Działalność innowacyjna małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw w Polsce
Innovativeness of Polish Small and Medium-sized Enterprises

Summary/Abstract: The issue of innovation has been and continues to be a key element in the development considerations of Poland and the European Union. Unfortunately, all the rankings carried out recently show Poland’s industry and overall economy to lack innovation. Although small and medium-sized enterprises are believed to have a greater innovation capacity due to their less bureaucratic management style and greater flexibility in decision-making, that ability is often accompanied by a number of difficulties in generating and implementing innovation. This paper presents the results of an extended survey of innovation in industry and a survey of innovation in the services sector done in 2006–2011. The results presented here relate to all activities involved in the development and implementation of product, process, organisational and marketing innovations in Polish enterprises.
