AI in Polish companies by voivodeship (2025)
Poland has 16 voivodeships, its regions. GUS gives exact values for only the two extreme voivodeships, and a map with three ranges for the others. The table shows the range and the digital intensity indicator that GUS publishes for each voivodeship.

Source: GUS, „Information society in Poland in 2025”, published on 16 December 2025, the map of AI use and the chart of digital intensity. We read the ranges from the map, so the order of voivodeships within a range cannot be established. Masovia has the highest share of companies with AI and the highest share of companies with high or very high digital intensity (39.0%).
AI in Polish companies by sector (2025)
| Section of activity | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Information and communication | 32.6% | 37.8% |
| Repair and maintenance of computers and communication equipment | 18.6% | 26.5% |
| Professional, scientific and technical activities | 14.4% | 23.2% |
| Electricity and energy supply | 8.4% | 13.0% |
| Administrative and support activities | 8.4% | 11.2% |
| Trade; repair of motor vehicles | 5.5% | 9.0% |
| Manufacturing | 5.1% | 7.8% |
| Water supply, sewerage and waste | 2.5% | 6.8% |
| Accommodation and food services | 2.4% | 5.4% |
| Real estate activities | 4.0% | 5.1% |
| Transport and storage | 2.5% | 3.4% |
| Construction | 2.0% | 2.6% |
- The survey covers companies with at least 10 employees
- A company counts once, even when it uses several AI technologies
- The data by voivodeship and sector cover 2025
- The share of companies with AI does not say how many processes were covered, or with what effect
Professional, scientific and technical activities grew fastest, which includes law firms, accounting offices, consultancies and design offices: by 8.8 percentage points in one year. Read the regional differences together with the structure of the economy, because large companies and the information and communication sector use AI much more often, and their share differs between voivodeships.
