separate legal entity. Upon establishment, it acquires legal capacity and becomes a so-called “imperfect legal person.”

The development of artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence is an interdisciplinary field of knowledge combining elements of computer science, mathematics, statistics, neuroscience, and cognitive science. Its goal is to create systems capable of performing tasks that previously required human intelligence. This includes the ability to learn from data, reason, make decisions, recognize patterns, and process and generate natural language. Unlike traditional programming, in which a computer executes strictly defined instructions, artificial intelligence aims to grant machines a degree of autonomy, allowing them to independently adapt their strategies to changing conditions. Today, AI is no longer an abstract theoretical concept, but a practical tool.

Foreign individual investors in the prospectus of shares of the e-commerce industry – principles of investing in securities in Poland

On November 17, 2021, Pracuj.pl group, a leader in the digital recruitment market, operating in Poland, offering services to support the recruitment, retention and development of employees has published a prospectus with a view to conducting an initial public offering of the Company’s shares and their admission to trading on the main market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The offer covered up to 22,380,626 existing shares with each share having a nominal value of PLN 5 – representing 32.86% of the share capital. The maximum price has been set at PLN 82 per share.

Book building

Before the sale of shares takes place, the company conducts book-building, which is a key process in determining the share issue price. The book of demand thus involves the collection of non-binding information from potential institutional investors on their interest in acquiring the securities in question. The key stage affecting book building is the acceptance of subscriptions from potential investors, and on the basis of the interest in the offer the company determines the issue price and the final number of shares.
