OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence company, is looking into expanding their operations to Europe, with Poland being a potential destination. CEO Sam Altman is in the middle of a tour of European cities to find the right office space for the venture. The main priority for the company is to find a good spot with a high talent density.
Poland is a fast-growing destination for IT experts, with many renowned companies like Alphabet Inc, JP Morgan Chase & Co, and Visa Inc having set up major development hubs there. It is also home to the game developer CD Projekt SA, the creators of the popular titles The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077.

Altman noted his support of the European Union’s efforts to lead a global effort in regulating AI companies.
The CEO went on to meet with the Polish Prime Minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, during his visit. Altman also plans to visit Paris and the UK in the future.
