On behalf of Małgorzata Adamkiewicz, MD, PhD, the award was received by Katarzyna Dubno, Director of External Relations, ESG and Health Economics at Adamed Pharma. Quoting the words of Małgorzata Adamkiewicz, MD, PhD, she said:

"In the current geopolitical situation, we must remember that freedom is not given to us once and for all – neither is economic freedom. We must take care of it and develop it, building a strong Polish economy. And this is only possible thanks to Polish entrepreneurs and strong companies such as Adamed Pharma, which consistently invests, creates new jobs, develops internationally by improving the balance of Polish foreign trade, develops young talents as part of the ADAMED SmartUP program, and what is very important today – by producing medicines in Poland, it ensures the drug safety of our country. For such companies to develop, all stakeholders must understand and cooperate with each other – companies, the world of science, the media, the regulator and the public side. And I wish such an agreement and cooperation to all of us for the next years of economic freedom.

The awards granted during the gala are an important summary of the past 35 years of economic freedom in Poland and an inspiration for further development and support for innovation, which is the foundation of Polish's success after 1989.
