For years, he has supported networking and the integration of local communities of entrepreneurs, startups, NGOs, and informal movements.

He conducts training and consultations on community building, networking, personal, and business development for organizations such as the Innovation Manager Academy, My Patients Foundation, Silesian Museum in Opole, Provincial Cultural Center in Kielce, and dozens of other organizations.

He has also been involved in other initiatives including LinkedIn Local Kraków (meetings about marketing on LinkedIn in particular), Turquoise Breakfasts Poland (a think-tank spreading knowledge about turquoise management), Free Hugs Kraków (free hugs), protests against ACTA (as a local leader and organizer), Marshal’s Office for the Support of Civil Society Development (as a facilitator), Citizens’ Center (an NGO incubator where he twice helped develop the concept), and Toolshed (a nationwide association of coaches and trainers sharing knowledge).
