The author focuses on presenting the phenomenon of globalisation in the context of Polish social media and e-commerce markets. The main objective is to find correlations between the deactivation of the Polish social network NK.pl (Nasza-klasa.pl; eng. Our-class.pl) vs. the development of globalisation, as well as the maintenance of the leading position by the online sales platform Allegro vs. the partial “failure” of the examined phenomenon. The considerations, embedded in broader theoretical inquiries, are conducted on the basis of case studies, a literature review, and desk research. The paper refers to the Polish online media environment. The author focuses on the cases of NK.pl vs. Facebook and Allegro vs. Amazon. The results indicate that globalisation is not “universal” in the media sphere in Poland. The author characterises the factors that influence the scope of impact of global solutions in the local market. In the paper, the author also draws attention to the importance of preserving brand identity, following the expectations and habits of the audience group and promoting culture, all of which can contribute to maintaining a robust position in the industry. The article is significant due to the continuous development of globalisation processes and the search by local companies for strategies to compete with global giants.
