On June 8, 2026, the National Philharmonic in Warsaw will host the 36th edition of the 'Teraz Polska’ (Now Poland) Contest Gala, awarding the prestigious 'Teraz Polska’ Emblem to companies and institutions that shape the modern Polish economy. The event brings together business, science, public administration, culture, and media around a single idea: promoting what is most valuable, credible, and competitive in the Polish market.
The contest aims to identify and honor products, services, and innovations that stand out for quality, reliability, and Polish origin. The selection process involves a multi-stage expert evaluation that examines not only the properties of the entry but also its usability, craftsmanship, market position, and growth potential. The final decision is made by the Contest Chapter.
This year, 60 entities received nominations: 41 products, 3 innovations, and 16 services. This cross-section represents Polish entrepreneurship, from everyday consumer goods to advanced technologies and specialized services addressing the needs of the modern economy.
Quality as a result of daily decisions
According to Krzysztof Przybył, president of the Foundation of the Polish Promotional Emblem, the gala is a moment when quality becomes tangible. – The 'Teraz Polska’ Gala is one of those moments where it is particularly visible that quality is not an abstract slogan, but the result of daily decisions, investments, and responsibility. The laureates of the Contest show that Polish companies can create solutions valued by consumers, business partners, and experts. It is from such stories that the credibility of the Polish brand is built – said Przybył.
The 'Teraz Polska’ Emblem has accompanied companies for over three decades. It is now one of the most recognizable marks promoting domestic products, services, and innovations. For businesses, it confirms high standards; for consumers, it signals trustworthiness.
A broad understanding of Polish quality
Michał Lipiński, director of the 'Teraz Polska’ Contest, noted that this year’s edition shows how broadly Polish quality can now be understood. – This year’s edition well demonstrates how broadly Polish quality can be understood today. It is no longer just the durability of a product or efficiency of a service, but also technology, safety, functionality, environmental responsibility, and the ability to respond to real market needs. The laureates form a very diverse group, but they are united by the ambition to develop based on high standards – Lipiński emphasized.
Consumer research conducted for the Foundation confirms that quality remains one of the key selection criteria for products and services. The recognizable quality mark supports brand trust and strengthens its prestige.
A celebration of ambassadors of Polish quality
The gala will take place on June 8, 2026, at the National Philharmonic in Warsaw. Participants will include representatives of business, public institutions, science, culture, and media. The event will feature an artistic performance by the Representative Orchestra of the Polish Air Force named after Karol Kurpiński. During the ceremony, the laureates of the 36th edition will be announced, joining the group of ambassadors of Polish quality.
