Who

Aureliusz Gorski

Founder · Entrepreneur · Poland

Serial entrepreneur with close to two decades in venture building, known in Poland for popularising the idea of innovation districts. For several years he ran the development of the country's key ecosystem projects and took part in building innovation districts abroad, work that shaped a good part of the Polish startup landscape.

He was behind AIP Business Link, the first Polish startup ecosystem, between 2012 and 2016; the CIC innovation centre in Warsaw, from 2015 to 2023; and Venture Cafe Warsaw, a foundation supporting the local innovation community, from 2019 to 2023.

In 2023 he founded CampusAI, the world's first virtual AI-native school, and DistrictORG, a platform that uses game engines to build digital replicas of local innovation ecosystems. CampusAI was quickly recognised for its approach to teaching AI: personalised, efficient and affordable. In June 2024 it raised ten million dollars in a pre-seed round and began expanding globally.
