Great success of students at the International Economic Knowledge Olympiad
09.09.2024

Just 4 days ago, the XTB Foundation signed a 3-year cooperation agreement with the Polish Economic Society and today we can already celebrate our first joint success. The Polish team has just returned from Athens, where 5 of our students individually won... as many as 5 gold and silver medals at the International Economics Olympiad! In the team competition, they were unequivocally the best among over 100,000 competitors from around the world.
Our team consisted of:
- Szymon Sobiech from Lublin,
- Patrycja Smentoch from Gdansk,
- Wiktor Kocur from Poznan,
- Szymon Jackowski z Warsaw and
- Jan Baranowski from Lodz.
They achieved the best result in the history of our representatives' starts. All five are laureates of the National Economics Olympiad organized annually by our partner, the Polish Economic Society.
The enormity of the success is also witnessed by the huge interest of national and regional media from all over the country. Our heroes were talked about, among others, in the main news service of TVP1, "Good Morning TVN" or RMF FM.
Congratulations, we are very proud of you!
