From Web Summit Lisbon, Somewhere on Earth explores how Poland is becoming Central Europe’s tech hub. Meet the innovators behind AI-powered greenhouses, a nationwide mobile ID app, and a virtual fertility clinic—all transforming everyday life. Poland is rapidly growing as a tech hotspot, with startups raising €180M last year alone. Its skilled workforce, creative mindset, and engineering heritage are driving global expansion. We hear about how AI is being used to optimize greenhouse growth, reducing water and energy use while boosting yields. Farmers can control everything via an app, making sustainable farming easier than ever. The m-obywatel (mCitizen) app turns smartphones into digital IDs, streamlining government services for Poles across the globe.
