“…In summary, measuring the innovation gap means estimating the distance between the economy and the most developed economies of Europe and the world, known today as knowledge-based economies, in many areas, e.g., innovation, education, and the institutional system. Estimating the innovation gap is possible by comparing synthetic measures of innovation (Mielcarek 2013;Weresa 2014, p. 64).…”

The main aim of the paper is to assess the innovation gap between the national innovation systems (NIS) of the European Union (EU) and the average level of innovation of EU economies. The study takes into account NIS identified in the literature, i.e., (a) developed systems and (b) developing systems. In the theoretical part of the paper, the literature in the fields of NIS and the innovation gap is reviewed, the definitions and selected classifications of NIS around the world are presented, and the concept of the innovation gap between countries is defined. In the empirical part, the level of innovation in EU economies is assessed using Hellwig’s synthetic development indicator. In order to measure the level of innovation in individual NISs, arithmetic means of national values of the synthetic measure of development (innovation) are used. The innovation gap is calculated as the quotient between the level of innovation of individual NISs analyzed in the study and the average level of innovation in EU economies. The study covered 2010 and 2021. The paper formulates the following research hypothesis: the level of innovation in EU economies is determined by the type of NIS. Consequently, developing system countries are less innovative and, thus, are characterized by an innovation gap in relation to the EU average. The results of the study confirm the hypothesis. The relationship between the innovation level of the EU economies and the type of NIS, as well as the assessment of the innovation gap between the national innovation systems of the EU and the average level of innovation of the EU economies, constitute the value‑added of the paper.

“…Nevertheless, the analysis shows that the stabilization of revenues and sources of financing was largely conducted through efforts to receive a higher subsidy or/and by soliciting government and local government orders. There was also no significant improvement in the results in the area of inventiveness, which may suggest a low impact of changes on the desired results of innovation [22][23][24][25]. Therefore, the science-business relationship still needs improvement.…”

“…Compared to 2016, its position worsened by as many as three places. Behind it were only: Croatia, Bulgaria and Romania [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. In view of the above circumstances, research on the effectiveness of pro-innovative solutions should be both considered justified from a practical and theoretical point of view.…”

Transfer and diffusion of knowledge and technology is a key condition for the development of innovation. In practice, they take place at the interface between science and business, which makes the level of innovation and development of a given economy depend on the effectiveness and efficiency of universities and other scientific units co-creating the national innovation network. With this important circumstance in mind, this article presents an assessment of the operations of selected research institutes in Poland in 2014–2019 in the context of pro-efficiency statutory changes aimed at making the commercialization of research and development results more effective. The multiple case study used in the article includes five units operating in the field of environmental protection (two) and energy (three)—sectors relevant to the transformation of the national energy sector. The research analyzes the sources of funding of the institutes’ operations, their profitability and the financial effectiveness of their scientific and research staff. The results of the research indicate the adaptability of the surveyed institutes to the new rules of financing and the possibility of their wider than previously opening to business relations, as well as at least partial independence from budget financing. This is a valuable observation from the perspective of shaping innovation policy and the principles of operation of the national innovation system in developing economies.

“…Bearing in mind the above circumstances, the authors of this article undertook the analysis and assessment of the impact of enterprises' innovativeness on the risk of running a business. Research on this issue has been embedded in the Polish economy, classified as an emerging economy, but with a considerable distance to catching up to in terms of innovation in relation to many EU countries [45][46][47]. The last report of the European Commission (European innovation scoreboard 2021-main report) [7] shows that Poland belongs to the group of so-called moderate innovators, but it is only 24th place out of 27 EU countries assessed in terms of innovation.…”

A high level of innovativeness and technology complexity is most often associated with a faster and more dynamic pace of economic development. In turn, it enables enterprises to achieve better financial results and strengthen their competitive advantage. Despite these potential benefits, in practice, innovation is also associated with the need to take up new challenges, which may be accompanied by a higher risk. The main goal of the research is a comparative analysis of the relationship between innovation and the risk of running a business in traditional and high-tech industries exemplified by the Polish economy. The authors assess the risk in 44 enterprises in the years 2010–2020 based on the proprietary evaluation model that uses the variation of financial parameters associated with innovativeness. The obtained results indicate a higher level of risk in the high-tech group with more complex and modern technologies, in particular in the pharmaceutical and computer games sectors. In the group of traditional enterprises, the risk in the analysed sectors is more diversified, and it is much higher in manufacturing enterprises than in services and trade. The empirical and quite extensive nature of the research allows for a practical assessment of the direction and strength of the relationship between innovation, risk and technology complexity.
