Strengthening economic and cultural dialogue between Poland and Spain in the heart of Madrid💫
On June 7th, the majestic Columns Hall of the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid hosted a truly unforgettable evening. It was much more than a celebration — it was a vibrant meeting point for cultures, friendships, and new opportunities.
Over 170 guests (!) brought their energy and enthusiasm — not only from Madrid, but also from Poland, other parts of Europe and beyond — including executives, diplomats, entrepreneurs, professionals, artists, journalists, and friends of Poland and Spain. Together, we celebrated Polish tradition and modernity through music, dance, cuisine, and heartfelt connection.
The grand joint polonaise by all the guests, the captivating performance of other Polish national dances by “Warszawianka” – Folk Song and Dance Ensemble of University of Warsaw, the charming cello concert with Moniuszko music by Global Iberartis SL, the exquisite Polish dinner by La Polonesa Restaurante Polaco, beautiful paintings of Zygmunt Stenwak, the joyful conversations and the warm energy of the night — reminded us how deeply culture can unite. Plus already before the Ball, as a gift from the organisers, our guests could enjoy a polonaise workshop and an exciting guided Madrid tour.
Each conversation, each new connection, and each toast planted seeds for future collaborations. Around the Ball, friendships, business ideas, and cross-cultural projects are already beginning to grow.
As PPM, we are proud to contribute to this cultural and economic dialogue. When tradition, elegance, and entrepreneurial spirit come together — opportunities arise that go far beyond one evening.
