The aim of this paper is to compare the financial effects of domestic and foreign companies activities on the basis of two randomly chosen enterprises. It is argued that foreign companies are the carriers of modern technologies what have the influence on financial results obtained by them. However, their successes cannot be attributed only to better innovativeness but also to better use of borrowed capital. Higher proneness to risk resulting from financing the company activities from external sources in the long-term perspective may bring the company higher profitability and, in consequence, contribute to faster development of the enterprise.

The aim of the article is to identify the current trends in the process of convergence of the member states of the EU within the sphere of innovativeness and to trace the directions of European policy supporting innovative development towards securing stable economic growth. The above formulated aim is achieved by presenting arguments for the significance of technical progress and innovation to economic growth from the perspective of the major trends in economic thought. On the basis of such data as the level of innovativeness of European economy, and the size and structure of expenditures on research and development it is possible to verify the thesis that the ensuring of a stable economic growth and obtaining competition advantage by the member states of the EU depends on an increase in expenditure on research and development as well as on the development of systems of education

As has been confirmed by many Polish and international institutions, the innovativeness of Polish SMEs rates relatively low. In terms of creating and implementing innovation, it is of the utmost importance that managers be aware of the need to create an adequate organisational culture and climate in order to support the realisation of the innovation process. Employees also play a crucial role. An organisational culture that makes employees responsible for the company’s success and motivates them to be creative is one that will support both the firm’s development and its competitive position. This paper presents an analysis of research conducted in the field of innovativeness.

The aim of the article is to show that patent – the granting of a temporary monopolistic position, which is detrimental to the economic activity, since any legally sanctioned monopoly is an obstacle to economic development – in the long term may in fact have a positive impact on economic development. Growth is possible today only when the economy is strong and can succeed in the presence of global competition, i.e. the economy based on knowledge and innovation. The European Union, in principle, uses two instruments to increase innovation: competition policy and industrial policy. However, these policies often pursue divergent goals, as competition policy aims at an undistorted form of competition, whereas industrial policy distorts competition, through the support granted to selected entities and economic sectors. Another, equally important instrument, which also seeks to promote innovation and thus the competitiveness of the economy is patent, the granting of a temporary monopoly (a legally sanctioned monopolistic position). Despite all of its shortcomings, patent is important, since it fosters innovation and enables the spread of technology. On the other hand, the single European patent, if adopted, will increase legal certainty and facilitate access to goods and technologies by lowering costs.

The article is an attempt at answering the question about the function of metaphors and their formal-semantic shape mainly in poetic and scien- tific texts. The comparative analysis being carried out proves that metaphorical conjunctions occur in both variants of utterances but their stylistic function, frequency and a degree of conventionalization are of a different character. Innovative and strongly individualized metaphors are characteristic of poetry whereas for the language of science – mainly metaphors considerably standardized based on system models and structures whose genetic innovativeness we are no longer aware of; rarely innovative metaphors. Therefore it seems unauthorized to treat metaphors as universal linguistic labels typical of each kind of utterance unless we understand such universality in a slightly narrower sense, i.e., as “useful, usable, suitable, helpful”.
