Poland is envious of India's "extra-ordinary achievements" in some fields, he said obviously referring to the country's strides in the information technology sector. Tusk said India and Poland have become role-models for the world because of their "stable democracy" and "political stability".
Stating that he saw a lot of potential to enhance bilateral ties, Tusk said there isn't even "tiniest (adverse) reason" in the way of boosting the relationship, which needs to be transformed into an "exceptional" one.
"When we see the map of the world, European Union, we can clearly see potential in boosting ties between the EU and India," said Tusk, noting that next year's EU-India Summit would take place during the Polish presidency of the European Union.
He noted that India and Poland were less affected by the global economic crisis. "We were able to cope difficult period." Director of Foreign Investment Department - Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency, Iwona Chojnowska-Haponik, said Poland is keen for Indian investment in the area of automotive industry, aviation, BPO and research and development.
"There are 140,000 employees in IT services, and there are more than 360 BPO companies in Poland," she said. CEO of Infosys BPO Swaminathan Dandapani and European Delivery head of the Bangalore-based company, Krystian Bestry, in their presentation, said the NASDAQ-listed company expects workforce at its delivery centre in Poland to go up to 1,500 by 2011 from the present 950, and the number of clients from three last year to 20 in 2013.
