🎒 September = back to school. Or, in our case, back to meetups.

On Thursday, our Kraków office filled up with curious minds for another Talent Meetup - and it was a good reminder that some of the best learning happens simply by bringing people together.

There was a bit of theory, but much more doing, discussing and exchanging perspectives. Everyone got to take their own project or challenge and explore it through the Monkey and the Pedestal mental model and their CliftonStrengths.
No tests. No grades. Just good questions, thoughtful conversations and plenty of curiosity.
Thank you to Dominik Juszczyk for bringing the topic and to everyone who joined us and brought their own challenges to the table.

Judging by the photos, school is officially back in session at Grand Parade. And we’re quite happy with this version of it. 🎓

Summer is almost over 🤷, and the Kraków IT community is about to wake up from a short nap.

In just a few weeks, you'll be making a lot of hard choices: which meetup to choose and whether to eat one more slice of pizza🍕

Some of the best tech communities don’t start with a big conference. They start with one room, a few passionate people, and the courage to organise the very first meetup.

That’s exactly what happened this week. On one of the hottest evenings 🥵 of the summer, we hosted the inaugural Claude Community Kraków meetup at Grand Parade, bringing together nearly 70 people.

Only a month ago we welcomed the Build IT Club community, and it’s exciting to see new AI initiatives emerging across Kraków. Being able to help these communities get off the ground is something we’re genuinely proud of.

👏 A huge thank you to Łukasz Wolski, Marcin Gąstół and Dominik Tomalczyk for sharing their knowledge and to everyone who came along to learn, discuss and connect.

🌱 Here’s to helping great communities take their first steps, and watching them grow.

Today, Forum Odpowiedzialnego Biznesu (Responsible Business Forum) published the 24th edition of “Responsible Business in Poland 2025. Good Practices” — Poland’s most comprehensive review of CSR and sustainability initiatives.

We’re proud that Grand Parade has been included in the report for the fifth year in a row.

What makes this recognition particularly meaningful is the diversity of initiatives driven by our people and partners:

🇺🇦 Supporting Ukrainian teenagers through the Edu Hub programme
🏢 Opening our office space to NGOs and community organisations
🎓 Delivering courses at AGH University of Science and Technology
🇺🇦 Supporting Ukrainian seniors in Kraków through the Silver Hub programme
🧓🏻 Intergenerational cooperation program

While these initiatives differ in scope and focus, they share a common goal: making a positive impact in our communities and contributing to a more sustainable future.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed their time, expertise and passion to make them happen.

📖 You’ll find a link to the full report in the first comment (available in Polish).

What happens when real production scenarios make their way into the classroom? 🤔

The summer semester is about to begin for students 🧑‍🎓 , so it’s a perfect moment to look back at what our colleagues delivered in the previous one.

During the winter semester, Wojciech Czyżycki and Maciej Kozłowski led the “Fundamentals of Cloud Solutions” course at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of Politechnika Krakowska im. Tadeusza Kościuszki for 56 students. The program combined 30 hours of lectures with 30 hours of hands-on labs.

💬 “From day one, our goal was simple: show cloud as it’s used in real engineering teams — practical implementations, real trade-offs, and solutions designed to be not only architecturally sound, but also maintainable in production,” Wojciech said.

💬 “We covered AWS and Azure, Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD, and designing cloud solutions that scale in real systems. The lab sessions were built around scenarios inspired by commercial projects, and our day-to-day experience as DevOps and Cloud Engineers at Grand Parade directly shaped both the format and the topic selection,” Maciej added.

We’re proud to support this kind of university–industry collaboration — and we’re already looking forward to meeting the next group of students in the upcoming edition of the course.

Who says an office has to be empty after hours?

This year, ours often wasn’t. It was full of life- just in a different rhythm.
After work, we opened our space to seniors.

We hosted a 10th anniversary celebration of a Seniors’ Club, complete with music and dancing. Our office also became the place for a shared Christmas Eve gathering of two local seniors’ clubs: warm, communal, and full of conversation. And when letters arrived from Nowa Huta, written simply and honestly, the response felt obvious: we prepared over 50 Christmas gifts for seniors, based on their real needs.

These weren’t big, flashy gestures.
They were quiet, thoughtful actions -sharing space, giving time, showing care.

Beyond our daily responsibilities, it’s these moments of giving and connection that really count.
Especially now, just before the holidays 🎄

A big thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and energy to make it happen.
