On May 27–28, representatives of our IT Cluster, Magda Ławicka (opens in a new tab) and Marta Lamenta (opens in a new tab), participated in the largest technology conference in Central and Eastern Europe – Infoshare 2025 (opens in a new tab) in Gdańsk. This annual event, which attracts thousands of innovation, startup, and new technology enthusiasts, once again delivered plenty of inspiration and valuable experiences.

A particularly impactful talk was delivered by Jowita Michalska (opens in a new tab), who addressed the topic of technological convergence – the blurring of boundaries between different fields, such as AI and biotechnology – and the broader societal implications of technology. In her presentation, she highlighted the concept of living intelligence, emphasizing that even the most advanced algorithms cannot replicate human physicality, sensory perception of the world, subtle nuances of interpersonal communication, or authentic emotional responses.
She went on to discuss humanoid robots, citing the CLONE project as an example – a cutting-edge robot built on a synthetic skeleton that faithfully replicates human anatomy. This skeleton consists of 206 artificial bones, matching the number of bones in the human body, and represents a breakthrough in efforts to realistically mimic human movement and structure. She also mentioned revolutionary applications of nanobots in medicine, which are already being used for targeted drug delivery, disease diagnostics, and fighting cancer at the cellular level.
However, her talk was not limited to an enthusiastic showcase of technological achievements. She also clearly pointed out the serious risks accompanying technological progress – for example, the development of super-army concepts or cyber soldiers, which until recently seemed like science fiction. Her presentation was not only informative but also filled with passion and engagement, which drew significant interest from the audience.
Many talks at the conference focused on the societal impact of technology – discussing digital exclusion, AI ethics, and the need to build inclusive, human-centered solutions. This highlights that technological development must go hand-in-hand with social responsibility.
Another noteworthy presentation was dedicated to the Polish language model PLLuM (opens in a new tab), a national initiative in natural language processing based on Polish-language data and tailored to local needs. The model was developed in collaboration between several academic institutions and is already being used in areas such as public administration.
There was also strong interest in presentations related to marketing and brand building, where speakers discussed the latest trends in communication, the use of data in marketing strategies, and the importance of authenticity and transparency in customer relations. Experts also shared their experiences in creating effective digital campaigns and managing brands in a rapidly changing environment.
The conference also provided ample opportunities for networking – we had many engaging conversations with representatives of tech companies, startups, and innovation-supporting institutions. We also reconnected with many familiar faces – both from our Cluster and beyond – which only confirms that Infoshare is a key event on the IT industry calendar.
We returned full of ideas, with new contacts and a great dose of motivation for future action!
This was yet another edition in which our Cluster participated as a Community Partner. We thank the organizers for the invitation to this exceptional event.
