Context And Clarity
The architecture of understanding between Warsaw and Shanghai.
The 5231 Standard
We believe that real understanding, business, cultural, and social, is the foundation of every valuable relationship.
The mission of 5231 Project is to provide deep context that connects perspectives. We are building a digital bridge to support strategic decisions and foster lasting relationships between East and West, focusing on substantive dialogue across divides.
In a world dominated by stereotypes, we choose grassroots work. We combine macroeconomic analysis with a "boots on the ground" perspective to transform the fear of the unknown into a strategic advantage.

The Founder
Maksymilian Szabatin
Based in Shanghai. 5231 Strategy Architect. Innovation strategy researcher and Chinese Government Scholarship recipient at Fudan University in Shanghai one of China's top three elite institutions.
He focuses on evaluating development policies, benchmarking Polish aspirations against China’s execution effectiveness. Operating within the local academic system, he deconstructs China's long-term plans and translates them into the language of European business.
He gained experience not only in lecture halls but through the practice of economic diplomacy at the Polish-Asian Chamber of Commerce under the guidance of former deputy prime minister Janusz Piechociński. Operating at the convergence of two systems, his goal is to translate "System China" into tangible value for European decision-makers.

Discipline & Observation (Grit)
The foundation of effectiveness in business and analytics is grit. Years of martial arts practice (BJJ, Muay Thai) are not merely a hobby but the foundation of a work ethic: teaching humility towards the process, composure under pressure, and long-term commitment. Analog photography, in turn, serves as training in mindfulness, the ability to perceive social nuances that are lost in the digital rush.
