Polish innovation on the offensive: from space to medicine – new technologies in the We Did It In Poland campaign

AIRPORT GTS

The Airport GTS system is a state-of-the-art ground traffic surveillance and security support system developed for Warsaw Chopin Airport. The project was initiated by Polskie Porty Lotnicze S.A. (Polish Airports). It enables real-time visualization, localization and identification of objects in the maneuvering field. This is all thanks to the integration of data from various surveillance sources and the use of a multi-radar tracker. It includes safety functions, monitors runways and restricted areas. It also detects potential conflicts between objects as part of RMCA (Runway Monitoring and Conflict Alerting) alerting.

This project proves that in a world of advanced technology and process automation, dialogue, collaboration and understanding of each other’s needs are still crucial to implementing complex systems.

KP LABS

Modern space missions are generating ever-increasing amounts of data, and transmitting it to Earth involves delays, costs and the risk of information loss. The Smart Mission Ecosystem developed by KP Labs enables data processing directly on the satellite, speeding up response to events and reducing bandwidth requirements. With Smart Mission Lab, users can remotely test computing units and choose the right configuration for their mission.

The Smart Mission Ecosystem integrates hardware, software and algorithms into a single cohesive system, eliminating the need to independently integrate components from different vendors. With the Smart Mission Lab platform, rapid and remote testing of computing units is possible.

Nomagic intelligent robots

Nomagic is a Polish company that develops robots supported by artificial intelligence to automate various warehouse processes, such as order picking. Nomagic robots are unique on the market, thanks to the use of advanced artificial intelligence algorithms. They make it possible to identify and lift a variety of objects (even those that the robot has not previously encountered). They can also accurately place jew boxes or baskets, and even detect their own errors. The robots are also characterized by their versatility, being able to lift a wide variety of objects, such as clothes, cosmetics or boxes of electronics.

CoolCryo®

CoolCryo® is a cardiac cryoablation system based on liquid nitrogen as a cooling medium. Liquid nitrogen is the commonly used and cheapest cooling medium, and its use significantly reduces the cost of surgery. With a heated and moldable tip, procedures are performed faster. The entire system, together with the cryoapplicator, is ultimately intended for minimally invasive full-thickness cardiac cryoablation. Surgical ablation is used to treat cardiac arrhythmias.

Arrhythmia is a heart rhythm disorder and one of the most common complaints of patients presenting to cardiology offices. Its occurrence, depending on the type, can lead to circulatory failure and significantly increases the risk of stroke.

FEYENALLY

Feyenally has developed the eyeTEST app, the world’s first solution for objective eye refraction testing using only a smartphone. By using advanced AI algorithms and analyzing eye images, users can self-check for vision defects (e.g. nearsightedness, farsightedness) without a specialist. This scalable, low-cost and globally available tool addresses the growing need for remote eye care.

Feyenally’s innovation addresses the global problem of lack of access to basic eye care – more than 1 billion people lack the opportunity for an eye exam, and 670 million are at risk of losing their vision due to uncorrected refractive errors.

Treat failure as a given, not as an assessment of your worth, says Katarzyna Mlynarczyk, creator of Rebread

Millions of tons of bread are wasted every day in Europe - a product that for centuries has been a symbol of value and everyday life. For Catherine Mlynarczyk, however, this was not the end of history, but the beginning of innovation. In an interview, she tells us how the courage to experiment and redefine failure gave birth to Rebread, a startup that turns waste into healthy drinks and offers hope for a more sustainable future.

Poland’s economy is growing in strength. Now it’s time for the world to recognize our innovative potential

Poland has taken a huge step forward - it has already ranked 20th among the world's largest economies, and our GDP has exceeded $1 trillion for the first time. This is a landmark event and a symbol of the success we have built over three decades of hard work, courage and openness to change.

Innovation is born out of challenges – an interview with Renata Krzykawska, co-founder of LifeGel

Renata Krzykawska is the co-founder and leader of Real Research, a Polish company that has pioneered the development of 3D cell culture tools and services. In an interview with us, Renata talks about the beliefs she had to overcome, her moments of doubt and the strength that comes from the support of loved ones. She also talks about what success and failure mean to her, and what is most important when building something truly groundbreaking.

Success tastes much better if it is achieved after a series of setbacks, says Malodobra-Mazur, PhD.

Dr. Małgorzata Małodobra-Mazur has been combining science and practice for years, proving that innovations are not born in isolation, but in response to specific medical needs. Co-founder and Director of Research and Development at Genomtec S.A., she is the co-creator of solutions that bring genetic diagnostics closer to the patient - making fast and precise diagnosis available not only in laboratories, but also where every minute counts.
