Poland national branding initiative
Entities: Barbara Mróz‑Gorgoń · Tour de Pologne · Government of Poland · Donald Tusk · Jarosław Kaczyński
Overview
In late July 2026 the Polish government created a new office to promote a unified "Poland Brand". Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced the appointment of Professor Barbara Mróz‑Gorgoń as Government Plenipotentiary for national brand promotion, consolidating fragmented ministry efforts into a single programme that will develop a branding strategy, visual standards and a “Brand Book”. The initiative aims to boost tourism, attract foreign investment and improve Poland’s international image without requiring additional budget.
The following day the post of commissioner for the Poland brand was formally launched, with Mróz‑Gorgóń tasked with coordinating funding and enhancing the country's reputation abroad. Simultaneously, former prime minister Mateusz Morawiecki announced a new parliamentary caucus that could become the third‑largest bloc in the Sejm, underscoring internal divisions within the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party. While the branding effort focuses on economic and diplomatic goals, the political split provides a backdrop of parliamentary reshaping.
