Since socio-economic changes and the reforms introduced in the R&D sector opened new possibilities for the Polish research organizations, particularly with reference to research results commercialization, in-depth analyses of case studies and good practices in the area of technology transfer need to be regularly conducted, so that optimal solutions could be found. In the article the author analyses technology transfer support structures in selected European countries. The solutions that are commonly applied are then compared, in terms of the scope of their activity and the effectiveness of the support offered, with the Polish structures of the same type. Based on the results of the comparative analysis, recommendations for the Polish institutions supporting technology transfer are prepared.

A central aim of the Regional Policy of the European Union is a regional cohesion. Major instruments are regional policy programs financed via various European funds. The allocation of regional policy funds varies dramatically across regions even when one controls for regional development indicators. Thus, what political economy factors determine the access to financial support of regional policy funds? With this regard, the paper highlights the role of local government performance. Beyond, it is tested for spatial dependencies, e.g. if knowledge spillovers determine the ability to capture regional funds. Pars pro toto empirical analyses focus on the allocation of SAPARD funds in Slovakia using cross-section as well as panel data. The government performance is measured as a technical efficiency of local public good provision and derived within a non-parametric DEA approach. Results show that the government efficiency has a positive significant impact on the structural funding allocation. Furthermore, spatial dependencies occur. With respect to the program duration, it is concluded that knowledge spillovers take place, supporting a successfully program participation.
