The Wa³brzych Special Economic Zone "INVEST-PARK" was established in 1997 and covers 174 communes located in 3 Voivodeships of south-western Poland (Dolno¶l±skie, Opolskie and Wielkopolskie Voivodships). Thanks to the investments of global giants such as Toyota, Mercedes, Volkswagen, 3M, Umicore or Capchem, not only the automotive and electromobility industries are developing in south-west Poland, but also related industries such as metalworking, plastics processing and the chemical industry, as well as logistics services for these industries. Almost 50% of the companies operating in the WSEZ are representatives of micro, small and medium business. The Wa³brzych Special Economic Zone "INVEST-PARK" is especially recommended for locating investments in Europe and appreciated for the quality and comprehensive service provided to entrepreneurs. The WSEZ "INVEST-PARK" was also awarded for the dynamics of development of companies that have located their plants in it. First of all, another Toyota Motor Manufacturing Poland project gained recognition. Thanks to the investments of the Japanese concern, Poland has become the second center, apart from Asia, producing modern hybrid drives.
