MOTIFE helps international technology companies establish dedicated teams and operations in Poland through a structured Build Operate Transfer model. We recruit the team, create and operate the local organization, and prepare it for transfer into your company’s ownership. You gain an operational technology hub without having to build every local capability from day one, while keeping a clear path towards a fully owned Polish operation.

"I really enjoy how they go deep into understanding our needs and I would highly recommend MOTIFE as a partner."
"I would fully recommend MOTIFE to any organisation who is looking to set up a shop overseas."
"They are looking for the best solutions for their client's needs, and were responsive and open to collaborating closely with the client."
Build Operate Transfer is designed for companies that ultimately want to own their team and local operations but need an experienced partner to establish and manage them during the first stage.
The team is built specifically for your organization. Employees work on your products, use your technology, and become part of your company culture. The operating structure, processes, employment arrangements, and local capabilities are developed with the future transfer in mind.
MOTIFE takes responsibility for the initial build and operation of the Polish hub. Once the agreed transfer conditions are met, the team and operating structure move under your ownership.
We establish the foundations of your Polish technology hub. Together, we define the target team, operating model, budget, governance, and transfer objectives. MOTIFE then sets up the local structure and recruits employees dedicated to your organization.
The building stage can include:
MOTIFE manages the local organization while the team grows and prepares for independence. Your company remains responsible for product, technology, delivery, and engineering standards. MOTIFE manages the local employment, HR, payroll, compliance, administration, and workplace operations.
The operate stage can include:
Once the team and operating structure are ready, ownership and responsibility move to your organization. Because the transfer is planned from the start, MOTIFE prepares the people, processes, contracts, documentation, and local responsibilities required for an orderly handover.
The transfer can include:
Poland is no longer an emerging or experimental market. It is already a mature technology hub used by global companies to build, scale, and operate software engineering, product, data, cloud, cybersecurity, and business technology teams.
This is reflected in the structure of the local talent market. Around 84% of IT professionals work for international companies. The market is also highly experienced, with nearly 50% of the IT talent pool having more than 10 years ofprofessional experience.
Companies such as Google, Microsoft, Cisco, IBM, Motorola Solutions, HSBC, EPAM, Capgemini, State Street, UBS, Aptiv, HERE Technologies, and Hitachi Energy have built significant technology operations in Poland.
The market already has experienced managers, senior engineers, international delivery know-how, mature HR practices, and a deep vendor ecosystem.
MOTIFE helped First Advantage launch its Krakow technology hub and build a multidisciplinary team of more than 60 specialists. We supported recruitment, employment, HR and finance operations, office setup, and the transfer of the established hub into First Advantage’s organization.
MOTIFE established the Polish entity, recruited the local team, supported the opening of the office, and operated the organization during its initial growth stage. Ownership of the entity was later transferred to Karhoo, giving the company a functioning in-house technology operation in Poland.
MOTIFE helped Moatable establish its Polish technology hub through a phased BOT model. The team initially operated under an EOR structure while MOTIFE supported entity setup, recruitment, employment, office operations, and the final transfer. The hub was built and transferred within approximately six months.
We execute activities in parallel, and recruitment can be initiated even before an entity is registered.
