Agenda
• The National Innovation System is the flow of technology and information among people, enterprises and institutions which is key to the innovative process on the national level.
• Innovation and technology development are results of a complex set of relationships among actors in the system, which includes enterprises, universities and government research institutes.
National Innovation System in Poland
Central government Administration (Ministries,
Agencies, Fundations, Funds, etc.)
Local authorities (in particularentities responsible for
innovation funding), technological parks, etc.
State-owned Universities, Stateowned Research Institutes, etc.
Private enterprises (inluding big enterprises, SMEs, small
offices/home offices, startups), etc.
private equity/venture capital funds, business angels, banks,
private research entities,
private research entities
State-owned companies, banks.
public-private partnership,
clusters, funds of funds etc.
National Innovation System in Poland - actors
STATE OWNERSHIP PRIVATE OWNERSHIP
• Provide the necessary funding to support researchand innovation activities (increase GERD/BERD, use of EU funds)
• Ensure the continuity of funding for prospective projects at various stages of development - from basic research, through applied research to market implementations and production scaling.
• Support national strategies, in particular –Responsible Development Strategy.
• Ensure the transition towards sectors with higher technological content and value added to sustain strong growth performance
National Innovation System in Poland –identified challenges
