To determine the location patterns of FDI in Poland, the following data set on foreign investors in the country will be used, including their country-of-origin and industrial classification and their location within Poland — down to the level of sub-region of Polish administration. The goal of this study will be to measure the degree of geographic concentration of foreign firms across the voivodships (and, where warranted by the scale of intensity, also across powiats,1 sub-regions) and attempt to determine causes of concentration of FDI according to both industrial activity class and country-of-origin of the investment, while investigating their potential for future ability to attract foreign investment into the regions. A further goal would be to examine the existence and development of industrial trajectories and the level of proximity between the leading firms and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) investing in Poland.
