During the three days the conference is held there are a series of discussions, lectures, and panels. These all focus on leadership, heritage, and the future of our Diaspora. To date, there have been five editions of Quo Vadis in Canada and the United States. They have attracted delegates from all corners of the North American continent as well as Europe and Australia. The Quo Vadis network alone is already 500 alumni strong.
The second installment of the Quo Vadis conference in the United States will be held in New Britain, Connecticut. New Britain has a long history of Polish immigrant settlement as well as a strong cultivation of Polish culture and heritage. This year’s conference will focus on increased Polonia presence in politics, discussion of career success, and also highlight Polish presence in the arts. It will cover several industries to not only create a lasting network for the delegates but also prove that successful young Polish professionals can be present in a variety of fields.
What to expect:
Opportunities to meet members from Polonia communities around the world.
Network and build relationships.
Participate in panels, workshops, and small groups while building the future of Polonia.
Hear about initiatives occurring all over the world.
Listen to world class speakers.

Quo Vadis is an annual congregation of college and graduate students as well as young professionals aimed at creating a sustainable world-wide network of young members of the Polish Diaspora. The Quo Vadis conference series originated in Canada when a group of students at the University of Ottawa decided to put this idea into action in 2009. The main aim of this project is to unify and strengthen local communities as well as provide networking opportunities.
