ESTONIA is, like, so 2006 and Cuba is over. The place to go in two-double-oh-seven, at least if you're a computer components manufacturer, will be Poland.

Sharp said that it will begin manufacturing LCD TV modules in Lysomice, Poland next month with capacity starting at 100,000 units per month in a 150m euro investment.

In September, Dell said it planned a €200 million site in Lodz, Poland to speed up European PC deliveries and complement the Limerick, Ireland site.

Why is Poland such a hot centre? Bright people, low costs, decent infrastructure and a nice central location for European distribution would certainly be among the answers. Not forgetting the fine vodka and gherkins, of course. µ

INQBLOT Poland is the sixth most populated EU member state by the reckoning of Wikipedia.
