Innovation determines expansion or just existence of enterprises. It’s an important element of competitive advantage and it is a characteristic that encourages customers to buy novelties. Unfortunately, with innovation activity closely related is uncertainty risk, that means insecurity that costly process of creating innovation solutions will succeed. By dint of necessity of high costs of innovation activity, only small percent of enterprises have their own research and develop-ment buck-up. More and more popular become external sources of information for innovative activity, such as: customers, research and development networks, con-ferences, scientist publications and journals. The paper presents sources of infor-mation used by polish enterprises in innovation activity, classify them and show its essence and importance. Main attention is put on sources, which according to modern theories of innovation and practice of innovative firms, are the most im-portant, that means internal R&D activity and customers. An additional value of the paper is a discussion on the ways and the sense of measure the influence of chosen sources of information on the process of creation innovations in companies.

Strong competition among entrepreneurs forces them to use innovation as the main source of competitive superiority. Dominating role of innovation – the factor of development - forces individual firms to search for the capability of widest use of innovation in their activity. Innovation is a result of specific process, which links up operations like presenting an idea of innovation and implementation of new solution. Proficient management of implementing the innovation process becomes important in creating innovativeness of the company. In order to be able to compete, firms must introduce new technologies, products, services and organizational systems. Nowadays innovation activity driving at bringing new products, processes, new organizational and marketing methods out is one of the most important conditions of firm market success. The paper discusses the concepts of innovativeness and analyses the theoretical conditions for its development, as well as the existing conditions for innovativeness of industrial enterprises in contemporary Poland. The objective of this paper is an analysis of statistical data (GUS) related to technology transfer of industrial entrepreneurs and its influence on innovativeness of firm. This analysis examines the efficiency of innovation activity in Polish industrial companies.

The purpose of this article is the empirical verification of characteristics of innovation activity and innovation in service companies based on the results of the Community Innovation Survey. In the first part of the study the characteristics of services that determine the nature of innovation activity and innovation model in service companies are indicated. In the following part the empirical verification of these features, based on the results of the CIS for all EU countries, is carried out. Including into the study all EU countries gives a large number of observations, and it should be noted that the previous studies in this area have been conducted based on the data for the individual countries. The research method is to compare the innovative activities of industrial and service companies in the EU countries, which shows the possible differences in the nature of innovation activities of companies from both sectors. This allows to answer the question whether the innovative activities of service companies can be studied using the same tools that are used in industrial companies (assimilation approach) or to develop new methods for measuring innovative activity − (a) specific to service companies (demarcation approach) or (b) relating both to companies from both sectors (integration approach). In the article all the characteristics of innovation activity in service companies are positively verified. The exception is an interactive nature of innovation activities in service companies. It is important to pay attention to the data from the last two CIS rounds, from which we can find out that non-technological innovations are equally important in industrial companies, as well as in service companies, and both types of innovation are generally complementary to each other. It follows an interesting conclusion that it is impossible to make a simple distinction between technological innovation in industrial companies and non-technological one in service companies, and research on innovation activities should rather be based on an integration approach. Unfortunately, the dominance of assimilation approach in CIS makes innovative activities of service companies are still not thoroughly examined and fully recognized. Therefore, despite the positive changes in the quality of the data, which can be seen when comparing the results of the latest and possibly the oldest CIS rounds, further changes are necessary in this area. Proposals for such changes are indicated by the author.

Coastalisation is a widely known concept that builds on the global urbanisation of the world’s marine and ocean coasts. In this paper, the degree of coastalisation of the Russian regions is analysed using a variety of parameters, including population numbers and gross regional products, indicating the accumulation of human activity in the coastal regions against the less densely populated inland territories. This research shows that coastalisation is expected to continue, making coastal regions the most attractive for international and interregional migration, hence their high innovation performance. Based on the principles of human geography, we put forward the hypothesis that Russia’s coastal territories are highly heterogeneous in their development dynamics. This study aims to test the interdependence between migration figures and innovation values across 23 regions of Russia with access to the sea. The research design comprises three stages: calculation of innovation performance, evaluation of migration flows and the building up of a typology of coastal regions. The research results reveal an increased migration attractiveness of the country’s coastal regions, with the St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad agglomerations and the Black Sea coast of the Krasnodar Krai (region) as the main attractors. Intensive innovation activity is characteristic of St. Petersburg, the northern capital of Russia, whereas peripheral regions where the extractive industries dominate (the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (district), Kamchatka, Krasnoyarsk and Magadan regions) demonstrate a much weaker trend towards combining innovation performance and migration attractiveness.

Research background: The first business support organizations (BSO) appeared in Poland in the 90s of the last century. They were transferred from Western Europe and the United States, where they provided system solutions and played an important role in stimulating innovation activity. However, the latter regions are economically developed, while Poland is playing catch-up. The important question is whether business support organizations will significantly increase the innovative potential of Polish enterprises. Purpose of the article: The purpose of this paper is to probe the impact of business support organizations on innovation activity in Polish industrial companies. It remains to be determined whether enterprises which use BSO services are more likely to engage in innovation activities than enterprises which do not use such services. Methods: To carry out the study, a multi-factor logit regression method was used. In this study, the method allows the determination of the odds ratio for the likely occurrence of innovation activity in companies that used the services of BSOs compared to enterprises that did not do so. The attributes of innovation activity have been singled out in accordance with the international standards of the Oslo methodology. The study was conducted in 2015 for the years 2012?2014 based on a sample of 951 manufacturing companies in the Masovian Voivodeship. Findings & Value added: In the Masovian Voivodeship it is the technological parks and training and consulting centres which have the most advanced degree of influence on the innovation activity of enterprises. The roles of technology incubators, and loan and guarantee funds are also significant. With regard to cooperation on innovation, there is a much better arrangement in sectoral systems, i.e., with suppliers, customers and competitors, than with scientific institutions.

One of the ways to study the problems of introduction of pedagogical innovations into practice is to identify the factors which prevent their successful implementation. We set up a goal to study psychological-pedagogical problems of innovation introduction in retrospective, namely in the period of the 20ies of the previous century which is characterized by intensive use of new methods, teaching techniques, the tendency to change Ukrainian education system. To consider these problems in retrospective will make it possible to see them more clearly and to work out the ways to solve them. The research material is the publications in pedagogical journals, central press, and works of teachers-researchers of the studied period. A successful introduction of innovations was hindered by inner psychiatric resistance of a teacher, a stereotype way of thinking, fear of new things. Psychological objection was caused by a frequent and rapid change of innovations, its over-idealization, failed previous experience. Teachers-practitioners were sure that due to a frequent innovation change students would not receive proper knowledge because of the exclusion of a traditional method and a poor use of a new one. Among the reasons which prevented a successful innovation introduction was the lack of proper training of a teacher on the background of difficult working conditions of a teacher, a low salary, a large amount of work, overcrowded classrooms. A big obstacle on the way to a successful introduction of innovations was the fact that proper methodological support was not available. The teachers who shared their experience in pedagogical journals focused on this issue. The application of numerous new teaching methods required some changes in educational processes, setting up special laboratories, purchasing proper equipment, new textbooks. However, as the materials published in the periodicals prove, these conditions were not met that made innovation ineffective. The issues raised by Ukrainian teachers in the 20ies of the last century are still relevant. Generalizing their experience, taking into consideration mistakes will facilitate a successful introduction of innovative methods into a contemporary Ukrainian system of education.

The essence of the concepts “innovation”, “innovation activity of the pedagogue”, “innovation potential of the institution of education”, “modern approaches to the management of innovation activity” have been clarified in the article. It has been grounded that the basis of inno-vation activity is the ability to construct the conceptual foundations of pedagogical innovations, which include diagnostics, forecasting, devel-opment of the program of the experiment, analysis of its implementa-tion, as well as realization of the innovation program, tracking the course and the result of its implementation, correction and reflection of innova-tion actions. The main functions of innovation management, which in-clude analytical-forecasting, planning, organization, control and regula-tion, have been characterized. The eight main stages of management of innovation activity have been singled out and analyzed. For its imple-mentation it is necessary to decide on the ability of pedagogues to crea-tive work in general, to prove the necessity of changes, to offer the per-fect monitoring system of the innovation process of the institution of education. The article distinguishes five levels of teacher’s innovation activity: zero, adaptive, reproductive, heuristic, and creative.

Artykuł przedstawia wyniki badania, którego celem jest określenie charakteru relacji zachodzących pomiędzy rodzajem podejmowanej działalności innowacyjnej a osiąganym efektem innowacyjnym występującym wśród przedsiębiorstw przemysłu wysokiej techniki w Polsce. Założono, że znaczenie efektu innowacyjnego jest proporcjonalne do liczby i zakresu podejmowanych działań innowacyjnych. Prezentowany zakres badania dotyczy innowacji w przedsiębiorstwach przemysłowych należących do sektora wysokiej techniki, charakteryzuje innowacje na poziomie przedsiębiorstwa i uwzględnia dyfuzję do poziomu "nowość dla przedsiębiorstwa". Działania innowacyjne podzielono na trzy grupy obejmujące: (1) nakłady na badania i rozwój oraz inwestycje w dotychczas niestosowane środki trwałe, w tym: a) budynki, lokale i grunty, b) maszyny i urządzenia techniczne, c) oprogramowanie komputerowe; (2) implementacje nowych wyrobów i procesów technologicznych; (3) współpracę innowacyjną. Wśród efektów innowacyjnych uwzględniono: poprawę jakości, zwiększenie asortymentu, wejście na nowe rynki, zwiększenie zdolności produkcyjnych, obniżenie jednostkowych kosztów pracy, wypełnienie przepisów i norm, zwiększenie elastyczności produkcji, ograniczenie szkodliwości dla środowiska i jednostkowej materiałochłonności i/lub pracochłonności. Badanie obejmuje 374 przedsiębiorstwa. Część metodyczna analiz wykorzystuje modelowanie probitowe, dzięki któremu można określić szansę osiągnięcia wybranego efektu innowacyjnego w zależności od podjętego działania innowacyjnego.

Innowacyjna działalność polega na angażowaniu się podmiotów gospodarczych w różnego typu działania techniczne, naukowe, finansowe, organizacyjne i komercyjne, które mają w zamierzeniu lub prowadzą do wdrożenia innowacji. Działalność innowacyjna jest postrzegana jako źródło konkurencyjności i wzrostu gospodarczego. W artykule dokonano analizy innowacyjności polskich podmiotów gospodarczych w kontekście przedsiębiorstw z innych krajów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej oraz Unii Europejskiej przez pryzmat trzech elementów: odsetka innowacyjnych przedsiębiorstw, nakładów przedsiębiorców na działalność B+R oraz aktywności patentowej w Europejskim Urzędzie Patentowym. Wśród krajów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej największą innowacyjnością mierzoną w aspekcie wymienionych elementów cechują się przedsiębiorcy ze Słowenii, Estonii oraz Republiki Czeskiej, najmniejszą innowacyjność wykazują natomiast podmioty z Rumunii, Bułgarii, Litwy, Łotwy oraz Polski. W Polsce w układzie międzywojewódzkim najlepsze wyniki osiągają przedsiębiorcy zlokalizowani na terenie województwa mazowieckiego, a najmniej korzystne z województw warmińsko-mazurskiego i lubelskiego. Głównym aspektem staje się więc właściwe wsparcie działań innowacyjnych w Polsce poprzez odpowiednią politykę innowacyjną kraju.

Innovative activities are various technological, scientific, financial, organizational and commercial steps which are intended to or lead to implementation of innovations. Innovative activity is perceived to be a source of competitiveness and economic growth. This paper analyses the innovation of Polish enterprises in the context of companies from other countries of the Central and Eastern Europe and the European Union through the prism of three elements: percentage of innovative enterprises, R&D expenditure of entrepreneurs and patenting activities at the European Patent Office. Among the Central and Easter Europe countries, entrepreneurs from Slovenia, Estonia and the Czech Republic rank highest in terms of innovation measured with the three afore-mentioned elements whereas entities from Romania, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Latvia and Poland rank lowest in innovation. In Poland, as far as the voivodeship structure is concerned, the best results are achieved by entrepreneurs located in Masovian Voivodeship and the poorest by those located in Warmian-Masurian and Lublin voivodeships. Hence supporting innovative activities in Poland by means of an adequate country’s policy in this respect becomes the key issue.

Contemporary enterprises should be innovative to survive on a competitive market. Innovations are the basic factor of development of each firm. They must be systematically developed and implemented in all areas of socio-economic activity. The base for the creation of such a system can be a complex diagnosis of the current state of the commonness of introduction of the innovations in particular enterprises. This diagnosis can be conducted on the base of results of the empirical researches, conducted in February 2016 by TNS Political & Social in 28 EU Member States, Switzerland and the United States. These researches, among other things, refered to commonness of introduction of innovations in enterprises. In this publication an attempt to achieve the following objectives is undertaken: 1) conducting of statistical-comparative analysis of the empirical researches on the commonness of introduction of specific types of innovations in enterprises operating in the Member States of the European Union and the United States, 2) verification of the thesis that the commonness of implementation of certain types of innovations in enterprises functioning in the EU Member States is relatively low and varied. The analysis of empirical material allowed to achieve these objectives.

Współczesne przedsiębiorstwa powinny być innowacyjne, aby utrzymać się na konkurencyjnym rynku. Innowacje stanowią bowiem podstawowy czynnik rozwoju każdego podmiotu gospodarczego. Należy je systemowo tworzyć i wdrażać we wszystkich obszarach działalności społeczno-gospodarczej. Podstawą do tworzenia takiego systemu może być kompleksowa diagnoza aktualnego stanu powszechności wdrażania innowacji w poszczególnych przedsiębiorstwach. Na taką diagnozę pozwalają opisane w artykule wyniki badań empirycznych, przeprowadzone przez TNS Political & Social w 28 państwach członkowskich UE, Szwajcarii i USA w lutym 2016 r. w zakresie powszechności wdrażania innowacji w przedsiębiorstwach. W publikacji podjęto próbę realizacji następujących celów: 1) przeprowadzenie analizy statystyczno-porównawczej wyników badań empirycznych (materiał wtórny) nad powszechnością wprowadzania określonych typów innowacji w przedsiębiorstwach funkcjonujących w państwach członkowskich Unii Europejskiej (UE) oraz w USA, 2) zweryfikowanie tezy, że powszechność wdrażania określonych typów innowacji w przedsiębiorstwach funkcjonujących w państwach członkowskich UE jest stosunkowo niska i zróżnicowana. Przeprowadzona analiza materiału empirycznego doprowadziła do osiągnięcia tych celów.

Dlatego przeprowadzono badanie aktywności innowacyjnej firm w krajach UE i w Norwegii w latach 2002–2014, zarówno w okresach recesji, jak i w czasach ożywienia gospodarczego. Empiryczna weryfikacja teoretycznych założeń potwierdziła złożony charakter relacji między działalnością innowacyjną przedsiębiorstw a cyklami koniunkturalnymi.
