Abstract

The objective of the proposed article is identification of sources and barriers affecting the efforts to “open” innovation processes in Polish organizations. It presents the results of empirical research conducted through a survey on 83 Polish companies from the SME sector. The concept of open innovation, as a new paradigm of innovation management, was first used by Chesbrough (2003).
