The History of SPI
From an industry-led initiative to a nationwide community
The start of the initiative
An initiative has been launched to bring together people working in the information sector. Its aim was to create a space for the exchange of knowledge, experience and contacts for the growing infobroker community.
Registration of an association
On 25 November 2015, the Association of Information Professionals was entered in the National Court Register. The initiative, which originated in Kraków, was given a formal basis for operating throughout Poland.
Infobroker Workshop
SPI has co-organised successive editions of a conference dedicated to the practice of searching for, analysing and utilising information, bringing together the professional and academic communities.
#InfoPRO meetings
A series of industry meetings fostered discussion on the sources, methods and challenges of working with information, including the deep web, reliability and information overload.
WPI 5.0
The fifth edition of the Infobroker Workshop once again brought together practitioners and researchers working in the fields of information and new technologies.
New authorities
In September 2025, the new SPI governing body was appointed, marking the start of a new phase in the organisation’s development.
SPI is back in action
In its eleventh year as a formally registered association, SPI is revitalising its presence, growing its community and inviting new members to help shape its programme of activities.
