17 April 2026
The finals of the first edition of the "Accounting in Business" Olympiad have just concluded, attracting 1,981 students from 121 schools across Poland. The top 50 participants qualified for the finals, and the winners were announced on April 15, 2026, in Warsaw. First place went to Paulina Schneider from Nowy Sącz, second to Magda Pojawa from Suwałki, and third to Filip Cholewiński from Słupsk.

The event was exceptional – as SKWP President Stanisław Hóńko emphasised, it was a historic moment for Polish accounting: "You are all champions of Poland. This event is important for the entire accounting community because, for the first time, accounting has had a national competition."

The final was also attended by representatives of the most important industry institutions, including Agnieszka Stachniak , Deputy Director at the Department of Public Expenditure Efficiency and Accounting at the Ministry of Finance, Katarzyna Pokrop, Director at the Polish Audit Oversight Agency, and Agnieszka Jarosz, Managing Director of ACCA Northern and Eastern Europe.

Targi Kielce partnered with the event, actively supporting the development of young talents in accounting. The Olympiad finalists received invitations to the Accounting Office Congress, where they will have the opportunity to expand their knowledge, meet industry practitioners, and see modern accounting in practice.

Congratulations to all participants, winners and teachers – it is thanks to initiatives like these that the future of the accounting profession is being built.
