Summary/Abstract: Against popular assumption, transfer of the technologies that are avaliable in the environment might be a source of innovative solutions. However, this highly depends on an enterprise’s absorptive capacity as well as desabsorptive abilities of technology doner. The author of the paper, based on his own research findings, attempts to assess the influence of the absorptive potential level existing in the financial companies operating in Poland on their innovativeness. In particular, he tries to eliminate the doubt suggesting that the increase of absorptive capacity, meaning, among others, the increase of experience, leads rather to some organizational routines restricting creativity instead leading to implementation of innovations, as it suggested in the literature. This in turn leads to limited originality of changes being outcomes of technology transfer.
