Celebrating the past,
developing the future
The year 1993. A time of rapid political, economic and social transformations. Bill Clinton becomes President of the United States. Nelson Mandela receives the Nobel Peace Prize. The world witnesses the debut of the first web page.
Meanwhile, in Krakow, in the room 415 of the building B5 of the Faculty of Metallurgy at the AGH University of Science and Technology, Prof. Janusz Filipiak, with his wife Elżbieta and a small group of students recruited during teleinformatics classes, founds Comarch.

invested in R&D in 2023
From the very beginning, our goal has been to build the value of our company. Economic patriotism has always been close to our hearts. We have not limited ourselves to the trade of licenses for the IT systems of other companies. Instead, we've focused on creating our own products, training our employees, and attracting new customers. This approach is still valid today, which is why we invest 15% of our revenues in research and development. And that's just one of the numbers we are proud of.

Three memories for three decades
The past two decades have been full of challenges. Starting with my first job. It was a process of gradually gaining experience. Then, my first leadership role and the fires that needed to be dealt with. And finally, working with an international team. From today's perspective, I know one thing: you don't have to worry about the difficulties in advance. You just start with small steps and it turns out that it's not as difficult as it seems.
Comarch's greatest asset is its people. From the very beginning, I've been fortunate to work with people who give 120%, often complement each other's skills, and are open-minded.
Katarzyna Robak, Betterfly DesignerWorking on products for the mass market products comes with its own set of challenges. These include frequently changing regulations, and tens of thousands of customers using our software every day, each of whom we want to be treated as unique.
Our team employs specialists with extensive experience as well as young individuals with fresh ideas. This diversity is our internal strength and helps us to better understand our customers' needs. I also appreciate Comarch as a stable employer with a strong sense of social responsibility.
Grzegorz Mączka, Director of Comarch ERP Optima/Betterfly Production CenterIn order to keep up with trends and, more importantly, stay ahead of them, we need to constantly evolve and update our technology stack. Therefore, synchronizing project schedules with product development plans and working closely with R&D have always been key aspects of my job. I appreciate the clear lines of responsibility and the opportunities for career development that I have gained within the company. I work with customers and partners from around the world to deliver projects with transformative potential. I am sure that Comarch will continue to strengthen its position in the IT market.
