Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this paper is to discuss the impact of labour migration on knowledge and skills development. In the article the results of the research conducted on a group of 54 Polish entrepreneurs are presented. They migrated to West European countries and after returning they decided to set up own businesses. The data show that migration provided them with an opportunity to increase knowledge, develop skills and identify or strengthen their abilities. Thus, it can be concluded that migration contributed to the development of human capital among the investigated entrepreneurs, which also supports the concept of brain circulation.
