Today, Netflix officially opened its new Warsaw office, marking a pivotal moment in the company’s history since first launching in Poland 10 years ago. Including Netflix’s only technology hub outside of the United States, this new office brings world-class technical and creative talent together under one roof: the engineers who design and build products used across Netflix’s global ecosystem, and the creative team driving its ambitious Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) content slate.

Located in the heart of the city, the new office already houses 300 staff, across content and engineering, as well as marketing, global affairs, communications, finance, and talent. Netflix opened its first Poland office in 2022, and its dedicated technology hub was established the following year. Since then, Netflix’s engineering footprint in Warsaw has grown significantly, and the team will continue to expand over the coming years with additional focus on infrastructure, gaming and production technology.

“I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved in Poland over the last decade,” said Greg Peters, co‑CEO of Netflix. “Poland is home to outstanding creative talent, and together with our partners we’ve brought some of the country’s best stories to audiences across Central and Eastern Europe. At the same time, our engineers here are building cutting‑edge innovation supporting how films and series are made, managed and delivered to more than half a billion people worldwide. We’re excited to expand our presence in Poland and can’t wait for what comes next.”

Expanding its work with Poland’s leading institutions to safeguard and promote the country’s cultural heritage, Netflix also announced a new partnership with the National Film Archive (FINA) to support its important efforts to restore some of the most iconic works of Polish cinema to their former glory.

Researchers and specialists at FINA will study in detail the original film tapes carrying monumental titles such as Pharaoh by Jerzy Kawalerowicz (1966), The Promised Land by Andrzej Wajda (1974) and Znachor (The Quack) by Michał Waszyński (1937) and Jerzy Hoffman (1982). The project will see the complete restoration and preservation of over a dozen Poland’s film classics, including films shot almost a century ago.

"1983" was Netflix's first series in Poland. It was followed by more than 80 original productions over the last decade.

Since launching in 2016, Netflix has produced and licensed over 700 films and series in Poland. Its first original title was the conspiracy thriller 1983, directed by, among others,  Agnieszka Holland. Since then, the slate has grown to include more than 80 original productions — from the popular comedy 1670 by emerging screenwriter Kuba Różyłło, to the film Forgotten Love, based on iconic Polish IP, as well as gripping dramas Heweliusz and High Water from the creative team of Jan Holoubek, Kasper Bajon, and Anna Kępińska, and the action thriller Inside Furioza. These titles have resonated strongly with both local and global audiences, with more than 60 Polish titles appearing in Netflix’s Global Non-English Weekly Top 10 lists across both film and television.

Contributing more than 3 billion PLN to Poland’s GDP, Netflix has worked with over 40 production companies, generated more than 5,000 cast and crew jobs, as well as 14,000 roles for extras and day hires. It has also invested in skills and talent‑development programs with partners including the Polish Producers Alliance and the Polish Film Institute, the New Horizons Association and the Łódź Film School, reaching over 1,300 participants.

The 2026 Polish slate on Netflix continues to showcase a diverse range of local stories, including The Doll, a fresh adaptation of a beloved Polish classic; Less of a Stranger, a biopic of Polish rock legend Jan Borysewicz; and Anesthesia, Netflix’s first Polish medical procedural drama. Members will also be treated to the third season of hit comedy 1670, as well as the first Polish edition of Love Is Blind.
