Veronika Palečková has established the POPOKATEPETL association and publishing house which from time to time produces exhibitions and books.

Writing of her paintings, the curator of the Czech Museum of Fine Arts in Prague Jan Kříž said: “Veronika Palečková is one of those who seek and find a deep anchorage for their poetical imagination in the Czech tradition. She enriches the sensory lyricism of delicate romantic dreaming with disturbing symbols, through which the drama and unrest of the time speak, as well as the possible tragedy of an individual fate. Her use of white does indeed quiver with angelic eroticism, yet even here echoes penetrate from the cruelty of existence - as if the picture conveyed a presentiment that white can also be a symbol of death.“

Foundation Konto Bariéry 
Without missing a beat, Charta 77 Foundation relocated its activities from Stockholm, where it was founded by its Chairman František Janouch in 1978, to Prague; as of February 1990, it was registered as a charity/NGO in Czechoslovakia. 

Coming from a broad concept of defending human rights and Nadace Charty 77 supporting persecuted dissidents and samizdat culture, the foundation shifted its focus towards supporting a whole range of cultural and humanitarian activities, and in doing so became a pioneer for a civil society. 
Through its work, the Foundation achieved:
to reach out to a broad segment of the general public, whom it enlightened and gave positive guidance for the benefit of the non-profit sector
to render hands-on assistance to individuals, now numbering in the thousands, as they face extremely taxing social, health, and economic problems
to participate in creating a network of social, educational, and healthcare organizations – recruited both from professional circles and volunteers – who engage in constructive cooperation, and who today are able not only to receive help from the foundation, but to transform this help in a creative manner into new useful values
Since its very inception, the foundation has been open to, and provides financial assistance from its funds, to eligible applicants from all over the country.

SYSCAE
made a 3D model of Budanka Heritage Zone

Creating future of automobile industry is our job. We make it from sketch to final prototype.

SYSCAE was set up in 1989 and since its foundation it had focused on creation of CAD/CAM/CAE and PDM/PLM solutions and their implementation.
In 2001 the company underwent a transformation which resulted in separation of its business activities: CAD/CAM/CAE solutions were put in charge of its sister company DATASYS and SYSCAE thus fully concentrated on construction and development in the field of mechanical engineering, especially automotive and aerospace industries.
The company SYSCAE meets the requirements of ISO 9001:2008.
