Ekonomiczne Problemy Usług (Jan 2015)
Innowacyjność polskich przedsiębiorstw rodzinnych w świetle dotychczasowych badań oraz wybranych studiów przypadku
Abstract
In the theoretical part the paper highlights the most important research carried out in our country, in order to describe and diagnose the innovative processes in small and medium-sized family businesses. In turn, the empirical part consists in the author’s analysis of the two innovative family businesses located in Lodz: The Baker and Confectioner’s Trade “Jaś i Małgosia” and PHARMENA S.A. The purpose of the work is to criticize the stereotype still remaining in Poland on opportunistic, traditional, risk-averse behaviours of family firms in comparison with their non-family counterparts.
