Małgorzata Szumska

President of the Złota Mine in Złoty Stok, Owner of the Złoty Jar Guesthouse and Restaurant, and Stara Kruszarnia Restaurant

Writer, traveler, and influencer. Together with her family, she has been creating one of the largest and most awarded private tourist attractions in Poland for 25 years. The Złota Mine, once just a hole in the ground, has grown over 25 years into the largest employer in the region and one of the most popular tourist attractions in the country. It is a business strongly driven by women – 85% of the employees and 90% of managerial positions are held by women. The business is run with great responsibility for cultural heritage, as well as for ethics in tourism and responsibility for the community. This inspiring family business was born out of a passion for underground exploration, the courage to pursue dreams, and a touch of madness in business.
