Bialystok is a provincial capital and the largest city in the north-eastern region of Poland. Warsaw – the capital of the country is only 188 km (116 miles) away.
Bialystok is a rather small city in terms of size, considering its big population – it is the second most densely populated city in Poland. Most of the sights worth visiting are in the strict centre of the town.
Bialystok is also a scientific centre, the seat of: Bialystok University of Technology, University of Bialystok, Medical University of Bialystok as well as Warsaw Branches of Theatre Academy and Academy of Music. There are also a dozen non-public educational institutions in Bialystok.
Bialystok is the obvious hub for discovering the natural wonders of the Podlasie region. There are 4 national parks in the region, including the world-famous Bialowieza National Park, the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The nearby town of Choroszcz is an entrance point to the beautiful Narew National Park. The town centre itself is well preserved and features a majestic baroque church as well as Branickis’ summer residence, currently comprising a museum with a collection of memorabilia connected with the Branicki family.
Further away is the town of Tykocin, with one of a few remaining Jewish synagogues of the region. The nearby villages of Bohoniki and Kruszyniany were the centre of Tatar Muslim migration to the country centuries ago and still have a vibrant and very specific Lipka Tatar community. The antique wooden mosques in the villages are hundreds of years old and are still in operation.

For XI EPPM 2021 Conference, 19-21 September 2021
On September 20-21, 2021, the 11th International Conference on Engineering, Project, and Production Management (EPPM2021) took place. The organizers of the conference were:
This year’s conference was organized in Poland for the second time. This eleventh meeting of scientists from around the world was initiated in 2010 by the Association of Engineering, Project, and Production Management (EPPM) based in Taiwan. Previous editions of the conference were held: twice in Australia (Gold Coast, Queensland), Taiwan (Singapore, Pingtung) and South Africa (Port Elizabeth, Cape Town) as well as in Thailand (Bangkok), Great Britain (Brighton), Jordan (Amman) and Germany (Berlin).
The topics of the conference included issues from the border of areas of technical and social sciences. Participants, representing 19 countries of the world (5 continents), delivered 70 papers. The topics included the issues of technology management, foresight and innovation management, production management and Industry 4.0, industrial engineering, process and project management, logistics and supply chain management, quality management, service engineering , construction industry. The best papers prepared for the EPPM2021 conference will be published in highly scored scientific journals, thanks to the funding received from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education under the “Excellent Science” program.
We hope that these two days of scientific discussions, exchange of opinions and networking have met your expectations. Once again we would like to thank the Conference Committee, our distinguished keynote speakers, plenary moderators, session chairs and secretaries for their invaluable contribution to the event.
The organizer of next year’s conference will be the National Technical University of Athens in Greece. We all hope to see in person in Athens!
