ONE of your readers expressed scepticism as to the benefits of the recent twinning agreement between Swindon and Torun.
Obviously we should keep an eye on what the council gets up to, but this time I think it has had an excellent result.
I'm a businessman and have already spoken to companies in Torun about our services. The Polish market is certainly small. However, there are requirements for both hi-tech solutions as well as industrial machinery and property development.
The twinning agreement gives companies in Swindon a headstart, business organisations from both towns are talking to each other and a conference is planned for November.
Torun is one of Poland's finest cities, with a rich history and huge cultural capital. Swindon can be proud to be twinned with it.
