Nowadays, the Polish economy faces new developmental challenges. The drivers of growth that so far have driven its dynamic development are gradually shifting their role, while continued progress requires new competitive advantages. Thus, technologies, competences, innovations, and the ability of using knowledge in practice come to the fore.
In this context, what matters most is promoting cooperation between business and science. Although these two domains are frequently more aware of the advantages stemming from cooperation, there is still room for forging stronger relationships and developing more effective models of cooperation. With the right type of cooperation, the potential of the alumni, the knowledge of researchers and the experience of entrepreneurs can be better used to develop an innovative and competitive economy.
Hence, continuous dialogue between the scientific, business, and administrative communities, based on pragmatic cooperation and joint search for solutions that can strengthen the developmental potential and competitiveness of the Polish economy, is crucial.
