We are pleased to invite you to an online session on The First Year of the Biden-Harris Administration and Challenges of the New Geopolitical Context, with Jon Decker, White House Correspondent / Senior National Editor, Gray Television, on Monday, March 21, 2021, between 10:00-11:30 a.m. CET.

Jon Decker has been a member of the White House Press Corps since 1995, covering the Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations. He is the only lawyer in the White House Press Corps and was among the few political journalists to correctly predict the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.

Following Jon's presentation, you will have the chance to ask your questions in a discussion moderated by Tony Housh, Chairman, AmCham Poland.

Starting from 11:00 a.m., a networking session will follow the main event. The participants will be split into four rooms, moderated by representatives of the four partner Chambers. The theme of the networking sessions is the conflict in Ukraine – the impact, what you did, and what you intend to do further.
