Partnerstwo jako czynnik kreacji innowacyjności w małych i średnich przedsiębiorstwach

Innovativeness and supporting it environment constitute nowadays the basement of companies’ competitiveness. Therefore so important is creation of conditions enabling companies access to knowledge, technological solutions and boosting its cooperation in the framework of network structures. It results i. a. from the character (the essence) of innovations, which are more and more frequently an interdisciplinary phenomenum, demanding from cooperating companies to benefit from key competencies of their own and their partners. It is particularly visible at a regional level where the subject of boosting innovativeness e. g. in form of supporting cluster structures is more and more frequently on scene.

Wychowanie do postaw twórczych

The purpose of the article is the justification of the process of growing mature for creative activity shaped on the foundations of European culture dominated by the triunity of truth – good – beauty. Creative works as original creations are subject to either objective or subjective valuation. Creation is the sub-creation of communicative competence with respect to the cultural pattern convention, specific symbolic expression. A significant characteristic of creativity is the cognitive, emotional, application self-realisation of the subjective perception of the intra- and interpersonal well-being.

Postawy polskich przedsiębiorstw wobec bezpośredniego inwestowania na rynkach zagranicznych

The paper offers a comprehensive analysis of direct investments made by Polish companies abroad. Foreign expansion is an important part of the development strategies of many Polish companies today. The empirical research described in the paper identifies the factors that determine direct investment by Polish companies abroad, with a special focus on barriers to such projects. The studies in question were carried out at the Foreign Trade Research Institute (IKiCHZ) in 2006 and involved two groups of businesses: those that have already invested abroad in recent years, and those that may carry out such projects in the future. The latter group comprises potential investors who stand out in the corporate sector because of their market position, financial condition and the fact that exports account for a large part of their sales.

The empirical studies discussed by the authors reveal that Polish entrepreneurs are interested in direct investment abroad and see it as an opportunity for the further development of their companies. The research shows that Polish investors on foreign markets primarily include large companies that export their products and are doing well financially. Poland’s EU accession has had a positive influence on Polish companies’ direct investment abroad. Still, the authors conclude that direct investment by Polish companies on foreign markets is still in its infancy. This is confirmed by the scope and forms of these projects as well as by the considerable caution displayed by the analyzed businesses in undertaking such operations.

Sytuacja ekonomiczno-finansowa gospodarstw rolnych po akcesji Polski do Unii Europejskiej

Adjustment processes and intensive absorption of structural funds (from national and EU budget)  they are main reasons of structural changes introduced in the Polish agri-food sector. This changes are connected  with agrarian structure, with agricultural equipment and with agricultural production structure as well.

Generally taking, volume of agricultural production didn’t  rise after accession Poland to EU. Despite the fact, agricultural income reaches relatively high level, thanks financial assistance by direct income payment.

Klastry jako sposób poprawy konkurencyjności

This article investigates into the drivers of cluster innovativeness. The positive impact of clusters on regional innovativeness is widely accepted by researchers. In this paper, we propose cluster innovation capabilities as the potential major contributor to the probability of cluster innovativeness and performance. As cluster innovation capabilities, we propose: a) formal and informal rule setting and enforcement, b) strategic decision making, c) reconfiguration of the cluster, d) opportunity recognition, e) networking and f) learning and give an overview of their underlying routines.

Zastosowanie systemów informatycznych w systemach wczesnego ostrzegania

This paper examines the turbulence environment and the informatics systems. Turbulence within an organization 's environment often creates changes in the need for information and consequently in existing information systems. Moving towards the zenith of the technological age brings with it an ever-increasing amount of uncertainty, change and flux. The worldwide turbulence will require different perspectives on organizations, different styles of leadership, and perhaps most important, the strategic flexibility on which this volume focuses.

Współczesne dylematy statystyczne przy ocenianiu konkurencyjności

This article shows that in the statistic researches and in the conclusions and solutions the most important is knowledge how to use data base e.g. about information included in the statistical yearbook. If we want to describe or compare figures we have to know for example the collection method.  In the Concise Statistical Yearbook we can read: The basis assumed for calculation of the population data (as of 30 VI and 31 XII) for years 1989—2001 were the results of the Population and Housing Census 2002; for the years 1999 (as of 31 XII) as well as 2000 and 2001 the data were compiled using balance method (in the administrative division valid as of 31 XII 2002) and for the years 1989—1998 and 1999 (as of 30 VI) using estimate method; the data, unless otherwise indicated, were also assumed for calculations per capita (per 1000 population, etc.). We have to know that selected information for the last year presented on the basis of preliminary data may change in subsequent publications of the Central Statistical Office and due to the electronic method of data processing, in some cases sums of components can differ from the amount given in the item ’’total’’.
