Technology Cluster Infotech

What Technology Cluster Infotech does

Technology Cluster Infotech (Klaster Technologiczny INFOTECH) is a non-profit technology cluster founded in 2012 and headquartered in Białystok, Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland, coordinated by Towarzystwo Amicus under the chairmanship of Adam Kamiński (President of Fundacja Partnerstwo na Rzecz Rozwoju) and the cluster coordination of Piotr Sobolewski. The cluster convenes dozens of IT member companies — including Intratel, Transition Technologies PSC, Infinity Group, Instapage, Sempai (part of NetArch), AtomStore, Eusoft, Induce One, and 4e Agency — alongside academic institutions (University of Bialystok, Bialystok University of Technology) and local government bodies, with the stated mission of strengthening the local technology sector and positioning Eastern Poland as an attractive investment destination.

The cluster does not develop a core technology product of its own. Instead, it serves as an organizational convenor that aggregates and amplifies the product portfolios of its members, which span AI and big-data platforms (Intratel's OneStepAI), private cloud and SMB cloud infrastructure (One Step Cloud / Private Cloud for SMB, with a California subsidiary registered in May 2014), augmented- and mixed-reality applications built on Microsoft HoloLens and Unity (Transition Technologies PSC), laboratory information management systems (Eusoft.Lab LIMS, deployed in approximately 200 European laboratories via Infinity Group), and e-commerce / digital experience platforms (AtomStore, Sitecore Commerce implementations including the Gemly gaming platform). Member companies hold tier-one partner credentials with Dell Technologies (Intratel: Titanium Partner, Partner of the Year 2015 and 2016), Google (Sempai: Premier Certified Partner, EMEA recognition 2017), Kentico (six Xperience 13 certified developers, Quality Audit Certification, Sites of the Month May 2023), Atlassian (TTPSC: Gold Solution Partner), and PTC.

The cluster generates revenue through four streams: recurring membership fees, EU and national grant administration (European Regional Development Fund under Priority I, Action 1.5), conference and training organization (Universal Design, AI & Big Data Expo, cybersecurity, GDPR), and coordinator/brokerage services for member matchmaking and joint project facilitation. Its go-to-market is community-led and event-driven: organized international delegations to CeBIT, AI & Big Data Expo Amsterdam (September 2023), EU-China forums, and the Wschodni Kongres Gospodarczy form the primary member-exposure channels, supplemented by an annual cluster conference series launched in January 2018 ('Zdarzyło się jutro'), an infotech.org.pl digital presence, a Facebook profile, and educational initiatives including the Technikum Programistyczne InfoTech vocational IT school. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the cluster operates with a lean 6-person coordination team.
