Description
The U.S. Department of State's Mission Poland announces an open competition for programs inspired by America's 250th anniversary through the Freedom 250 initiative. This initiative will support innovative projects, events, and activities that leverage America’s independence anniversary to highlight U.S. leadership and that celebrate the vibrant cooperation between the United States and Poland in business, defense, energy, science and technology innovation, and culture.

• Innovation bootcamps, hackathons, and accelerator style programs that link Polish and U.S. mentors, experts, and practitioners
• Policy labs and expert roundtable discussions on topics such as economic cooperation, science and technology, digital governance, and energy security
• Artistic and cultural workshops, joint performances and exhibitions
• Thematic workshops, networking events, and capacity building programs that build sustainable U.S.–Poland partnerships and follow on collaboration
