“…Some of studies searched the impacts of organizational creativity on sustainable development in general organizations (Alsabah & Alshura, 2022;Marić et.al., 2022). In this view innovations and creativity are perceived as one of priorities of the program of EU socio-economic development (Hrysenko, 2022), and a positive association of the sustainable economic development and creativity with economic growth in G20 countries is also confirmed (Miar et al, 2022).…”

The turbulence of the organizations’ environment significantly affects the functioning of creative knowledge-based organizations. Changes that occur in this broadly understood environment are often unpredictable, so it is impossible to prepare for them. Therefore organizations must creatively use their knowledge in their response to these changes. Bearing the above in mind, the issue of organizational barriers of sustainable creativity development in knowledge based organizations seemed to be worth the research effort. The paper analyses, synthesizes and compares the theory (regarding the essence of a knowledge-based organization, the sustainable development of creativity in organizations and the barriers that hinder this development), processes empirical data, verifies hypotheses, and provides conclusions and suggestions for knowledge based organizations (both those taking up and not taking creative activities) regarding the minimization of barriers affecting the sustainable development of creativity. The empirical analysis uses the Spearman correlation coefficient, Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney test, W Wilcoxon’s test and simple rotation factor analysis. The results of the research showed significant differences in the following barriers of sustainable creativity development: lack of knowledge on the organization’s vision, goals and plans, poor financial condition of the organization, and fear to present own ideas. Subsequently, with use of appropriate statistical apparatus, the 28 primarily defined barriers were turned out to into the six heterogeneous category – groups of the barriers limiting the sustainable development of creativity in knowledge-based organizations. The results of the study made it possible to identify areas the improvement of those may allow for more effective development of the organization in the scope presented in the paper. The article ends with recommendations that respond to the barriers with the strongest negative impact on the sustainable creativity development.

“…6 By adopting this approach, the smaller organisation can acquire knowledge from the larger organisation, while the larger organisation can also benefit from fresh perspectives and innovative ideas from the smaller organisation. 7 At the level of the European Commission, twinnings are an instrument to facilitate the crossborder transfer of knowledge and technology. They have been used for institutional cooperation between Public Administrations of EU Member States and of beneficiary or partner countries.…”

“…In a broad definition, twinning is a partnership between organisations of different sizes in which the larger organisation provides mentorship, resources and expertise to help the smaller organisation grow and scale up 6. By adopting this approach, the smaller organisation can acquire knowledge from the larger organisation, while the larger organisation can also benefit from fresh perspectives and innovative ideas from the smaller organisation 7. At the level of the European Commission, twinnings are an instrument to facilitate the cross-border transfer of knowledge and technology.…”

IntroductionTwinnings are cross-border knowledge exchange activities where two or more organisations learn from each other’s experiences and are often used as a scaling up mechanism.ObjectivesThis paper discusses the importance of twinning activities in scaling up by promoting community building, knowledge sharing and innovation transfer among stakeholders in European countries. It explores the role of twinnings in the scaling up model of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing) and the Innovation Networks for Scaling Active and Healthy Ageing (IN-4-AHA) project.MethodsThe study employed a qualitative approach, drawing insights from various sources, including the Scale AHA study (2017), the IN-4-AHA’s scaling up model and twinning reports.ResultsThe findings reveal that twinning activities provide stakeholders with a unique opportunity to learn from the know-how of other like-minded partners, improve the quality of their work and iterate on their innovations. They also highlight that twinnings are particularly relevant for some stages in the scaling up process, such as in the assessment of a network of potential partners and during the evaluation of the environment, the innovation could potentially be transferred to.ConclusionTwinnings are highly regarded as community-building and knowledge-sharing activities with clear advantages for companies and other stakeholder groups. Including twinning activities in the scaling up model has proven benefits for companies and projects that have a strong need for community building and innovation transfer.
