The location of the airport is its unique advantage. The Silesian University of Technology operates in Gliwice, as well as many production and service companies with a national, European and global reach. The city of Gliwice also has a modern sports and entertainment hall – Arena Gliwice. The proximity of the Gliwice – Sośnica junction connecting the A1 and A4 motorways, Droga Trasa Średnicowa, a short distance to the city center and the vicinity of the “Nowe Gliwice” Education and Business Center GAPR sp. z o.o. they are of particular benefit to investors and entrepreneurs. The southern areas of the airport are a very attractive investment offer for business activities.

Since 2017, GAPR owns half of the Gliwice airport. At the request of the Agency, in 2016-2017, a modernization plan was prepared and construction works began in 2018.

Works at the airport include the construction of: a paved runway with an artificial surface, a paved taxiway with an artificial surface, an apron, parking lots, access roads, and a bicycle path around the airport.
