Boeing to open its centre in Poland

The world largest aircraft maker Boeing plans to open its centre for Central and Eastern Europe in Warsaw. The decision gave rise to hopes for further investment, contracts with Polish companies, and also new technology. It was triggered by an increase of competition on the airplane manufacturing market, and the growing popularity of air travel in the region. The American giant faces competition from the rapidly growing European Airbus, as well as Brazil's Embraer whose planes have been bought by Polish national airline LOT. The head of the new centre will be Henryka Bochniarz, ex finance minister.
