Craftsmanship presented by BMW Individual. Solitaire and Master Class Edition based on the new BMW 750Li xDrive
Munich, Germany - May 24, 2016 - Building the best automobile always was and still is BMW's primary motivation. However, even the best vehicle can always be attuned even more individually to the customer's personal preferences. It is precisely for this reason that BMW Individual Manufactory has been synonymous with individualisation of the highest level for more than 20 years now. The BMW Individual Manufactory not only realises exclusive one-off items, but also develops and produces market-specific editions and special models - notable examples being cooperative partnerships with the well-known watchmaker Girard Perregaux, the world-famous concert piano maker Steinway & Sons or the tradition-steeped silver manufactory ROBBE & BERKING. Along with the BMW Individual Manufactory, the BMW Individual Collection completes the BMW Individual product range.

Buick Cascada - amerykański hit z polskiej fabryki Opla w Gliwicach
Gliwice - 26 maja 2016 - Cascada - nowy kabriolet Opla na każdą porę roku - to stylowy, czteroosobowy samochód o eleganckiej, wydłużonej sylwetce z wysokiej jakości miękkim dachem. Cascada, uznawana przez Opla za jeden z wiodących produktów w ofercie firmy, jest średniej wielkości kabrioletem wyróżniającym się nie tylko wielkością, lecz także atrakcyjnymi, zaawansowanymi rozwiązaniami technologicznymi oraz bogactwem funkcji. Zaoceaniczna wersja Opla Astry w wersji kabriolet sprzedawana jako Buick Cascada cieszy się naprawdę dużym zainteresowaniem w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Tylko w kwietniu 2016 model wybrało 2487 kierowców. To znaczący wynik, wykraczający poza przewidywania producenta, zwłaszcza że średnia miesięczna sprzedaż wszystkich modeli Buicka to niespełna 9 tysięcy egzemplarzy. Co ciekawe, aż 64 procent nabywców Cascady nie tylko nie miało wcześniej Buicka, ale też nie posiadało pojazdu General Motors. Model produkowany w Gliwicach odbiera klientów w USA m.in. takim firmom jak Audi, Toyota czy Honda.

John Baird, Raytheon Integrated Defence Systems: Realizujemy z polskimi firmami program Poland Patriot
Warszawa - 24 maja 2016 - "Będziemy mogli przyspieszyć dostawy kolejnych baterii, w zmodernizowanej wersji, którą nazwaliśmy Poland Patriot. W minionych miesiącach odnotowaliśmy znaczny postęp w rozmowach z polskimi przedsiębiorstwami nt. ich udziału w realizacji kontraktu. Obejmuje on nie tylko produkcję poszczególnych komponentów systemu - radarów, pocisków, wyrzutni, pojazdów, kontenerów, stanowiska dowodzenia, systemów łączności, ale także znaczący transfer technologii w celu wspólnego opracowywania kolejnych, coraz to nowocześniejszych wersji patriota. Do chwili obecnej podpisaliśmy 35 listów intencyjnych i osiem kontraktów. Na przykład pracujemy już z warszawskim PIT-Radwar nad anteną identyfikacji "swój-obcy" (IFF), a z bydgoskim Teldatem - nad routerami do celów wojskowych. Dzięki takiemu podejściu co najmniej 50 procent wartości naszego kontraktu wróci do Polski w postaci zamówień w polskich przedsiębiorstwach. Co więcej, eksport do innych krajów może przynieść sumę 2-5 krotnie wyższą." - pisze John Baird, wiceprezes ds. zintegrowanych systemów obrony przeciwlotniczej i przeciwrakietowej na Polskę w spółce Raytheon Integrated Defence Systems (ang. Raytheon's vice president of Poland Integrated Air and Missile Defence).

Cel: Polska w prestiżowej grupie krajów G20
Warszawa - 12 maja 2016 - "Posiadanie strategicznego celu motywuje do podejmowania wysiłku rozwojowego. Tymczasem od lat Polska takiego celu nie ma. Mogłoby nim być dołączenie do prestiżowej grupy krajów G20. Państwa G20 składają się na około 90 procent światowego PKB i 80 procent światowej wymiany handlowej. Jest to grupa krajów, która decyduje o bardzo wielu kwestiach dotyczących całego świata. Członkostwo Polski wiązałoby się z większym prestiżem naszego kraju na arenie międzynarodowej, wzrostem zaufania do naszej gospodarki oraz szansą na stanie się prawdziwym, uznanym liderem naszego regionu" - piszą na łamach dziennika Rzeczpospolita profesor dr hab.
